And if so how?
Forgive my ignorance, but I have tried on my own and could not figure it out.
Any help would be much appreciated.
You should be able to just install the Android app version of Google One VPN. ChromeOS will use the VPN connection.
You need a Chromebook that can (and is allowed) to run Android apps. Then all you need to do is install the app and turn on the VPN: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.subscriptions.red&hl=en_US&gl=US
Not the one that comes with the pixel 7
Does anyone know the official sub for chrome developers? I kinda want to get into developing apps for chrome book.
OP could always turn on VPN from Pixel phone, turn on hotspot from their Pixel, then connect to the hotspot from their Chromebook. It’s a roundabout way, but can be done… sorta.
No such thing anymore. ChromeOS can run Linux, android or PWA apps only and there are plenty of places to learn to code for those.
Nope, i tried it it works only on the phone.
This does not work, fyi. Using a different VPN service, I hot spotted from my phone to a chromebook and the laptop did not benefit from the VPN connection. If the VPN is on traffic coming in and out of the phone, it is by definition between the radio and the chip. If the hotspot to share a wifi or data connection is done as efficiently as possible, then the radio just re-transmits the first signal as a secondary one, without needing to be processed by the phone and thus encrypted by the VPN.
You need a VPN on both devices.
Hmmm. Didn’t know this!
It works on my Acer 516 GE.
You’re 100% correct. I was wrong.
The free vpn ? Or the paid one
Ah, good question. I pay for Google One’s 2TB tier.
That one you can share, the one that comes with pixel 7 is not.
