How do you install Surfshark VPN on a Roku device?

To install Surfshark VPN on a Roku device, a user must first understand that Roku does not natively support VPN applications. Therefore, they'll need to install the VPN on a router or create a virtual router with VPN capabilities on their computer. To proceed, one has to subscribe to Surfshark and then configure the VPN on a compatible router by following Surfshark's setup guidelines for routers. This involves accessing the router's admin panel, installing firmware if needed (e.g., DD-WRT or Tomato), and inputting the Surfshark server details. Alternatively, users can share a VPN-protected connection from their computer by setting up a virtual router with Surfshark running in the background––Windows and macOS have this option. Once the VPN is operating on the router or virtual router, the Roku device can be connected to this new Wi-Fi network, thus encrypting its internet access and allowing the user to bypass geographical restrictions. It's crucial to ensure that your selected server location matches the content you wish to access on the Roku device.
