SHIELD TV VPN kill switch?

by AkashKS

I have an NVIDIA SHIELD TV (2017) running v8.0.1(32.5.205.75). I'm in the UK if that makes a difference.

I'm in the process of setting up a VPN on it using OpenVPN for Android .

I'd like to enable a kill switch, and as such am looking for the VPN settings (per here ). (I'm aware this guide is aimed at Android phones and tablets rather than Android TV, but I was hoping to find similar settings on the SHIELD.) My VPN provider is Mullvad.

If these settings aren't an option on the NVIDIA SHIELD TV, I'd really appreciate if someone could link a more relevant guide to enabling the kill switch on the NVIDIA SHIELD TV.

Thanks in advance!

I also want to know this. Seems silly to not be possible. My von provider app has a vpn kill switch option, but I don't trust it.

Openvpn for Android has a killswitch option, it's called "persistent tun"
