Kinda seems more like "how to watch the Olympics for $20" (or more - I don't know quite how many games are available, and at what quality, from the BBC, but I feel like you could potentially use over 200 gigs of transfer in watching them).

Many actual VPNs are somewhat cheaper, and just as simple to set up.

Of course, paying money to a third-party to watch BBC feels as insane and dumb as ever. You'd think that they'd start looking into overseas subscriptions at this point. Nevermind the IOC - why can't they offer anything on Pay-Per-View? Both are great alternative sources of income they're passing up, instead essentially encouraging piracy and sending money to third parties instead!




This is a complicated affair. It's the rights holders to the content that the BBC broadcasts who are probably the biggest hurdle in expanding the BBC Worldwide's reach. Global iPlayer is a start, but it will take time.


Just use these two DNS servers, they're free and takes no effort to get working:

Primary DNS: 64.250.122.104

Secondary DNS: 199.167.30.144


you probably should mention the guys providing the service. These DNS Servers are from http://tunlr.net/ and you shouldn't use these Server permanantly because they do DNS Traffic shaping


Article doesn't mention anything about free.
