FAQ

Yes, there are three ways to use PIA with Xbox. Since Xbox isn't directly compatible with VPN apps, your best bet is to install PIA on a VPN-compatible router. You can also install it on your PC and then tether the connection or use PIA’s Smart DNS.

PIA’s Smart DNS can be installed directly to your Xbox, allowing you to change your virtual location directly from your console. The best part about this method is it won’t impact your connection speeds.

Probably. PIA's network is configured to give you the shortest routes possible to your gaming server, giving you a super-low ping. That means faster, more responsive gameplay, and an advantage over your gaming opponents.


Our high-speed VPN servers use 10 Gbps network connectors for blazing-fast game downloads.

It’s possible. If you access location-dependent content using a VPN and the game’s developers have a rule against this, it will be up to them to decide on the consequences if you get caught.


Your VPN use can be discovered by game moderators if multiple users are connected using the same IP address. To prevent this, get your own Dedicated IP. That way other players won’t compromise your access.

When you use PIA’s Smart DNS feature on your Xbox, you get a virtual IP address without sacrificing your speed. Our VPN also protects your console from DDoS attacks, and can lower your ping.


PIA VPN encrypts your gaming traffic to protect your data from prying eyes. This also protects you from ISP bandwidth throttling. Our speed-optimized servers with 10 Gbps network connections give you some of the world's fastest VPN speeds for gaming.

PIA VPN is compatible with all the most popular consoles including PlayStation 4 and 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X & S, Xbox360, and Xbox One. Each PIA subscription allows 10 simultaneous device connections, so you can download PIA VPN on all your smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktops, and more.

It depends on your router, but if you have a compatible router, purchase a PIA VPN plan, and then install PIA on your router. Thereafter, all traffic from your Xbox and other devices connected to the router will be routed through the VPN.
