If you are using a Windows PC, try downloading Hola! Better Internet Connection.

It's a browser-based PROXY extension that lets you select a route through another country (as your IP endpoint) on a domain-by-domain basis. Normally all traffic will travel normally unless you've selected a certain domain name to use another country as an exit point.

Sometimes I have issues getting ebay or amazon to render the page quickly accessing directly. Setting Singapore or USA will usually give me quick accurate access to the site.

As far as International Internet Gateway speed is concerned, most everyone has issues (depending on what Country they're accessing), and even more so at specific times. Way too many Facebook and YouTube users in this country.

I use Hola and it work fine for some sites I need it for.

But others I want seem to be able to block VPN servers and they still know I am not in Australia and block.

I have used Hola to access Australian catch up tv sites. Results are very disappointing. Simply does not work.

If the site only utilize a single domain to deliver content then Hola (or other simple VPN/Proxy-based services) usually works fine.

Austrailia's ABC iView and SBS OnDemand is another matter. The actual streaming system deliver bits and pieces of their content using many domains, with many geo-locations tests. With these sites you need a Full VPN Service.

I am current;y on TOT and when it is working it delivers speeds between 300kbps and 10MBPS. I have an aerial on the garage roof to receive the signal.

Signed up with 3bb yesterday and next week they will run cable to my home from the nearest point which is about 500 metres. Have the 10MBPS package and they have assured me I will get the full speed. Time will tell on that.

My question is there anyone that is watching Iview and SBS on demand from Thailand and if so what VPN are you using?

If 3bb does deliver the promised speeds I am hopeful of watching Iview and SBS and the Aussie rules footy.

Any help is appreciated.

Warning: You should be using a VPN service to protect your privacy, but not this one

I have been using 2 different VPN clients one is Hola for my laptop running Windows 7 professional and one is Surf Easy for my Note 4. Both work on wifi in a large block of apartments all sharing the same wifi connection without any problems. I can watch the BBC and do pretty much anything I want online including accessing and downloading what I want to access and download! Speeds here is around the 20Mps

I use a cracked version of Windows 7 professional on my laptop and Hola is the best all you have to do is disable windows update and run a good antiviral program.

I've been using Hola for nearly 1 year now.
