BT Halo 3 & VPN ?

Good afternoon,

Is it possible to install my Bitdefender VPN account on my BT Halo 3, please...?
Thank you, Stevie

As Halo3 is simply a benefits add-on, its difficult to see how you could do so.

If you mean the BT Smart Hub2, then no, you can't.

I believe it could be worse than that, as EE mobile internet uses CGNAT, and Bitdefender struggles with this. So even running the VPN client on your laptop/mobile/etc, it could struggle when using the Halo 3.

I think you are confusing Halo3 with Halo3+ which utilises a 4G EE modem.

BTW, there is no Halo3 or Halo3+ device, it is just a marketing term for the benefits package.
