ghworker2010 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I want a non U.S based VPN that is good / reliable and that has a 'workaround' for bbc player. Can you assist? This excludes PIA and IPvanish thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooked Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I have tried different VPNs, browsers, extensions. The BBC gets around to blocking all of them eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAZ3 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I know originally from the US,but they have a Gmbh address is Hotspot Shield. I use it for BBC iPlayer,SKY and Netflix(both UK and US),other Countries are available. I did have a problem once,but I contacted them and they had a fix within a few days and thanked me for advising them. I normally pay $20 for the Elite yearly service.

worgeordie Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Okayfreedom is a German company, they are offering a years free subscription on Giveawayradar website that offers free apps daily. Browsec also works ok but they are Russian based,also free. Zenmate also a German based company,easy to use,but need to pay if you want to use for UK . regards Worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullie Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Hola always works for me. Sometimes you have to change the IP a few times, mind! Plus it's free (I'm dutch). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Hola unlocker still works for the BBC but several IP changes may be needed (click the UK flag and choose 'fix it'). StrongVPN has a BBC solution, costs about a dollar a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpinx Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I'm looking for a solution that will allow me to put just my browser through a VPN, but nothing else. Firefox can be configured for a proxy, but finding a proxy that will get BBC etc to work is a bit of a problem... unless you have found one?

Firefox can be configured for a proxy, but finding a proxy that will get BBC etc to work is a bit of a problem... unless you have found one? Try Anonymix (sp?) from Germany. Get it as an add-on from Firefox. Limited to 500mb a day free or $5.89 US/month. I've been using it for 2 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind paying for a service that actually works Have you been using both BBC and ITV players on it without issues? Edit to add..... Installed and running ok, definitely slows the connection down, but that's normal for a proxy. Will try the players soon.

roberta Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Can anyone tell me of a site that streams movies and US drama series in 1080p (or at least 720p) for free? And has enough bandwidth to not keep re-buffering? I would love to hear of one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
