[Tech1] Watching i>Player in Greece

[Doug Puddifoot]

If she has a reasonable internet speed, i.player can be watched via a vpn. You then appear to be in the UK. Have a look here.

The beeb makes attempts to block this, so there is the occasional problem, but a good provider should be able to keep one jump ahead. Not exactly legal, but widely used. It also believe there are some UK channels on one of the Astra satellite wide beam transponders. Not BBC however. These should not need an oversize dish. A local installer should know.

Dear All,

Does anyone know of a legal way of watching i>player in Greece?  My 
sister who lives in Athens is fed up with the "quality" of Greek 
Television, and would love to watch the BBC. If it involved paying the 
Licence Fee, then fine.

Best wishes, Mike Minchin
