IPTV VPN question

by Md__86

Hi all

I'm in the UK and using a Libertyshield hardware VPN on orioniptv.

When using a VPN, should the VPN location be closest to your location, or the IPTV servers?

I feel like it would make more sense to use my ISP bandwidth to get me to the country hosting the IPTV and then VPN from there, but I imagine I'm missing something...

Also, how would I even know where the IPTV services are hosted?

Thanks

I use liberty sheild and it auto connects to a UK server never touched the settings always get the max 30mbps which is perfect for iptv and streaming 4k

I rarely have to use VPN so not a real expert. But I heard that if you're connected to server in your provider country it can help with zapping times. With good connection it shouldn't really matter which one yiu use when it comes to buffering.
