BBC detect VPN and refuses to run iPlayer
I run Hideaway and connect to the London, UK server, and then try to access BBC iPlayer. I get an error says iPlayer will not run if a VPN is detected. Is there a way to fix this so I can watch shows using iPlayer? Obviously, BBC knows about Hideaway and/or the IP it's using.

Nevermind, I found a dedicated option for the iPlayer in Hideaway. Works now.

Hi! You can try a few things to get BBC iPlayer to work with Hideaway. First, try connecting to a different server in the UK - sometimes, the London server can be overloaded and cause issues. If that doesn't work, you can try contacting Hideaway's support team, and they may be able to help you troubleshoot the issue. Finally, you can try using a different VPN service altogether - there are many great options out there, like thunder vpn for pc, and it's always worth trying a few different ones to see which one works best for you.
