www.bbc.co.uk and i player....

[joakimhansson]

I downloaded the i player from bbc....but they say i can´t watch tv program from my IP address.... i live in sweden!!! Only for UK IP´s......

I don´t know if it is any way around this, can i use a hidden IP Address and play i player? or do i need to move to uk???


If BBC iPlayer doesn't recognise your IP address at all, then you won't be able to stream or download programmes.

Occasionally it may simply be a network error, so it's worth closing your browser or router and reopening as a new IP address is allocated which may be UK-based.

You can't access from a non-UK IP address. You might be able to "proxy" via a UK IP address - but it may be they have barred the common ones to prevent this.
