(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This tutorial explains how you can get your gaming console, television or similar network-capable device to use the VPN via Internet Connection Sharing (ICS).
It has been made for Windows Vista/7;


you can use this tutorial for any network capable devices - computer, laptop, gaming console, NAS drive, TV, etc.
Connection: ADSL router> via WiFi > Laptop > via Ethernet > PS3 Console

First you need to verify your computers IP address. You will need to find what IP addresses
the DHCP router is broadcasting. The common addresses are 192.168.1.X or 192.168.0.X
To check please do the following:


  1. Open network and sharing Center
  2. Click on “Change adapter settings


You must login or register to view this content.


3. Right click on your wireless connection and select “Status".
4. Click on “Details

You must login or register to view this content.


Note down the TCP/IPv4 address (example. 192.168.1.4)

You must login or register to view this content.


Now you will need to setup the shared connection between your computer and the network device.
Since you know your DHCP IP pool (192.168.1.X or 192.168.0.X) you can pick a random IP.
If you have two or more computers/devices IP’s from 192.168.X.100 to 192.168.X.200 should be available.
In this tutorial we will use 192.168.x.115
To configure your ICS, first thing to do is to set your computer to have a static IP address:


  1. Open “Network and sharing Center
  2. Click on “Change adapter settings



You must login or register to view this content.


3. Right click on “Local Area Network” and click “Properties
4. Highlight “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click “Properties



You must login or register to view this content.


5. Under the “IP address” enter the IP address you picked (In our case 192.168.x.115)



You must login or register to view this content.




6. Under “Subnet mask” enter "255.255.255.0"
7. Press “OK” and save your settings.

Next thing you should do is to create L2TP connection.

Short instructions:

Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network And Sharing Center > Set up a new connection or network > Connect to a workplace > Next > Use my Internet Connection (VPN)
Internet Address: The L2TP server IPs can be found @ You must login or register to view this content.
Destination Name: Name it as you like. Eg: HMA! L2TP.
Next
Username: Your VPN username
Password: Your PPTP Password. Can be found at You must login or register to view this content. > PPTP Servers > Login Details
Domain: Leave it blank
Go back to Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings > Select HMA! L2TP (the one you just created) > right click and Properties > Security tab > Type of VPN: L2TP/IPSec > Advanced Settings > Use Preshared Key for authentication > Key: HideMyAss > OK
Connect!
