My brother moved to belgium recently and I gave him my rooted FireTV but sideloaded VPN apps are a bit of a pain in the bum. Are there any other decent alternative boxes for Kodi/iPlayer/Youtube that dont need rooting and work well with all (or at least most) apps from the Play Store?

Cheers.
 
I did suggest running the VPN on the router but he doesn't actually want every device in the house to run through the VPN (i dont know why), just the FireTV.
 
That can be done with decent routers. Setting the VPN in the router doesn't necessarily mean all the outbound traffic has to be pushed to the VPN. With DD-WRT you can configure policy based routing, and explicitly list the IPs you want to reach through the VPN.

I dont suppose you know of any guides on how to do this as i'm not too familiar with DD-WRT?
