Sparky7 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Out of interest (and ignorance) will I be able to download stuff from IPlayer, and also watch catchup TV on my new tablet when I go to France? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mildi Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 You can use the iplayer in France but you will need to use a proxy server (just Google it ) and a good speed internet or you could try logging on to Filmon and you can watch live TV. I am sure there will be lots of other advice coming (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bounty hunter Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 We couldn't get BBC/ITV Players in Spain as they are not allowed to broadcast outside UK. This was very strange as we could, at that time, catch both stations using satellite. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A simple VPN proxy account will 'fool' the UK online players that you're in the UK and not block you. We use StrongVPN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derek500 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 It's around $55 per year and you can have it on several devices, but only use it on one at a time. You can also switch it to other countries, great if you want to watch get blocked US tv. Many use it for Netflix US which is cheaper and better than the UK version!!

The one we used was about £15 for three months, will look up the name later if you like as it's on the laptop. Worked OK but there was a few times that you would loose the connection. When we used it we just logged on to the campsite Wi-Fi and then logged on to the proxy in your available connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
