Hi,

unfortunately I didn’t find a solution here. On my iPad I’ve installed Sky go. It worked well with my previous VPN provider NordVPN. Since I’ve installed F-Secure Freedom I don’t get any connection. Could you please tell me why? Is there any solution available or should I switch back to NordVPN?

 

Many thanks.

Hi @RB6,

 

We have limited possibilities to prevent external 3rd party from blocking us. There are multiple ways how such blocking can be done. For instance, should someone want to block connections coming from our network addresses in their firewall, they are completely free to do so, and they do not need our permission to do that.

 

There is a post in the Sky forum about Sky and Freedome here.
