How do I change my IP address using a VPN?

Asked 2 years ago

Hi there. I am currently visiting abroad for a week and would like to access Disney+ which is geo-restricted in the country that I am visiting. I therefore need to change my IP address to one which reflects one from the US. Any tips for how to use a VPN to change my IP address for this purpose? Thank you in advance!

You must connect to a VPN server with the new ISP port to change your IP address. The VPN server will redirect your traffic through the new IP address and back to the original one. That's how you'll be able to access any website or service that requires an IP address, and they'll see that they've been redirected to a different location!

Moreover, when connecting to a VPN server, you must select one with many ISPs (Internet Service Providers). It means there are more solutions for problems if something goes wrong (like if one of those ISPs goes down).
