Before you proceed, please set up your Google Wifi.

1. Register your IP address on the ExpressVPN website
Go to the ExpressVPN DNS settings page. If prompted, enter your ExpressVPN credentials and click Sign In.
Enter the verification code sent to your email.
Under IP address registration, click Register my IP address. If it already reads âregisteredâ next to your IP address, there is no need to select this option again.
Toggle Automatically register my IP address on. This is recommended as it automatically tracks changes to your IP address.
Once you have enabled Automatically register my IP address, be sure to keep your registered IP address updated by periodically signing in to your account on the ExpressVPN website. Alternatively, you can use the ExpressVPN app (on any device) while connected to the same network as your Google Wifi. These actions grant the devices on your network continued access to MediaStreamer.
