Le Fire TV Stick 4K is without a doubt one of the best video streaming solutions today, with a quite unbeatable quality / price ratio. But, despite being a subscriber to many perfectly legal streaming services, you may experience some frustration about not having access to all of the content on your platform. The solution? It's NordVPN!
Likewise, there may be times when you want "Listen to ostis of good films" that you can't find with us, or even wanting to use your HDMI dongle in a hotel or vacation rental without risking your credentials leaking and exposing your equipment to hackers. In short, you may have understood, we are talking about the idea of calling on a VPN for Fire TV Stick !
Eh? What's that? It's all done!
Prerequisite: have a Amazon Fire TV Stick
We talk about it regularly: the key to streamingAmazon is ideal for connecting all televisions as we regularly explain in our tutorials and tests Amazon Fire TV.
Why use a VPN?
- Security : the use of a VPN is particularly recommended, not to say essential, on public Wi-Fi networks: hotels, bars, restaurants, libraries, train stations and airports. Indeed, open Wi-Fi networks are real playgrounds for hackers who wish to access your personal data, sometimes just for fun, but more often with bad intentions.
- Access French services from abroad and vice versa: more and more services are setting up geographic restrictions, including television channels, video streaming platforms like Netflix or Prime Video, music services like Spotify or Amazon Music Unlimited, and generally even banks! If you are traveling or living abroad, it may therefore be worthwhile to bypass this limitation. Note, however, that connections from abroad to consult your bank account in France may be interpreted as hacking attempts. So be careful.
- Overcome limitations: access the Internet without limitation in certain countries which filter communications such as China, to name but one, and secure your connection by encrypting it end to end.
NordVPN on Fire TV Stick: a simple, fast and cheap VPN
It is NordVPN that we have chosen as an example today. Why? Because it is one of the fastest and most reliable VPNs on the market, because the company has more than 5 servers in 660 countries, but also because NordVPN does not store our data as evidenced by its certification following its audit by PricewterhouseCoopers.
In addition, NordVPN is of a childish simplicity to put in place since it offers apps for all platforms : Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android TV and therefore Fire TV. Usually you just need to install it and click on "Connect" for secure the device where you installed the app. We could not manage to be simpler!
