How to secure your connection to Xbox Live using a VPN.

Acquiring A VPN

This part is really best left up to you. I recommend Hotspot Shield Elite due to the customization, plethora of servers, and priority gaming servers. Once you have acquired a VPN with a good ping for gaming and have installed and set up then you may proceed to the next step on your console.

On Your Xbox

  1. Plugin your ethernet Cord to the back of the console.
  2. The other end of your ethernet cord is going to go into your computer running the VPN (VPN is off).

Process

So basically we are going to use the wifi signal our computer is recieving to share with the ethernet port as a outgoing connection rather than an incoming. Not to be confused with Bridging the connection.

  1. Search for 'View Network Connections' and open it.
  2. Locate your VPN and right click properties.
  3. Goto Sharing and enable network sharing via ethernet.
  4. Save, Reboot your Computer and turn on your VPN. Then Reboot your Xbox.

Changing IP's/Servers

Simply reboot after taking affect to re-establish a valid connection.
