I've got Sky sport on my iPhone and ipad and I'm off on holidays next week.
Will it still work in other countries, anyone know ?
Thanks in advance |  |

Pretty sure it's region locked, I was in Prague last September and it didn't work there. |  | | |

I'm sure there are ways to get around it being blocked, using certain apps like Hola? I'm not 100% sure. Someone more technical like Blaze might be your answer! |  |

Live media player is a great app for LIVE games and sports channels. |  |

I watched Sky Go in Spain a week or two ago running it both through my VPN (HMA) and - just as an experiment - through Hola. Both worked fine. I have previously tried getting access in Thailand, but found far too much lag. The key is fast internet connection. I measured the speed in the Spanish hotel at about 20mbps, and that was great, but slow internet won't give watchable results. Having said all this I get lag sometimes using Virgin Media here in Swansea. [Post edited 30 Aug 2015 11:56]

Stop using HOLA . It is free for a reason , but saying that the same thing happens with the paid for version
When you install Hola, you become a VPN endpoint, and other users of the Hola network may exit through your internet connection and take on you IP address , opening you up to all kinds of activity linked directly to your IP .
Use unotelly DNS or a proper VPN that takes your privacy seriously as the complications that could arise from using that dodgy shady HOLA are not worth thinking about .
And to OP - Unotelly will allow you to do what you like with no problems |  | | |

It's to do with your IP address so you need a VPN to access the internet. Do some research on VPN though E.G you get limited bandwidth which affects the quality of the connection, you sometimes have to pay extra to increase the bandwidth.
Check out

Although sky are a premium sports broadcaster they won't allow you to access their service if your outside the UK.
your IP address will be registered in the UK, if your on your PC or laptop google what is my IP address and it will tell you your IP and server location. | | | |
