I thought it wasn't possible running a VPN on PS4? If you even can, I found this, you can try it:

Setup VPN on PS3 and PS4 through Windows:
1. First make sure you have PureVPN's Windows software installed and working on your Windows device.

2. Connect your PS3 or PS4 to your computer using a crossover cable.

3. Click the ‘Windows Menu Button’ at the bottom left hand of the screen.

4. From the menu list, click Control Panel.

5. Once Control Panel window opens, click ‘Network and Sharing Center’.

6. Click ‘Change Adaptor Settings’ on the left hand side of the screen.

7. Right click on the icon titled ‘PureVPN’ and then select the option titled ‘Properties’.

8. Once the properties window is displayed, open the tab titled ‘Sharing’.

9. Now, place a check mark on the option titled ‘Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection’.

10. Click on the option titled ‘Home Networking Connection’. It will reveal a drop down menu with your available internet connections, and possibly a connection titled ‘Xbox’. Select Xbox (if it is available) and if it is not available, then click on the connection you want to share with your console.

You must login or register to view this content.


11. Click “OK”

12. Now, connect your computer’s PureVPN Windows App to PureVPN’s desired server.

13. On your XMB menu on PS3 or PS4, go to ‘Settings’ and then select ‘Network Settings’.

14. Under the ‘Network Settings’ tab, select ‘Set Up Internet Connection’.

15. Now select ‘Use a LAN Cable’ when prompted.

16. Now, select connection method as ‘Easy’. This way, the PS3 or PS4 will automatically scan your Ethernet connection.

17. Click on ‘Awesome faceo Not Use a Proxy Server’ when prompted.

18. Now, accept all settings after a careful inspection and continue for a ‘Test Connection’. You’re done!

This is for PureVPN, but you can try to use the settings and follow the steps with your original one.

Seeing as Hydrogen's tut on VPN is solid, and you haven't reported any problems since, I'll be closing this thread. You're welcome to make a new thread or contact me to reopen. Cheers.
