Hi All,

A few months ago I discovered that by using a service to change my computer?s IP address I could then watch British TV online.  I contracted this IP through TVAbroad.net and pay 15 euros per month.  Up until recently the service was fine (except when there was football on which made it practially impossible to watch anything - very jumpy picture, presumably due to high demand) - but this week I?ve had a few technical problems and was therefore wondering if anyone knows of anyone else who offers a similar service which works well.

Thanks!!

We use ukproxyserver.co.uk - never had any problems and I think they are a little cheaper than that.

But the Apprentice and Ashes to Ashes both finished last week - we are entering TV drought season - makes you wonder ‘why bother?’

I have always used the below toolbar and works just fine. $25 a year via Paypal. Sometimes the UK Proxy goes down, maybe every 2/3 months - I just email the support line and they give me a new set of numbers to use.

This is not a dodgy effort, they are somewhat secure / premium and not available via “google”.
Works just fine on IPlayer 😉 Includes loads of U.S Proxies also.

Just be sure when you enable the toolbar not to have any other tabs or windows un-enabled as this confuses WIE fyi.
Free trial 😊

Agreed - but at the moment my current work location cannot provide a dish.
So the internet is all I have at this time.

Used the hell out of this service since before Christmas..

Does the job 😊
