IPTV

For VPN I‘ve used surfshark for the last two years, as they had a good 2 year sign up package (think like £40 total). Was ok, a bit slower than running without but unlimited devices. Was a pain as it failed with Google/Amazon prime etc. either getting a captcha or simply banned ip warning.

Renewal is up and they want 70-odd quid a year now, so have cancelled and got private internet access (PIA) was on offer at £65 for 3 years unlimited devices which seemed a bargain. I also saw they offered a fixed ip for £81 for the 3 years, I took it but didn’t realise I had to choose a specific country to base it in - sort of thought it’d apply to the country of choice for that session.

I went with a London uk address as that made sense so I could run it constantly and not be directed to foreign sites by default (but fancied a U.S. one for streaming, which may have been better if I didn’t run it always?).

I find it’s faster now with vpn than without (e.g. I have 450 Mbps speed, had 280 in my front room, now get 360), plus in theory, I could host a web server using it.

Sadly, in practice I’m wary of streaming using my dedicated ip - I’m sure it wouldn’t be a problem, but if I wasn’t paranoid I wouldn’t need a vpn!

If you can get hold of one of these you are laughing, its primary function is to stream, it wastes no time trying to convince you its a gaming device it streams stuff...in what passes for 4k and it is wired so when your providers server shows you the same clip for 5 minutes over and over again it will look fabulous bees knees.jpg
 
I've got a firestick but don't want to go the route of android again. I've had a few boxes and got fed up of them. Any apps/paid subscription that is recommended?

Eveything I ever got in the past starts off well then the usual shitty buffering, freezing, not playing etc.

Can I ask you a question. If I sign up for City TV to watch game later, does it show the score or can I find the video without knowing the score.

I'm asking because tonights game is on at 4 am here in Shitsville, and I'm not getting up at 4 fucking am :)
