    Hi,
    Really sorry if I'm going over old ground .. but...
    I have a Grundig Freesat HD box, which I find very good, but when I plug in my ethernet cable to try to get BBC iPlayer or ITV player my satbox tells me the service is unavailable,
    is there a workaround or a way of changing modem settings?
    I have WiMax broadband.

    You need a UK IP address for BBC i-Player, possibly for ITV too. So without that, you may forget it (or set up a proxy )

    they use geoblocks, they know from your ip address that you're not in the uk.
    So you need to use a dsn blocker which cost about €5 per month.
    (i think, not 100% sure)

    edit: something like this http://www.unblock-us.com/

    I don't think discussing workarounds is allowed on this forum.
