How to watch UK TV in NZ
 

The triathlon world champs starts tomorrow in London. Triathlon live TV online wont let me watch because I am outside Europe. :thumbdown::(

Ay ideas on what UK proxy servers are best for enabling UK TV? I am also missing strictly! :(

Free or paid, don't mind, I just need it to be reliable!

Thanks!

I've tried a few different ways to stream live TV from the UK and there's always one major stumbling block. Because there's only one already over loaded cable connecting NZ to the rest of the world the international Internet speeds are too slow. I've got an app on my iPhone that gives you 100's of TV channels including all the UK Freeview ones and you're lucky to get 20 seconds of TV before it stops to buffer.

The app is called Film On if you want to try it. I've also tried different VPN's and failed every time. I'd got my Nintendo Wii rigged up with BBC iPlayer through the TV via a VPN, that would have been perfect but yet again, too slow.

Let me know how you get on.

When I lived in Europe I used to watch Brit TV using StreamVia - cheap and pretty reliable, too. Only problems we had were during the 2012 olympics... Then again, I think that every provider probably had the same problems as us.

Tunnel bear, not had any problems.

Hiya.

Can you provide a link to the stream you want to view? I use unblock-us.com, which is awesome for Netflix and iplayer.

I'd recommend Go Trusted. It allows you to set your IP address to a server in UK, Europe, Asia or US.

I watch BBC iplayer and ITV player through Hola on my laptop, pad or phone and it works fine and only buffers now and again. I also download off iplayer and watch later. You can get someone in the Uk to get a slingbox and give you the password so you can watch Uk freeview over here. At the moment i get 4.8mps constant so not to bad.

I use expatshield to view some programmes from BBC I player

I use some other stream sites to watch championship matches on Sky Sports, the broadcast can stop start but it's ok.

Although I always go and do something else whenever the adverts come on. Whilst the adverts here aren't the best, not having some delibrately hurt yourself, ring us and we'll get you $20,000 compensation advert - or even worse a car insurance comparison advert is quite refreshing

Having said that, one of my worst nightmares came on whilst watching the joyful River Monsters on Animal Planet. I never realised Australia had comparethemarket! I thought I got away from that pesky meerkat - arrrrgggghhhh!! The TV almost got smashed. I think someone needs to get Prince Nikolay Stronganov III family member to eat that pesky russian meerkat slowly

Doesn't work: security on 4OD and BBC blocks you on that one.

If you find one please let me know, ones I previously tried just gave me a virus
Thanks

This is great, but you have to be a Slingshot customer

Re: How to watch UK TV in NZ
 

Once again I am going to recommend www.unblock-us.com

Virus free, easy to setup and you can change your "location" to the US or UK, depending on what service you want to use.

Re: How to watch UK TV in NZ
 

is this a new feature? I used their service last year and my TV always thought it was in the us. where do you set the location and does it actually think you are in the UK?

I have switched to a proxy solution but can't watch sky go on demand or 4od.

cheers.
