I have set this up on a Raspberrypi 5, and there appears to be a step missing in that you need to allow the device (TV, firestick etc) to route through the PI. So the last step after turning on Meshnet on the PI is to enter in terminal, nordvpn peer routing allow only then will you see the PI appear on the available routing devices from the TV
@@alexandregabrielribeiro1393 if you were any smarter, you’d click on the chapter with “the point” you care to see and skip the bs you don’t care about. Only takes about 6 seconds then, not 6 minutes! 😉
@@alexandregabrielribeiro1393 It takes 5 seconds to find the part you need if you actually look at the chapters lol. I guess media (books, reviews, videos, etc) shouldn't have introduction and context sections anymore for those that need them because people like you don't have basic navigation skills. smh
Couple questions.. If the rasberry PI power cycles for some reason, do i have to go in again and log into NordVpn and enable meshnet? Is there a way to avoid NordVpn Logging out by itself?
Great video! Btw, I tried using Nordvpn meshnet on 2 devices with different ISP but using same single account. Linked device able to route traffic and ping main device, but unable to go to internet with DNS error notifications. How should I troubleshoot this issue?
Great video! I just have a quick question. If i were to setup a pi on the host network to act as a meshnet point, would I be able to configure another pi on another network that could act as an access point for the whole household that routes all traffic through the host? My smart TVs unfortunately don't have nordVPN available and I don't wanna buy 3 fire sticks lol
Yes, haven't tried it myself but in theory you should be able to install OpenWRT on the 2nd Pi, and use that as an access point, broadcast a new SSID and connect all TVs to that network instead. Should work!
Will this in the future boot right into Meshnet? If not is there a way to make that happen. This would be important should a power failure happen. Also if for some reason the raspberry needs a reboot. I can install something the raspberry pi power can plug into and from wifi I can remove or turn on power to it.
Great video thanks! I've not understand completely how meshnet works. I've a question: I use meshnet and external equipments not under my local lan seems to be at the same home address. So i need to connect to raspberry meshnet with firestick/chromecast/nordvpn app everything is outside my local network. The question is: if I have some pc/tv's at home (main network), they work correctly and don't need to be under nordvpn meshnet, right? Or meshnet creates a different network with a different ip address and everything (at home and in the rest of the world indifferently) need meshnet to simulate that everything is in the same place? Thanks!
No everything at home does not need meshnet. What meshnet does is connect any device *outside* of your home, to your home network. So, from any location outside your home , if you connect via meshnet to the Rasbperry pi that's at home, then that device (outside your home) will appear to be back at home. Hope this helps
hi we just tried this with two android google tvs in separate locations the raspberry pi is in my network . but when I take over the household on my Google tv and route traffic through the raspberry pi the other person with the Android tv immediately gets not part of the household when he tries to play the next show on Netflix any ideas how we can get around this?
Everything seem to go fine until I give the command to turn on the mesh net, but the terminal says I’m not logged in, but it does say I’m logged in on the web browser. Any suggestions?
I have nordvpn and it cisconnects on occasion and i don't realise it has happened. Will this also be a problem on the raspberry pie and how do you know if it disconnects?
Your instructions were perfect for NordVPN. Saying that I have a question. How do I get HDMI audio to work on the same Pi OS? I have tried rasp-config, go to the audio to select the audio output and I do not have HDMI as a choice only headphone. Tried a right click on the Speaker ICON and only choice is analog. I have tried /boot/config.txt removed "#" for hdmi_drive=1 no luck, even tried hdmi_drive=2 no luck tried hdmi_mode=1, hdmi_mode=4 no luck still no HDMI as a choice. Would you have video explaining in your simple and crystal clear method how to do this. It's almost as though the OS is missing what ever is required for HDMI audio. I even tried the FULL version of the OS you state to use for NordVPN Meshnet with no luck I want to watch youtube and my online cable company channel using a browser. Thank you, Ken
Hello. I really liked your video, very explanatory. You have a new subscriber. I have some questions, could you help me? The first question is: 1) Is it necessary that I only use Wi-Fi from my home to the Raspberry Pi device, can I use my mobile hotspot? 2) For the Raspberry Pi to work, will the Wi-Fi or mobile hotspot always have to be connected to the Internet? I say this because suddenly the Internet connection is lost for any reason. 3) Suppose I invite external devices through meshne (friends or family) to join my home IP so that their streaming service works, but suddenly they want to use their web browser or any other activity . Would that be recorded in my home IP, since they are connected to meshne, would it be like a VPN for them? Is there a way that the meshne can only be used on Netflix, be it on TV, Mobile PC so that in this way they can carry out their activities and that they can use their own IP of their Wi-Fi. I don't know if I can really explain myself. Thank you very much in advance for your help

My upload speed is only 15mbps at home, will this not affect the streaming speed when 2 or more external devices connect to the Meshnet at the same time?
As of now, you don’t need to stay connected via meshnet, you simply need to log in once every 30 days. So I would recommend simply connecting via Meshnet, logging into Netflix, and then disconnecting. Process is simple enough to repeat every 30 days. No impact on internet speed then.

Hi Rawan, thank you for the tutorial but a friend and me have one problem that we can't solve. Maybe you know a solution? He did all the settings on his computer and I'm doing the login on VPN with his access data. But there is one point that is missing and very important. When I'm activating meshnet there are no devices found when I'm selecting "route traffic". My friend already tried to solve the problem even with the service from NordVPN😂 but couldn't finde a solution yet. Do you maybe have an idea what's wrong?
Is this because the solution in your previous video doesn't work? With the Rasberry pi then the computer IS on all the time. So can you, as you said in you previous video just connect once a month to keep the subscription open?
Good observation. For now, the solution in my other video still works! But aside from the fact that it might not in the future, there are some use cases where one could be away from home for long periods of time (think 3 months maybe), with no one else home to turn on a computer to connect to. In this case, they can leave a Raspberry Pi on (which barely consumes any power), and connect to it once a month. Or, for example, I’d you set primary location at your elderly parents. Then you can leave the Pi there and on all the time, and just connect to it once a month (rather than teach them how to turn on a computer once a month and enable Meshnet)

Is there anything faster than the pi that doesn’t use up a lot of power and could be kept on for 24/7 that Meshnet can also work on?
How powerful do you want it to be? Would the Pi 4 with 8 gb RAM not be powerful enough for ex?
@@RawansReviews thank you. I will get the 8gb. I’m not familiar with the pi - is there a particular kit I need to buy?

Does your device show up on the host's Meshnet? The host will need to allow your device to route traffic through it.
If i don't have any GUI on my RPi, how do i login?
Very cool solution! 😁👍 Not too complicated... Thanks!
Glad it was of help!
thanks, but doesn't work on Raspberry Pi Zero. I kept getting segmentation fault error

Happy to be of help!
any update bro?
Does the Pi need to be connected to a network all of the time for this bypass to work?
Not at all. For now you need to connect once a month and sign in to Netflix.
Any way to do it without nordvpn?
How about Samsung Galaxy Tab A(2016 is always on Netflix I'm using my nephew wife account so do I wait before July?
