I had line drops twice this evening that I had to power off VPN router. Did you have same issue? Apart from that it was great. Btw, line didn't drop while watching a channel and didn't interrupt streaming but when I tried to change channel and it wasn't connecting, showing failed. Powered off and was back online. I'll ask Liberty Shield tomorrow as well.

 

[shiwen55]

Yes, fixed the problem. Just to give an update on my last message;

It wasn't the IPTV server or Smart IPTV. I changed my main router's DNS back to ISP, changed the country from US to UK and with Liberty Shield agent, changed the encryption to Open VPN. All sorted and better image quality too.

Happy days

Just a comment, all Rapid subscription and VPN subscription together is not even two months full Sky package and also you'd get none UK channels as well. Worth the money and will recommend the VPN router to friends and family.

Way easy. I connected to the main router via cable, waited 10 minutes to update the firmware. Followed the link on the booklet and entered my codes (There's two codes, one for the router and one for two weeks trial) and entered my name, email address (they don't ask for your home address) and created a password. Because it's the first time, they'd reduce annual subscription from £69.99 to £49.99 for first time buyers. Waited 10 minutes, turned off VPN router and on again and I was all set. It's all preconfigured, all you need is to register, easier than you think, then later, you can manage VPN servers etc easily. I recommend.

I'd say buy from Amazon, this way you can send it back easier if you don't like it. I'm sure when you see the results, you'll change your mind

Ok thanks will look into this in the next few days. In for a penny as they say

Just to add, Lite version as they say on their website, doesn't support Open VPN encryption. I bought mine from Amazon (Lite version) and it had a sticker that it does support Open VPN. You'd be better off buying from Amazon, as it has support for Open VPN (although they say you can contact Liberty Shield to upgrade your firmware, I don't if they'd charge you for that or not)

It's the same. Just wait until you receive the router to see if there's a sticker on the booklet to say Open VPN (it's to do with encryption, not essential). You can ask me questions or you could go to LibertShieldDOTcom. Enjoy !!

All Portuguese subs are being blocked atm, in all ISPs, anyone else experiencing this and is there any way around it besides VPN?

Nota sure if that os the case, no streams from subscribed m3u service but from free grab lista its all good.

VPN encrypts and hides your ISP so they cannot block the stream. DNS on the other hand lifts geographic restrictions and does not hide your IP I doubt it'll always work, in my case, did sometimes.

Unless you trick the ISP provider and hide you're streaming, I can't think of another way.

Proxy can help to hide your activity too, it should be added to your m3u list, never tried it but I've seen that.

Changing DNS does not work, tried Cloudflare and googles. Can you explain how to add a proxy to an m3u list?

I know it's possible and I've been looking up Google to see ways of doing it. I haven't seen a simple way doing it, the replies are technical and I'm not that good. I will look into this more.
