can't see svt play propgrams from spain

hans_b

the reason i bought freedome was to get rig of the geographical limitations that most programs in svp play have. I was peromised that by usin freedome I could get a VPN that would relocate my ip adress from Madrid to satockholm. I have of course change the location as mantioned but when trying to watch the programs in svt play that are regionally limited I still get the medssage that they can only be watched from Sweden. Why is that? What have I missed or is the product not working in the mentioned way?

Hello Hans_b ,

 

Could you tell us from which platform you are trying to access SVT play services? 

The SVT play could get your location from location services (GPS + phone networks + wi-fi networks) on mobile device(Android or iOS).

If you are using Windows or Mac, could you try using private browsing.

Hello,

I have solved the problem, it works fine. The reason it did not work att first was that, for som reason, the Freedome functions were not "ON".
