    Seems as if NRK have implemented VPN blocking. Other Geoblocking sites like HBO Norway still works. Hopefully Freedome can establish new IP addresses that are not blocked.

    I have the same problem. The only reason I am subscribing to Freedome is to have access to Norwegian TV channels (NRK). I still had the connection on Wednesday 20 Feb.  Any advice or solutions to this? Freedome, please do something!

    I have for this just for watching nrk.no live tv due to that I don't live in norway. It has worked perfectly until now.

     

    Before did it register as: Oslo Portlane AB

     

    Now it registers as: Stockholm GleSYS Internet Services AB

     

    Oslo capital of Norway works great, Stockholm capital of Sweden won't work as Norway.......no need to be a professor to understand that.

    Same problem. I’m now using a free Windscribe vpn. The only reason for subscribing to Freedome is to watch NRK.no.

    The free Windscribe vpn works! Thanks! This should mean that F-Secure must be able to make the connection work again. I hope they are reading this.

    i also have the same problem 

    i just checked my  download speed 

    with BREDBANDSKOLLEN and this is the result

    25 februari 2019, 11:02 – StockholmGleSYS Internet Services AB
     55.82 Mbit/s  5.85 Mbit/s  35.19 ms
    this first one is vpn set in sweden 
    25 februari 2019, 11:01 – StockholmGleSYS Internet Services AB
     56.14 Mbit/s  6.23 Mbit/s  59.47 ms
    and this one is set in norway 
    so it's obviousy something wrong with freedome now after changing from Portlane to GleSYS. 
    i bought freedome just for watching NRK.no, on my computer running Win 10 really hope
    F-Secure  fix this problem very soon

    Hi. I was in a similar situation as you,nrk.no doesnt work and I though I wanted more security while connecting to public Wi-Fi's. I did my research and found VeePN to tick all the boxes I need. I am using it for several months now and even though it was a bit of trouble setting it up on Linux, because they don't have a native app, the speeds are surprisingly good.
