Hi,

I'm trying to set up a mobile hotspot on a Win11 laptop so that the laptop is connected to a public wifi with Freedome active, then sharing that connection as a hotspot for other devices.

The need is to use VPN to allow a TV to connect to this hotspot and access home country content on native apps. Now they are geo-blocked.

This is possible on other VPN providers, but how to set it up with Freedome or is it unavailable?

    Hello @Inioch

    Thank you for your post.

    You can connect to the public WiFi on your Win11 laptop and activate the VPN. After that, proceed to set up a mobile hotspot using the Windows settings.

    It's important to note that while this setup allows you to access content from your home country on your TV, some streaming services may block access when a VPN is detected. This is to adhere to content distribution rights and copyright agreements: Why can't I watch 3rd party streaming services with F-Secure FREEDOME VPN? - F-Secure Community

    If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to reach out.

    Thank you, and have a great day.
