VPN help.

I’ve tried using guides on here to set up a VPN on my PS4 to be able to get dominion, but my PS4 won’t connect to any VPN I make. Has anybody actually successfully set up a VPN and played in other regions like japan?

I haven't but I have friends who have used this method to get this particular trophy so I know it works. Try this https://www.techadvisor.co.uk/how-to/game/how-use-vpn-on-ps4-3670694/

or this https://www.purevpn.com/blog/ps3-vpn/

 

From what I gather you need to set your router up on a vpn then connect through a lan cable to your pc. If your trying to connect your ps4 to a vpn, that might be your issue.

Unfortunately my router doesn’t support me adding VPN settings, when I set up the VPN all my devices can connect no problem, except the PS4.

which vpn are you using may i ask?

have you tried this method:

Set up PS4 VPN via your PC

There’s also a way to connect to a VPN on your PS4 using a PC – it’s essentially the same method as connecting with a Mac but utilises the Windows equivalent of Internet Sharing. As with above, make sure you’ve signed up to a VPN provider – you can take a look at our choice of the best gaming VPNs if you’re unsure of who to pick, but again our VPN of choice is NordVPN.

1. Install the VPN software of your choice on your PC.
2. Plug an Ethernet cable into the back of your PC and the PS4.
3. Open Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center and select Change Adaptor Settings on the left-hand side of the window.
4. Right-click on the icon with the title of your chosen VPN and click Properties.
5. Open the Sharing tab and make sure ‘Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection’ is selected.
6. Select Home Networking Connection and select the home internet connection from the drop-down menu that you’d like to share with your PS4.
7. On your PS4, go to Settings > Network Settings > Set Up Internet Connection > Use a LAN Cable and select the Easy connection method. This will automatically scan and set up your Ethernet connection.
8. Select “Do Not Use a Proxy Server” when prompted.
9. You can test your internet connection if you want, and if all has gone well, your PS4 should now be connected to the internet via a VPN.
