Hi. I got a VPN so I can watch TV shows in other Countries. However when I turn on the VPN and pick a country when I try their TV shows try it simply says “You must be in country to access this content”. (I have only tried UK and USA so far). So basically the VPN isn’t making it look like I am from the country I request. Am I doing something wrong? I’ve twice spent almost an hour fluffing around with this without joy. Should I just cancel my subscription.
Whilst I don’t use a VPN, there are some sites that can tell if you are using one and block it. How they do this I don’t know.
In the forums if my memory serves me right, I have seen something in the forums about using ‘Wonderland’ as a VPN selection to see if that can bypass this restriction. I’m not sure if this is also an option in the Avast SecureLine VPN for iOS.
I think the BBC is very proactive in trying to block VPN use, as to use it you have to be a BBC licence payer.
