Anyone willing to share vpn access?
Looking for a good and reliable vpn service.
I am not an heavy user I would use on one device only

Anyone else having issues with expiry again on keepsolid? Tried the logout and login and it still says expired.

I updated the app and it sorted it for me.

Hi I have keepsolid VPN trying to use it on iPad 5 to access Netflix but keeps showing the Irish one, is there something I'm doing wrong? Instructions on their site are fairly straightforward

I had problems accessing other Netflix but turning off ipv6 sorted it.
I don't know much about ipads but I think they don't allow this on the device so you might have to apply it to the router (how to go about this I think will depend on the router you have)

It worked for me this morning when I immediately tried it again but I agree, it's wildly inconsistent.

I find sometimes with iPlayer that even if it says "Something is Wrong" if you just try again without changing server it even works.

I find that if I've accidentally tried to watch something on a non uk server or my own IP and I get that error, that I will continue to get that error for that specific episode I try to watch, but anything else is ok. After a while it will fix itself out but typically never works immediately after an attempt that brings up that message.

ThePott

It was working for me earlier, the other UK ones were working as well.
There has been a few times where it has stopped to buffer but aside from that been fine.

Is the specific BBC iPlayer server working or do you have to select another server in the UK ?

ThePott

I'm watching something on iPlayer right now through Firestick.
I will say at times I find it works better using the non-streaming servers.

Is the bbc iplayer issue fixed ?

I think it only applies if you pay for a service. Bbc and rte are free

Isn't there some sort of EU law stating that it should be viewable all over the EU?

If you reside in the jurisdiction it should be available outside it

I don't think so. Unless it's a recent change you needed a vpn to watch RTE player outside the island of Ireland

And because they sell their content to English-language TV stations all over the world. If iplayer was freely and easily available all over the world then BBC wouldn't earn as much revenue from their content

I'd imagine it's for legal reasons. Probably something to do with not having a broadcasting licence here.

Why do the BBC put so much effort into restricting the iPlayer and enforcing the Geo lock does anyone know?

It's not like we in Ireland don't get their TV channels? Maybe they should look at introducing a version of the iPlayer to coincide with their sky/,virgin packages that we pay for here.

Maybe even offer a sub only available version, so if your paying sky legit you get access? I dunno if that's possible even.

IPlayer came back to full screen for me today but it's buffering constantly, unwatchable. I have good broadband speed so it's not that.

Yes it's fine as long as you keep ipv6 disabled

my smart dns is set up with an irish and uk address and works at device or router level, vpn for iptv is a different thing but best not to go into that on the thread

So go with the smart dns on my mesh router and keep VPN on for other activities

Just my paranoia but I prefer a vpn (tinfoil hat too!).
Netflix and Hulu work fine with ipv6 off anyway

el Fenomeno

What VPN is recommended to cover 3 devices (Firestick, Android Phone and Windows Computer) where speed and reliability is the main concern, price being a secondary concern only?

In particular the Firestick, used for streaming via catch up apps, Netflix and IPTV.

I have a VPN with smart dns

Is it as simple as reconnecting to your wifi and use the smart dns?

Would this do away with the need for the VPN to be connected for IPTV etc?

I have two firesticks running, one had the problem you mention so I applied the fix and the other was firing up as normal. Now both fire up and go through all the normal procedures to sign me in but neither will play content.
It seems to be IPlayer only as ITV and MY 5 work fine.

Mine was working last night after resetting and turning off auto-update but BBC do seem to be cracking down.
I will check it again tonight when I get home.
After a few years of never a bother it's getting tougher of late
