Can you run a VPN if you're hard wired into the modem?

I have a Kodi box that I have hard-wired into the modem for faster connection. Can i still use a VPN or would I need to run Kodi with wifi?

Yes, IPVanish (for instance) works on pretty much every device I have whether it be on Lan line, wifi, or using phone data.

Yes.


A VPN occur over the internet. It doesn't matter where inside your network a device is, it must travel through your modem to get to the outside internet.

Yes you can flash firmware on to a router and then load what ever service you use on there.

Not all modems/routers are compatible and you could end up bricking them.
