Hello,

I am currently in Singapore and cannot watch programmes in SkyGo.

I am using my Win laptop/NordVPN and of cos a legal Sky subscription. I had tried with Chrome, Brave browsers to no avail.

I had cleared the cookies/cache etc. and set NordVPN to NZ server.

I can log into SkyGo but when selecting "Watch Live TV", I just get black screen and arrow going round and round.

Is there something else I need to set? Or it's just not possible?

Appreciate any comments/help.

Jon.

Skygo is geoblocked. The TOS do not permit watching it outside New Zealand.

VPN doesn’t always work especially for Netflix

It wouldn't surprise me if the VPN's public ip has been blacklisted, happens a lot on various VPN's - select a different server if theres one. Or next time just setup a tunnel back though your home broadband - thats what I do. I use a Mikrotik router - configure an incoming ipsec tunnel and connect to it from overseas.
