Are The EPL Blocks Still An Issue for providers ?

by fooali

It seems as though most providers have found a way to circumvent the blocks, apart from the first few weeks of the season i can't remember using a VPN. reading most forums and this reddit sub it seems like this is no longer a huge barrier for IPTV and that lessons have been learnt. Blocks are a blessing in disguise for me cos it shows who to stay away from and its no surprise that its mostly the newcomers who are struggling.

​

I'm fairly sure the ISP's can put in place much more sophisticated blocks but you need to remember that BT Virgin EE etc are forced to do this by the courts and will probably do the bare minimum to comply.

my provider is [beams-tv]( https://beams-tv.com ) i know a few will be asking

BT, Virgin and Sky doing the bare minimum? They all lose money from IPTV so I bet they're doing everything they can

i dont see why go without a vpn when they are so cheap and offer an extra layer of security.

Our service is unaffected :) but doesn't mean you can rest on your laurels there going to put more measures in place at some time. It's a great world we live in when there's always a way :)

Decent providers should have a backup option or ways to avoid the blocks, if your current provider is working without a VPN then keep it on the low down, the more people on the service the more chance it will get blocked and you will be looking for another provider in no time.

Area51 needs a VPN when EPL is on (and who knows other sports/leagues). Which I don't mind but is a pain with Zgemma Enigma2

Make a smart choice right now and live happily ever after: GET A ROUTER WITH VPN FEATURES and find a good VPN provider that confirms enabling P2P and IPTV. That done and you`ll never care about what ISPs do or about to do. Turn the device on and enjoy the event.

​

You also need to make sure that your IPTV provider of choice not blocking VPN/Proxies.

There was a mass blackout last season. All providers were hit, but many were able to bypass it.

It will happen again, but many providers will be fine if they are correctly setup in the first place.
