This setup should just use the proxy for the connection then download via my normal route.įor information I use get_iplayer and the http content is optimum for my broadband connection, for information in case you have any user wishing to do the same.ġ. Just to let you know all is working for me, I am only interested in downloading from bbc iplayer which I then stream over the network to the TV. There can be a few reasons one of which is if you are using WiFi at a school or public place there is a chance that proxys are 217.174.240.25:808 … Well firstly thanks, but I will accept most forms, basically whatever is easier for you including trade offs and chocolates lolħ I have set up the proxy and it still is not working Yes, but best to ask for my VPN server for this as it is a cleaner set up Ħ I would like to help out with the costs, what way can I contribute?

NB getting asked for the username and password is a good sign

Also the first time you use the proxy, it will ask for the username and password a few times first time around until it remembers. If it is not as above then it could be that all your connections are going through the proxy, so ensure the “Bypass proxy server for local addresses” is ticked. There can be a number of reasons for this but before you contact me, the likelihood is that you are cutting and pasting the username and password and it is better to type them in or you have put in the wrong ip address.Ĥ Why do I keep getting asked for the username and password?

Although the server is not busy it is a good habit to get into particularly at peak times such as the F1 or other sporting event.ģ Why does the proxy not except my username and password?

I think this can be down to a personal preference, but it is always worth having more than one, because there are always updates and changes to the iplayer or browser.įrom a personal point of view I use FireFox most of the time, mainly for their proxy switcher, which makes life so much easier, it also doesn’t effect your operating system and will often work if you are struggling with Internet Explorer.Īs a backup I use Google Chrome, which uses the Internet Explorer settings and Opera is another good alternative
