Hi, I hope i have posted this in the correct place.

I want to listen UK sports via BBC 5live. They block non-UK users. I do not understand what proxy works with BBC & what does not & why.

I have on a few occations used the UK proxy list on this site to do it. But other times it does not work.
It works with transparent proxies. & http://whatismyipaddress.com/ shows me as being in the UK

When I cannot get BBC UK 5live sports I have tested the proxy i'm using and it is working ( I can get BBC 5live international version) But http://whatismyipaddress.com/ blocks me from their site.

I do not understand socks / http or any of that stuff.

Does anyone have any ideas or thoughts on this matter.

Thanks John

Hi John,

you definitely need UK proxy. Anonymous one. Does not matter HTTP or Socks. It should be in the UK address space. If you find one you will be able to listen to BBC live broadcasts.

You can listen to the BBC Radio5 and other programs if you get reliable and fast proxy in UK. Since open proxies found on many proxy web sites are not performing well I suggest you get your personal UK proxy. Send me an email for details: bbciplayer@gmx.com
