Which SmartTV can have VPN installed?

[Faslo]

Hi I want to buy a smart tv where I can have the VPN running. Which models are compatible?

Hello @Faslo, Welcome.

If you are interested in the Kaspersky VPN:

As far as I know, it cannot be installed on smart TVs.
It only runs on smartphones and tablets

If TV supports supports installing VPN apps - should work as well (you can get necessary credentials at MyK portal). I guess AndroidTV should support oVPN app.

Hi All!

We have good news:

 

The ability to connect routers and other devices to Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection

 

Consumers can protect their home Wi-Fi network by plugging-in routers via Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection. This feature is also available for any device that supports a built-in or standard OpenVPN® client. If a user links a router to Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection, all devices connected to this router will be protected. 

 

Moreover, users have the opportunity to plug-in devices and operating systems (OS) via OpenVPN to Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection that aren’t currently supported by the product directly. This includes Linux®, Chromebook™, FireTV and AndroidTV, among others. 

This feature is available for premium users. You can get the settings through your My Kaspersky account → Secure connection tab.
