The GCN+ app works fine on the Mi Box S, except for live Tour de France coverage. I queried it with them last year and they said they don’t support the Mi Box S. Below was yesterday’s stage of the UAE Tour. The App doesnt support it is ***.... Just got a free VPN for the box and connected to Germany, Tour is fully loaded now. Woop Woop!

Below was yesterday’s stage of the UAE Tour. Prefer not to run VPN on router - as you say then EVERYTHING traverses the VPN (unless router supports Split Tunnelling - and not a lot do). Although it works fine for GCN+ - reality is that (on my 200Mbps fibre line) it reduces the overall speed by at least 40% - in most cases much more. As such I prefer to run NordVPN on a per device basis - only disadvantage is that NordVPN is not supported on all devices (i.e. Apple TV).

Also just want to add +1 for loving GCN+ Best subscription service I'm currently paying for hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try when the Tour is live, like I experienced last year. Highlights work fine, as do other races just not the Tour. There's the ticket below. If they've updated it since, then bonus. If not, I'm sharing what happened last year July. Matu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two routers, one is the ISP's provided one, which doesn't allow any configuration. This is the reason why I have a second one. Also, I can't change settings on my work laptop, but can select wifi networks. Another reason why I went with the router setup. It's what works for my setup.

Cant seem to find a subscription fee without creating an account. https://nordvpn.com/pricing/birthday-site/ $84 for a 2 year subscription = R630/year, or R52.50/month (2 coffees). GCN+ is R719.99 for the year (when I renewed). Not sure if it's exchange rate based. Edited February 23, 2022 by Frosty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
