EDIT: I just went through the whole canada list of channels and up to CTV Montreal all is good. Then rest of CTV channels are hit and miss, but after that, all the way to the end, I only found 1 channel that works (FRCAN: Super Ecran 1) :) Just in case that give a hint.
i just found some issues
let me take a look
H2, OLN, FXX, CTV LIFE would be 4 examples that are not working for me if I'm not using a VPN, or set to Canada. However if I switch to CP24 or BRAVO, these two work fine. It must be something to do with just specific servers possibly being blocked by ISPs I guess.. Thanks for checking
Exactly, same symptoms hereQuote:

whats interesting is that i have a server with the same channels i believe the same supplier
not having the problems. the server is not related to wicked that im aware of.
vpn is going to be a requirement soon for any know iptv carrying sports in Canada
Canadian Court Orders ISPs to Block IPTV During NHL Games
once they know the iptv service it will start on them too

Actual Coaster is right, this is not the thread to continue the VPN discussion on. Let's leave this thread for wicked specific.
I moved my post here: https://www.satfix.to/showthread.php...10#post1367210

With VPN, no issues, all work fine.
Even ran some tests with various VPN services (Windscribe, KeepSolid, and ProtonVPN free) and all worked flawlessly.
However with no VPN, there were a lot less channels affected tonight. I am "assuming" there was some re-balancing done on the proxy back end to minimize the impact from the sports channel blackouts, but that is just an assumption, since not as many channels were affected tonight, compared to last night.
Either way, VPN is now permanently enabled on my media boxes. Guess it is the new reality.
Cheers
yes some load balincing changes done to try keep more up waiting on a few new servers to put channels that air the sports on on themself to keep rest up
but is hard as some reg channels also air sports
best to use vpn for now we looking for a work around too
i talked to a few other iptv providers today also facing same issue
I just put a condom on my ethernet cable :grr:
Just tried sports and canadian channels on phone all up without vpn.Quote:
