Type of VPN for IP

by boggyonetwo

Hello!. I've currently signed up with a great provider of IPTV and I'm looking for a bit of help. Since Saturday, I've been getting EPL blocked during game times, so I've been looking for a VPN, but, I need to know the answer to one or two questions about how I approach picking one up.

I know about the "eyes" of a VPN, and what countries are in the 14, but, I'm likely only going to be using this VPN during game times. I'm a British virgin media customer, and as many will know, they're highly interested in blocking many connections to IPTV. Would going for a VPN based in one of the eyes, maybe not 5, but 9 or 14, be such a bad thing if I just want to use it to get around the blocks?.

​

If so, I imagine going for one with ZERO logs would be a good thing to do?. I used to use Nord, but it's far too expensive for the deals, so I've been checking the others such as IPVanish & PureVPN. Apologies if this is in the wrong place too!.

​

Thanks.

Nord is 99 USD for 3 years. 2.98 USD per month is too much? That's 9c a day Mr Huevos. If it is too much I understand. Not judging. I would go with a modded version of Open VPN. If you do go the unwise route of using a typical free VPN, make sure that you read the terms and conditions before you pull the trigger.

I read this on here some while ago :- Easy solution for UK users, avoid the big 6 isp's. Go with a quality ISP like Idnet or AAISP. Both refuse to censor anything, both are committed to not throttling anything. I am about to move house and will resist the temptation to get BT or Sky and pay less, because I don't want the censorship they will be doing. With idnet or AAISP youll never need to use a vpn with iptv (and they are likely to be faster as well).

NordVPN , PIA. I used PIA for years and they are very gôod with servers all over the world. Use the GCM encryption instead of CBC. It's a newer encryption and supposed to be faster. The default is CBC.
