UK Proxy IP: Essential for accessing BBC/iPlayer

Why do I have to use a UK proxy IP to watch BBC/iPlayer?

Recently, many of my friends have complained to me that they can't watch the BBC's exclusive episodes even though they have a membership, and when they click on the iPlayer, they are always prompted with the message "Content available in the UK only". The problem is, to put it bluntlyThe website recognizes your web positionIt has nothing to do with which country's cell phone number is used to register.

For example, if you sign up for a BBC account with a Chinese cell phone number, but when you log in from Beijing, the website will detect that your IP address belongs to China. At this point, even if the account is valid, you will be blocked out. If you want to watch the program normally, you have to let the website think that you are using aUK Local NetworksThe

Second, the three major minefields of choosing a UK proxy IP

There are so many proxy service providers in the market, but you have to pay attention to these pitfalls if you want to watch BBC/iPlayer stably:

Previously, a user bought the service of a certain family for cheap, and ended up watching "Bloodbath Gangster" buffering 8 times per episode, so angry that they directly uninstalled the app. so.Residential IP+Long time duration+Dedicated bandwidthThat's the way to go.

Third, ipipgo real test BBC watching program

Our team did an experiment with ipipgo's UK residential IP:

1. Connecting to the London Node at 9 a.m. for a 4K version of Earth Pulse
2. Switch Manchester node at noon to watch live news
3. Catching up on Doctor Who in the evening on the Birmingham IP

Three days down.0 jams, the IPs have survived for more than 72 hours. The key is that their IP pool willTimed refresh of residential address, unlike some service providers who don't change their IP segments for six months.

Fourth, the hands-on setup tutorial (Android as an example)

Don't be intimidated by the technical jargon, it's actually super easy to operate:

1. Open the ipipgo client and select "UK Zone".
2. Tap "Speed Test" to find nodes with delay <100ms.
3. Remember to check the box"Residential network"tab (of a window) (computing)
4. Return to BBC APP to clear the cache and log in again.

Here's a tip: if you encounter a region validation, first open it in your browserwhatismyipaddress.comConfirm the IP belongs to the place, and then back to the APP operation success rate is higher.

V. Notes that must be collected

- Avoid the 8-11pm rush hour (British catch-up time)
- IP blacklists are updated in the last week of every month, rememberManual node switching
- If you get a playback error, don't refresh it again and again. Wait 5 minutes and try again.
- Gmail email + UK zip code recommended for account registration (e.g. SW1A 1AA)
