This tutorial will show you how to set up MediaStreamer on your Xbox 360.

MediaStreamer is a DNS service designed to improve your streaming experience. If your device does not natively support VPN, MediaStreamer is a great alternative for streaming.

To use MediaStreamer smoothly, you must register your IP address on the ExpressVPN website. This allows ExpressVPN to recognize your IP address and grant your device access to MediaStreamer.

Note: MediaStreamer is not a VPN and does not offer the privacy and security benefits of a VPN. You cannot change locations with MediaStreamer.

1. Register your IP address on the ExpressVPN website

Go to the ExpressVPN DNS settings page. If prompted, enter your ExpressVPN credentials and select Sign In.

Enter the verification code that is sent to your email.

Under IP address registration, select Register my IP address. If you see “registered” 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.

When you enable this feature, your registered IP address will update automatically every time you sign in to your account on the ExpressVPN website or use any ExpressVPN app while connected to the same network as your Xbox 360. This will ensure continued access to MediaStreamer for all devices on your network.
