Why wouldn't you use PIA directly on your laptop via their app? You can connect multiple devices all at once and manage the connections separately depending on what you're doing. There may also be a performance benefit to having multiple tunnels, or a separation of traffic to avoid one application slowing another
hi,
i would like to do the exact same thing as hoverdonkey. as described the different ip adress makes problems for me. is that even possible to tether the vpn connection?
This is perfectly possible, you can use "ip rule" to do policy based routing and route tethered traffic through your tunnel. You'll need to NAT the traffic as well (using iptables).
i googled a bit for that but i couldnt find anything special. do you have a link with a guide or a tutorial for me? 
i could do it by my own, found the solution, so thx.
Why don't you share your solution then?
