Sorry if this is posted in the wrong subreddit. Got my “location” read out to me today, really tired of it, it’s happened before, but today it rubbed me the wrong way. Is there any free or cheap VPNs I can use on Xbox to spoof my location?
You can’t directly run a VPN on the Xbox. There are many free and cheap VPNs available, you’re just gonna have to find one that can work for the method you choose. You can either route the internet from a PC to your Xbox and run a VPN on the PC or you can run a VPN directly on your router if it is supported.
Just as a note, always avoid joining partys with unknown people. They can not only find out where you live but they can also render your internet unusable if they wish to.
A vpn will add significant latency to your game play and your IP is likely already archived on Xresolver meaning a vpn will add little protection without changing your IP before hand. A majority of Xbox parties no longer leak your IP and so just don’t play p2p games on your main account after an IP change and you should be fine.
Got it, I’ll look into that. I didn’t even join their party though, I know of a few websites which have a gamertag to ip address, and the websites want you to pay to have your info removed. Thanks for the help though!
