Hi,
I have been using VPN express in Australia perfectly and am looking to setup VPN express for my family in the UK so they can watch the EPL. I have it working fine with an iPad or iPhone using the Optus app (and VPN express app) but when I try to use the Optus app through a 4th gen Apple TV I cant get it to work. Do you know if other customers have the Optus sport app working through Apple TV outside of Australia. Other Australian based apps (SBS or ABC) are working but not Optus sport (or some other Australia apps like 9now or 7plus).
Thanks
David
Hi David,
Unfortunately, this seems to be an issue that Optus has faced since the World Cup (https://yescrowd.optus.com.au/t5/TV-Entertainment/World-Cup-through-Apple-TV-is-unwatchable/td-p/439419)
We’ll be on the lookout and share updates here if we notice anything new!
Hello.
I have ExpressVPN and I was going to watch English football, but somehow I can not watch football through VPN. I’ve tried to follow VPN setup information. As this does not work, I’m going to stop VPN and close it..Thanks.
Erling.
Hi there,
Which device are you trying to watch football on? Are you unable to setup ExpressVPN or unable to connect?
Please contact Support at https://www.expressvpn.com/support/#open-chat and let’s get those issues resolved 🙂
Hi, I have an Express Vpn subscription already and it is really excellent. As a UK based football fan, I would happily pay for a domestic subscription to Sky and BT Sports but the prices are just extortionate.
I hate the idea of illegal streams so last season I paid for (month by month) access to a legitimate European supplier by using one of your servers in that country. Unfortunately, it became rather unreliable – laggy, freezing – so I am looking for a replacement. Do you have any suggestions?
I have read some of your other articles on this subject but I am not sure if a Canadian or US server would cut it – plus I can’t possibly provide cable login details.
Hi there,
Which service were you previously using? Feel free to get in touch with Support (https://www.expressvpn.com/support/#open-chat) and let’s see if we can get the issue fixed. Otherwise, services like YouTube TV could be a great way to catch the games without getting U.S. cable.
