BBC iplayer
Re: BBC iplayer
Smarty is still off.
Shame, I was looking forward to Inspector Montelbano. Hope they sort it soon as the programme only available for 7 days....

Re: BBC iplayer
BBC app on TV shows network error, and I cannot look at any BBC site on the computer, even just the ordinary news pages. Nothing from the BBC will load at all. I have SmartyDNS, do you think all BBC web pages have been blocked?

Re: BBC iplayer
That's just wiped the smile of my face as SmartDNS seems to fail at the moment aswell on both vpn and DNS redirect. Can get to all their news webpages and iplayer. Just can't play a stream.

Re: BBC iplayer
Try using Browsec extension from Google Chrome webstore on your Computer set to U.K (obviously if you are using google chrome browser).....this will work for everything inc iPlayer Until SmartyDNS get sorted outWicksey wrote:BBC app on TV shows network error, and I cannot look at any BBC site on the computer, even just the ordinary news pages.

Re: BBC iplayer
Thanks, I do use that on the computer but haven't needed it again since I've got the DNS. That works OK for looking at the BBC website on the computer (OH likes to read their sports pages).

Re: BBC iplayer
SmartDNS just given me a couple of new DNS server address which at the moment are allowing me to watch iplayer. Can't fault their service.

Re: BBC iplayer
I've just changed back. Now working again. I must have done something wrong.
Re: BBC iplayer
Not working on my TV at the mo. Showing network error again. Not got computer on so not sure if it's just the TV. Other catchup are OK.

Re: BBC iplayer
On my Mac and iPad, I get the not in UK message. On the TV the app starts, but just hangs up. ITV Hub works OK on the TV so it isn't a connection problem.
I have an ASUS VPN enabled router arriving tomorrow so that I can use the SmartyDNS VPN option. Does anyone else use a VPN in their router to get iPlayer? If so, is it working now?
The Chrome VPN extension works fine.

Re: BBC iplayer
Not installed on a router but have got Smarty VPN installed on Macbook and running through London (Beckenham so says ip look up) and BBC Iplayer is having none of it at the moment.....so doesn't bode well for installing the VPN on Router....but fingers crossed
"The Chrome VPN extension works fine." Which one ?? Not working with Browsec - Hola At present but were intermittently earlier
EDIT: But boy does the VPN throttle the download speeds......less than half of when just using the DNS......DNS - 304mbps --VPN - 106MBPS......NOT GOOD
