I have no problem downloading and using the BBC iplayer, ITVHub or All4 but when I try to use UKTV which installs ok I get the message, you do not appear to be in the UK and can only watch this if you are in the UK ?
Why would UKTV not recognise Plusnet as being in this country or is this problem down to something else ?
Not important if this can't be solved, I am more curious than anything.
Using Android tab.

It's down to UKTV or the supplier of their software which maps the IP address to country not keeping their database up to date.

I remember when i was in Canada and i desperately wanted to access some channels from UK but they were blocked because of the Geo-restrictions. My friend suggested me to use PureVPN there and it works for me. You can access these channels by changing your IP via PureVPN
