Pete.


well actually thats notnecessarily true, depending. The difference between a VPN (which sets up an encrypted tunnel to another server and then proxies that server to fetch data using its IP, and send it back you down the encrypteed tunnel, making the traffic unreadable to you ISP) and merely redirecting you own IP by using a DNS server other than that provided by your ISP. In the latter case there is no encrypted tunnel and your ISP can still intercept and log your traffic.

The difference is do you want your ISp to read your traffic?.The location ID is in either case is deduced from the IP allocted by the nearest DNS server. An unencrypted connection obviously runs faster because is not having to encrypt the traffic and its one layer less of software.



There’s so many things wrong with what you’ve just said that I’m not even going to waste time on trying to them.

The biggest issue with VPNs is that you’ve no idea where your data is going. Many free VPNs store and log your data and sell it to the highest bidders. Any plain text usernames and passwords can be used to crack the SSL encryption on your other data. Not an issue if the only data going through there is IPTV data, but certainly an issue if you’re putting betting, banking, online shopping info through the VPN.

As a former IT professional, I’d NEVER use a VPN. Smart DNS Proxy work very well and has none of the drawbacks of VPN.
There’s a free two week trial that doesn’t require any credit card details, so you can try it and check that it works for your specific needs.

I totally agree Pete

"Betting App advice needed"


Here's mine, join gamblers anonymous, gambling is a mugs game if ever there was one.

Wasn't the CEO of one of online outfits in the news last week with a reported salary of £245 MILLION!!!

That's £671,000 PER DAY not counting undoubted perks and a pension and whose pockets does that come out of?

You have to register your Device in the country where you want to use the app. You can only change once. A year on Android. Then use a VPN to put you in the country. If this works out you can download the app .. But bet365 UK app doesn't work on a VPN anyway. Bet365 es is the only international sports app that works and only when you turn off your VPN.
