Is it a free VPN? I wouldnt bother with them when for a few quid you can get the real thing on evil bay

Nah I pay for Surfshark.

It’s strange, I’ll set it to any of the DM countries listed and it never works for me. Maybe I should switch VPNs.

IP Vanish works fine for me 👍

I would. I had the same issue with Nordvpn. No issues at all with Windscribe.

I use Nord VPN (paid if it makes any difference) and just set the country for Portugal or any other on the same time as us (BST/ GMT) as I had a problem once with it blocking me purely on my laptop time.
Said it thought I was in the U.K (Ok. It was right :lol: ) and therefore barred from watching under FA regs.

Never had a problem since

As Epaul said IPTV is the way to go.
Of course it is a gamble as it can be pulled at any time but watched it for last four years and saved a fortune on Sky / Virgin / BT / Swans subscriptions.
The price of a couple of away tickets gives you everything you would need

Ah, maybe it was that. Their customer support was atrocious, but I didn't think of that.

Of course it should be pointed out it is illegal, unlike the official option which is merely a grey area, and I would certainly not condone any such unofficial means. I certainly wouldn't recommend any of the iptv boxes or the Linux enigma2 satellite boxes which work very well for such things...

As I mentioned earlier, I use Nord and Chrome browser. I've watched DM and non DM games "in" Portugal, Holland, Belgium, Cyprus and Albania and never had a problem.
 
If you are using any of the free vpn then be very careful as they hijack your bandwidth etc. Leaves your security very vulnerable and causes a very poor user experience.

Weird. Was that recently? I gave up on NordVPN around 3 years ago and tried pretty much every browser and device I had. The one thing I didn't try was the clock setting, which makes sense. Maybe it's been sorted since then, although given the horrors I had with their customer service I'll stay elsewhere.

Yes only last season. I've never had to reset the clock either. I assume it's because your pc is typically set to show the time automatically wherever you are determined by your IP address. So for example my relatives in Australia watch live and their system time will be GMT +9 hours
