Why you need a FREE TRIAL VPN for your iPhone 4s or your Ipad 2 - Technology - Communication

I'm now the proud owner of an iPhone 4s, it does not have an untethered jailbreak or is it factory unlocked. When I was in the United Kingdom, I had great fun downloading some of the best apps for my iPhone.

I like watching TV and listening to the radio on my iPhone, but more importantly I like watching TV abroad. It is becoming more difficult to watch your favourite BBC or ITV programmes while you are travelling abroad.

Because, things like the BBC iplayer and the ITV player check the location of your iPhone or iPAD before allowing you to watch television on these devices. So while you are in the UK, you will not have a problem using these applications and will be able to watch TV on your iPhone.

However, as I found out when I visited Cyprus. When you attempt to use these applications to watch TV abroad or in my case to watch TV in Cyprus, the applications do not allow you to connect to their servers, because you're outside of the United Kingdom.

This is where clever use of a VPN comes into play. The VPN stands for Virtual Private Network and by using a VPN you are effectively connecting to the Internet firstly by your ISP, then through the VPN. By choosing a VPN in the UK that excepts unlimited bandwidth, you can watch TV abroad with no problem. Only ever do this is through a WiFi connection otherwise your data charges while roaming will be skyhigh.

I found a website in Cyprus that offers one of the few unlimited, unrestricted VPN's you can actually connected up to your PC, your iPhone, your iPAD, your Google android device and anywhere else that allows you to enter manual VPN settings.

So are initially I signed up through SATCYPRUS for a VPN free trial. I have tried many VPN's and this is the only one that gives me glitch free viewing over a 2 MB Internet connection with CYTA. So this service will work equally well with Primetel, MTN, Logosnet and many other Cyprus Internet service providers.

I recently visited South Carolina, USA and I can even watch BBC and ITV whilst I was in America. Sat Cyprus not only gives you a UK IP address but also IP addresses in Germany, America, Italy and many other countries as part of a single package. So you pay once and get many many features that become useful depending which country you are visiting and what television you tried to watch on the Internet.

After my three day free trial, I checked with their support and they advised me to purchase the dedicated IP package so I was not sharing my connection or bandwidth with anybody else. This turns out to be the best advice I have ever received. I have been using this VPN for over two weeks and seriously hammered the connection and it is like watching TV through a digital aerial in the United Kingdom.

So when you have tried all the others and get fed up with ITV freezing and BBC iplayer desktop not downloading your series make sure you try a VPN free trial.
