VPNs

[Swartzy]

Helps if you want to watch online and not using a sat dish and box. I'm on the edge of the Sky footprint so the slightest movement and I lose signal.

Yeah, good point..
Was thinking if sky went down so would your broadband/internet, but if your using other broadband then your prob be fine..

If one had a snide fire stick and one wanted would a free VPN make a positive difference to one’s stream stability?

Most likely not, but it would cover your ass.

I use express and it works for the snidely firestick just fine

Just show the Government your face and they will let you watch as much porn as you want lads.

I left your firestick dude cos it was poo im afraid. The 1 I have now is much more reliable.

Been on eBay hey

Say you had a firestick with a VPN, what country would you use to ‘hide’ behind?

No Joey, I dont use Ebay.

I use Hotspot shield when I'm in the Middle East, never had a problem with it.
They do a free version but obviously the paid version is better.

(Apparently) SurfShark has a little circle symbol that shows how "full" their server is in each country. If I had one, theoretically, the likes of Slovakia and Slovenia don't get much traffic and give good speeds. Austria (apparently) was good speed yesterday

Someone I know who has a firestick uses Digibit and according to that person it works very well to watch the footy

….i purchased NORD to help me access my betting accounts whilst on holiday. Can’t remember how much I pay, I can get on most firms but not all when I’m away. It’s not like I’m betting daily but I like to have access in case a good Cheltenham offer comes along.

NORD is fine for my purposes, I’ve literally just got home from Kos and switched it off because I don’t need it at home. Didn’t know VPN is used for anything else.

Had Nord for a couple of years, it was good. If you go through cashback sites to buy your vpn subscription you can usually get most of the money back - topcashback and Quidco are good cashback sites.

Windscribe is generally decent. There is a free one you can use with quite limited countries, but the full version is fairly cheap and they often have deals on. The desktop client can take a wee while to connect at times, but the browser extension is really handy.
