Some Canadian internet providers interfere with IPTV services. A VPN fixes that.
Bell, Rogers, and some smaller Canadian ISPs have been known to block or throttle EPG (Electronic Program Guide) files and IPTV traffic. This can cause channels to freeze, guide data to stop loading, or the service to stop working entirely — even though your internet connection is otherwise fine.
A VPN encrypts your internet traffic and hides it from your ISP, preventing them from interfering with your TVStreams service. It also stops your ISP from throttling your speeds based on what you're watching.
Not sure if you need a VPN? Request a free trial first — if the service works fine without one, you don't need it.
