    Inquire to your ISP regarding blocking access to certain IP's.
    Ask them if this is disclosed, and/or why not.
    Then change to a good Provider.
    *Use an ISP that does not own or sell TV content!

    @roadrunneric , The primary difference between a VPN and a proxy is that a proxy doesn't encrypt your traffic, it just hides it. A VPN actually encrypts your IP address and your internet usage.

    Geez you all make it hard. My head hurts. NordVPN is pretty good. I was constantly freezing and would not connect all day today. It appears Comcrap network is the root cause per DragonKiller. I installed the Nord APK file for android on the T3 dreamlink. It was easy as pie, just going on chrome web browser on the box and searching and installing the APK file from the website. I suggest turning on IPV6 from the android settings, and in the VPN app on the box, enable autoconnect to USA/UK servers along with CyberSec (Don't know why it gets turned off after you leave the menu, but its working is all it counts).

    A similar issue happened with Comcrap 10 years ago with SBHackers modified the modems and copying the modems and spoofing fake MAC's to get free internet. Spent many years doing "research" Comcrap caught on and began doing Node filtering of the MAC's and disabling the fake modems. So these Portals are either being filtered on the Node side (couple city blocks around your neighborhood and they are trying to narrow you down) or they are banning your IP from using these portals when it goes through their main network (not node). This might be accurate or completely off. I have only some limited knowledge of the comcrap internal networks.

    Your internet traffic is not what them guys in the IceCream suits would use to extort you with.
    They use the old and faithful procedure, which is .. 'Follow the Money'
    "The illusion of freedom will continue for as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will take down the scenery, move the tables and chairs out of the way, then they will pull back the curtains and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater."
    - Frank Zappa

    not sure if i would agree with that, in this case. someone in my circle received a letter from dave saying that dave was taking them to court for cash. if they follow the money they followed it the wrong direction.

    @roadrunneric , i never said it would keep you SAFE , safer yes , that & using bitcoin for future transactions ..

    crazed is 100% , it all really boils down to " if " a paper trail exists when you purchased . that's why everyone is pushing for bitcoin , it's safer than a reseller or using your credit card .

    the use of the VPN is to bypass comcast , and if/when others join in also . if you do go with a VPN , research one that doesn't log or say they don't hold logs . that's what i would research
