How to Install Addons on Kodi 18 Leia
How to install Addons on Kodi 18 Leia using FireStick, Android TV Box, Xbox One, Raspberry Pi, PC, or Mac? The new Kodi 18 version is almost here. While it’s still in its beta phase, we more or less already know what to expect. The interface looks very similar to Kodi 17, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some major changes under the hood. Retro gaming, among other new features, will be possible on Kodi 18. There are basically two methods you can use to install new plugins on Kodi 18: Either by using the pre-installed official Kodi Add-on repository or by using third-party repos. In the tutorial below we will cover both. You can take a look at our favorite addons for Kodi 18 too.

Best VPN for Kodi 18 Leia
Most Kodi 18 addons only work in certain regions such as USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and Germany. To bypass these regional restrictions and watch live and on-demand content on any Kodi plugin you want anywhere you want you have to spoof your location online using VPN. Below are some of the benefits you get when using VPN with Kodi 18 Leia.
- Unblock Geo-restricted Kodi Add-ons: There are a lot of Kodi addons, such as USTVNow, that you can only use in certain regions. With VPN you can bypass regional restrictions.
- Bypass ISP Throttling: Ever noticed that your Internet speed is decent if you are browsing websites but suddenly drops when you are watching videos online? If that is the case, your ISP is probably throttling your Internet speed. Using VPN basically allows you to avoid that from happening.
- Ultimate Privacy: Add an extra layer of privacy and security to all your online activities.
- VPN Applications: You don’t have to be a tech-freak to setup a VPN connection thanks to user-friendly VPN apps on PC, Mac, Android, iOS, and FireStick.
From personal experience, ExpressVPN is the best VPN service you can use with Kodi 18 Leia. They have optimized their VPN apps to work better with Kodi add-ons and have a no-logs policy. Check out our reviewed list of the best Kodi VPNs in 2018 below.

you can see that there are quite a few more. Some worth noting are The Anime Network, AnimeSols, Daisuki, Funimation’s own website, the ambitious Viki, and VizAnime.com (which is not on that list for some reason). To be fair, there is a considerable amount of overlap, as you will most likely see much of their content on Hulu or Netflix.In any case, there certainly are many options for legally watching anime online.

I’m using Kodi 18 for Xbox one and superrepo does not work on it, iv changed expert mode and followed all the steps does it only work for Kodi 17?
You appear to be pretty knowledgeable about VPN. i was wondering if you could possibly assist me if possible. I have IPVanish installed on my PC, HOWEVER, I am using a SB6580 (split modem/router). Im under the impression that VPN software is not supported by split modem/router. Is this true and if this is the case am I truly being serviced every time i connect my VPN or will it automatically appear as if it is connected despite the fact the modem/router I’m using does not appear to have DD-WRT or Tomato firmware
Hello Terry. It doesn’t appear that your router supports VPN. Whenever you connect to a VPN server on your PC, all your Internet connection coming from that PC will be encrypted.
