I live in the USA and want to be able to watch UK TV streamed over the web. The relevant services are geographically crippled. I can do this by using a VPN proxy server in the UK, connecting to the VPN service using a straight Windows VPN connection. However, this means I have to watch everything on my PC.
The BBC iPlayer works on the Wii in the UK. So, I'd like to connect my Wii to a wireless router (LinkSys WRT54G2) and have that be automatically connected via VPN to my proxy service in the UK. If I can do this then I'd be able to stream UK TV direct to my TV via the Wii.
I thought I could have one router act as my VPN connection, connected to a 2nd router that connects to my Cable internet access. But this bit isn't working, any thoughts?
1Unfortunately, Superuser doesn't allow any video game or console related content either. – None – 2009-09-12T22:39:49.977
You need a UK TV licence in order to watch content from BBC iPlayer (i.e. you need to reside in the UK.) Without it, you would be breaking the law. – Kez – 2009-09-13T19:17:02.560
2I have a UK TV Licence, I live ~6 months a year in UK and the other in US. I want the convenience of continuing to watch shows whilst in US. – nkimber – 2009-09-16T14:35:31.350
@Josh; It's PURELY videogame related. This has nothing to do with video games. – Phoshi – 2009-12-09T22:03:10.153
