    Justwatch is a great app for checking whats available on all services across different countries. Gives a daily list of newly added movies and shows.

    Mine is working perfectly on FS. Are you using the streaming, iPlayer location and not a generic UK one.

    Hi yes using the bbc iplayer location, it just gives the error 02100 which is the same oddly as if I don't turn the VPN on at all, the VPN works fine with iplayer on my macbook and imac just not the Firestick.

    Change the iplayer ip when you're on the firestick, connect & reconnect a couple of times.
    Another tip someone posted was don't go back to the same programme that gave the error, try another first with the different IP.

    I haven't been using it much lately but it's not worked as well since that iPlayer outage they had

    Has anyone got this working for US prime, I tried the dedicated server and no luck. I just signed up for a 7 day trail on prime video so will likely cancel if it doesnt work.

    as far as I know Amazon set your region on their side and there is no way to circumvent it. I believe it is either done through the address you use for delivery and/or the home country of the credit card you use to pay.

    A lot of folks here on Boards were able to contact Amazon to have their "home" country changed to UK, allowing the Premier League football (which was not part of the Irish package) but I'm not sure that would fly if you were to ask to be switched to the US?

    Anyone been having issues with BBC iPlayer on VPN today? On laptop, tablet and firestick it's not working. Turn it off and the page loads, but then it's no use because you can't watch anything then.

    Both BBC and ITV are blocking now DNS. Looks like games up

      I hope not. Just tried my VPN I use for work and the player worked without issue. I'll have to give the firestick a go again today.

      My smartDNS is working fine on both.
      Both those providers are engaged in blocking any servers they identify and have been for years.
      Changing the DNS server or just disconnect/reconnect always work for me.

      What is the best deal for smartDNS?

      Just FYI, Three's content block blocks this VPN.

      Anyone able to get the BBC iplayer going on the Firestick? I've sound for a few mins but no image and then just stops.

      Reading above others having problems last week.

      Keepsolid works for both


    • Registered Users Posts: 112 ✭✭brandonviewer


      Anyone got any thoughts on Tunnelbear?. I just acquired an Apple TV to stream the bbc player from my phone and have been recommended to use the above. However, have seen some negative comments, admittedly from rival van providers. Would welcome input

      Just notices since Brexit, My prime video account will not play anything really except amazon's own content and Britbox has stopped working also.

      Not sure what server I should set my VPN to, it seems to be blocking my service.

      I tried signing up for Britbox several times recently using my revolut card. It keeps saying that the card has to be registered in the UK. Just wondering how you managed to sign up? Any help would be appreciated thank you!

      Does keepsolid have a UK smart DNS option? I cannot seem to find a VPN/smart DNS provider for watching UK Prime content. I've a few TVs in the house, no way to install a VPN. DOn't want to go installing a VPN router either.

      I am a graduate of a UK university and I had a UK based university account based on Gmail.

      I also needed a UK based GMAIL account to set my LG TV as a UK TV so that I could get google assistant to work. I logged into the UK on my laptop on the VPN and it created a new Gmail account and it was set up as a UK account. I then added this account to my google home account.

      Getflix smart DNS works.

      When you have your UK Google email account, then you pay by Google Pay using that account and when you click on Google Pay, enter your Irish Card.

      Does keepsolid work on the new Chromecast ok?

      Used Prime for first time in a few days and also noticed a lot of the free content unavailable in my region pop up.
      Android TV so installed NordVPN on the TV, selected UK and voila, all Prime free content back watchable

      I've an LG and can only use GetFlix where I set the DNS on the TV to Getflix DNS and you control the settings via the Getflix app

      In the same boat Del007. I've been testing various services this week and getflix was the only one I got working from our smart TVs.
      They have a trial period too fyi.
