This guide explains how to use CyberGhost with a PlayStation by sharing a VPN connection from a Windows PC using Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). Once configured, your PlayStation will route its internet traffic through the VPN connection on your computer.

Connect Your PlayStation to the Shared VPN Connection
Before You Start
Before you begin, make sure you have an active CyberGhost subscription and the CyberGhost app installed on your Windows PC. You should also have a stable internet connection (preferably via an Ethernet cable for better reliability), ensure your system is up to date, and confirm that your network adapter is working properly.
Important: This setup requires two active network connections on your Windows PC. One connection is used to access the internet (for example, via Wi-Fi or Ethernet), and the other is used to share that connection with your PlayStation, typically through an Ethernet cable. If your PC doesn’t have an Ethernet port, you may need a USB-to-Ethernet adapter.
Enable Internet Connection Sharing on Your Windows PC
-
In the Start menu, type network connections and select View network connections.
-
Right-click the active connection used by CyberGhost and select Properties.
-
Go to the Sharing tab.
-
Check the box labeled Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection.
-
From the dropdown menu, select the Ethernet connection that’s connected to your PlayStation.
- Click OK to save the changes.
Connect your PlayStation to your Windows PC using an Ethernet cable. On your Windows PC, make sure CyberGhost is installed and running before proceeding to avoid connection issues.
