This VPN any good for Australia or are there better, asking for a friend.
The definitive rugby union forum. Talk to fans from around the world about your favourite team

Not good with IOS, don't trust " the best vpn" reviews, most of these sites are paid by the companies, best is to read the latest reviews in the Apple / Android App Stores.odd144 wrote:This VPN any good for Australia or are there better, asking for a friend.

App store reviews are useful. Dunno about "best".lexpat wrote:best is to read the latest reviews in the Apple / Android App Stores.
Is that right? My friend just bought a years license for it. It's half decent, but if he's trying to access the BBC to watch rugby, it's not always there (i.e. the BBC knows that it's coming in from a different country and tells him so).Balls Out! wrote:Oh, and I see that Tunnelbear just got bought by McAfee, so my opinion of them has instantly dropped a few points
I've very rarely had that problem (and have been using Tunnelbear for ~5 years now), though admittedly I don't watch much UK tv now. Just tell your 'friend' to disconnect and reconnect and it'll almost certainly be fine right away if they assign a different IP - the BBC don't seem too fussy about it all. The Sky app, on the other hand, was a right fucking pain in the arse. Maybe it looks at the GPS on your phone/ tablet... even once you get it working it'd periodically drop out.Jeff the Bear wrote:Is that right? My friend just bought a years license for it.

My friend is interested in your 'dedicated UK IP' thing. Will definitely look into that.
