Set up the device that runs Kodi
Kodi is an application, not a network platform. The useful setup route depends on whether Kodi runs on Android TV, Fire TV, Windows, Linux or LibreELEC.
Steps
-
Complete the guide for the device that runs Kodi: Android TV, Google TV, Nvidia Shield, Fire Stick or Fire TV with Fire OS, Windows, Mac, Linux or LibreELEC. Kodi does not run on Vega OS. Where the guide uses WireGuard, create a separate Dashboard profile for the device that runs Kodi.
Create a separate profile for the device that runs Kodi. 
Import it using that device's guide. -
Connect TekLan VPN at operating-system level.
-
Confirm the public IP address has changed.
-
Open Kodi only after the VPN connection is active.
If Kodi still uses the normal route
- Close and reopen Kodi after connecting the VPN.
- Confirm the host device, rather than a different device on the network, is assigned to the router policy.
- Check for split-tunnelling rules that exclude Kodi or its host.
- Do not install an unverified Kodi “VPN add-on” in place of an operating-system or router connection.
