NordVPN (start eval service 2020-11-14 Sat)
- AndroidTV (Sony TV, 1700)
- Getting NordVPN App
- Problem – Lost sound, NO sound when tried SVT Play app after installing NordVPN
- Tried uninstall app, reinstall, reconfig app but no change.
- Then realize, NO apps (AndroidTV installed, incl. e.g. Netflix no longer has sound.
- BUT, fix was actually – lucky/good for a change… – Power OFF and ON of TV fixed it.
- Using
- Open NordVPN app
- Start service, ###
- Start
- iOS (12 Pro)
- Getting NordVPN App
- macOS 10.13 (IM2713, 1700) – problem getting to connect (showing trying to establish service for maybe ten seconds, then very briefly some other message, trying message again, repeats but never establish services)
- One solution that works 2020-11-15 Sun is changing ‘VPN Protocol from ‘Use recommended protocol’ to ‘OpenVPN (UDP)’ (not yet tried other choices)
- ‘Use recommended protocol’ – did NOT work
- ‘IKEv2’ – did NOT work
- ‘OpenVPN (UDP)’ – WORKS! (tested to Sweden)
- ‘OpenVPN (TCP)’ – not tested yet
- ‘NordLynx’ – WORKS! (And from dialog on cell, ‘up to 2x faster compared to other protocols, as shown in our tests’ (tested to Sweden)
- Able to see SVTPlay material that is unavailable (‘Programmet kan bara ses i Sverige’)
- Start VPN connection to Sweden
- Reload web browser window (sufficient action when test 2020-11-15, no need to restart any apps or anything else – nice!)
- (Web browser window start allow player material. Ah, yes – using Chrome web browser during tests, no other/special app.)
