Accessing BBC iPlayer from outside the UK
Discussion
It seems BBC iPlayer is now actively blocking connections from VPNs.
This article ( BBC iPlayer not working with your VPN? Here's how to fix that) explains the problem well. Essentially, VPNs are funnelling all their customers through the same servers and IP addresses. Which makes it easy to blacklist.
The answer is to get a VPN that lets you buy a dedicated IP too. PureVPN is the best, apparently.
