This step-by-step guide will show you how to install VPN on LibreELEC with Zomboided VPN Manager plugin.
LibreELEC is a fork of Kodi based on the Linux operating system and carries the tagline, “Just enough OS for Kodi.”
Most people use LibreELEC on their Raspberry Pi devices.
The Raspberry Pi is a credit card sized computer that hobbyists use to build various projects that require a small computer. As of this writing, the most recent model is the Raspberry Pi 4 and LibreELEC runs beautifully on this small box.
Since LibreELEC is based off the Linux Operating System, we can easily install an Open VPN Kodi addon that works very well.
In this guide, I will be using Quad VPN as my VPN service provider for a few reasons.
Quad VPN is the fastest VPN available which is extremely important when streaming large video files through LibreELEC.
They don’t store any logs which means everything that I stream is completely anonymous.
And best of all, Quad VPN works great with LibreELEC which you will see in my tutorial below.
You can use your Quad VPN account on unlimited devices so everything connected to the Internet can be protected.

I will be using the Zomboided VPN Manager in LibreELEC to manage my Quad VPN connection.
A huge thanks goes out to the developer behind the Zomboided plugin as it provides some nice advanced options which I get into in my video below.
You will find both a video tutorial and screenshot guide located below. I suggest using the video tutorial as I provide tips that I don’t cover in the screenshot guide.
