[Q] Kindle Fire connect to VPN via Android Wifi tethering?

If one Android device is configured to use VPN by its own wireless network. And then if we turn on the Wifi hotspot AP (tethering) of that Android device.
Now if Kindle Fire can hook that Android device as Wifi AP, can then Kindle Fire use the VPN as well?
Thanks for any useful clue
In theory yes
However i have yet to find apps that allow that to happen in practice. The issue is the routing from the private ip range that the tethering app will provider to your connected guests to the address your phone has been assinged by the VPN.
I have tried a number of applications such as barnacle, foxfi, and the built in android tether in conjunciton with both a SSL and L2TP vpn and not had any luck getting it working yet.
If you find out how I would love to know also. Would be very handy for traveling with the kids and wife etc.

Use DHCP instead of a static IP.
Try a different wifi channel

does fire tv stick require wifi like chromecast?

I would like to get one, but use it on a hotspot/tether from my phone. The chromecast was never able to connect to my cellular hotspot, and it was mandatory to connect to a wifi connection.
Does the fire tv stick have the same restriction? Or can I use my phone's built-in tethering/hotpot and connect it to the firestick?
