With tons of cool add-ons available for almost any purpose imaginable, Kodi is a cord-cutters dream. This media player could completely revolutionize entertainment for years to come. Of course, the legality of some of the add-ons and their content is somewhat questionable. This has forced many ISPs to block or throttle the streams.
Fortunately, there is a solution to this. VPNs help in a couple of different ways. The first is that they hide what you are watching and viewing. By creating a virtual tunnel between your device and the content you are accessing, monitoring is completely blocked. ISPs don’t know what you are streaming and, as such, they will not throttle your speed. A second way that VPNs help you access content is by masking your IP address. Many platforms block or restrict access based on your location – for example, Netflix US is different to Netflix in other countries. With a VPN, though, you can log into a server in a different country and get an IP address from that country.
Speed is critical when it comes to VPNs as all of your content is being filtered through them. When selecting a VPN, I always go with Shellfire VPN. Shellfire VPN has servers all around the world and they are really fast. Access is simple through the client software and they even have an innovative device called the Shellfire Box. The Shellfire Box acts as an access point similar to your WiFi router so that everything in your home can access it.
