I have tried very hard to install a VPN that I purchased called Private Internet Access. All I have done is frustrate myself. Would preferably like to install it at the router. But it will secure 5 devices. Then I tried to put Allcast M2 Plus HDMI component like chrome cast only it allows casting by all forms. I have a Netgear router and a non-smart 60 inch tv. Anyone out there can help me with this or can you give me a techie's name who could assist me.

I am unfamiliar with allcast, but after looking at the specs, I would suggest getting a HDMI extension cable. Decent wireless signal is almost always a problem when a wireless item is behind such a large source of electrical interference( TV set) Amazon sells a 3 foot cable fairly cheap. Also be sure to have power to the adapter.

2) PIA does not appear to support being installed in a router. I may be wrong, but looking over their available info, it does not seem to be supported.
I also feel that is a very limited number of endpoints if you truly are doing this for security purposes.

The only reason I can see for this not working is if your computer setup currently has an existing problem that is
preventing this from being installed.
