Good day,
I can stream HBO via NordVpn to my UK Laptop, but not my Smart TV unless i cast it from my L/top, which isn't convenient for the rest of the family.

So I'm after a replacement Router with an OpenVPN client to replace my BT Home Hub 6, which will route traffic for HBO over the NordVPN otherwise send it out over the standard BT network.

Would someone able to recommend a device that would provide this capability please.

I also wonder if I should purchased an openreach modem to increase my options, unless the new router has this built in.

Hopefully,
Just
 
Hi BigT and thanks for you initial response.

I would like to maintain enough speed to be able to stream HBO via NordVPN as I can using my HH6 and I suppose to around £150
 
Many thanks!

I'm really looking for options...NordVPN had made some recommendations in the following link, but in my ignorance as a novice, i would not know if these are compatible with replacing a BT HH6.

Perhaps my question should be; what are the minimum requirements to replacement a BT HH6 that would allow traffic routing via Nord VPN so I can stream Films etc? At this stage I'm only interested in routing to receiving HBO Streams in the UK and have the other traffic route as standard (of course this may evolve over time).
 
Many thanks everyone - using a smart DNS service allows me to connect with excellent stream quality at a fraction of the price. I may still explore replace my router is thing change.
