Thank you.

"Do you block pirated streams / content" is now a standard question to ask an ISP prior to considering using its services.

Vpn

Most of the mainstream (sic) ISPs respect court-imposed content provider restrictions, example:
btplc.com/BTT…htm
en.wikipedia.org/wik…dom
Can usually flout the court-ordered blocks by using VPN.

@kevmfc91 yep.. thats because as I said.. your providers Dns has been leaked and therefore he has been blocked

It is on a fire stick. I forgot to say that to start with

this will be due to an ISP block on ur provider because someone has leaked his URL

@rupo no you do not need to buy it preloaded mate

Go into your account and disable BT smart hub setup, it's kind of like a child blocker thing

Tried that but it never worked. I am using a vpn and it’s working at the moment.

Also use XVPN on Firestick to overcome blocks with IPTV

Could be their servers are overloaded and stretched come premier league ko times. Normally price per year is an indicater of this could happen, ie £20-50 per year

Subs for 3-6 months paying a bit more generally offer better quality protection in my opinion but test first.

Fire sticks are great but they are jack of all trades, 4k run much smoother and glitch free. Possibly try a specific device to load iptv such as mag box and good server and bang no probs. Only as good as the server your getting channels from. (edited)

server being overloaded would nt result in black screens pal

also mag boxes are rubbish- as they struggle to play all vod content due to codec issues and if a vpn is needed u cant directly add one to mag box and would need a vpn router (edited)

Been in the game years

If I watch via mobile network (tethering) have no issues but Im starting to run low on my data allowance. Ive checked the smart setup on BT and is switched off. Looks like I have to get VPN router as I want to view it on my LG TV. the question is if there is any other solution before I start investing in VPN or unlimited data mobile contract. Thanks in advanceRead lessRead more

Probably no major benefit to looking at other solutions when a one-off £12.50 provides lifetime sub to credible VPN service providing 15 simultaneous logins where any or all of those logins can be a router feeding multiple downstream devices. Suggested option also permits p2p/torrenting if that is also in your requirement tick list.

Thank you.

defo use a vpn
or find a proper provider

How do you get IPTV on a firestick? Do we need to buy pre-loaded from eBay?
