OK.... No reply expected to this as you're busy, but this is the first set of results, using browser access rather then LMS (which I'll do this afternoon). Using Firefox, from same laptop where LMS is installed, and with Flash DISABLED in F'fox options. And I'm sitting in Paris. A) Direct access, no VPN. Radio 4 FM stream works fine; R3 Stream works fine. R5 Live Sports Extra (Live cricket commentary: https://www.bbc.com/sport/live/cricket/43878000) - Silence and an error message. I'm assuming there's a region restriction. B) NordVPN connection to UK server R4 FM stream works fine; R3 Stream works fine R5 Live Sports Extra (Live cricket commentary: https://www.bbc.com/sport/live/cricket/43878000) - works fine [So, it thinks I'm in the UK]. I also tried assorted websites on the BBC that have strict region restrictions [eg, the TV iPlayer] and they all worked fine under the VPN. [There's no net access to R4 LW, which is also carrying the cricket, so I can't check that out here, as I will be able to do via LMS.] So, the VPN is not causing me a problem via laptop net access, so far as I can tell. [An aside for cricket fans: this year, for non-UK residents, the BBC have also provided access to the TMS Live Commentary via a YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VfC8Y6nsVY which is very nice of them! For me, I can access that with no VPN, but *with* the VPN, I'm blocked, as it's strictly non-UK.....] AGB Logitech Media Server Version: 7.7.6 - 1521467459 @ Thu Mar 29 16:46:01 WEDT 2018 Operating system: Windows 10 Music Library: external SD, exFAT (FLAC music; mp3 voice) USA: LinkSys WRT54GS Router, WPA2 1 x Touch, LAN (Firmware:7.7.3-r16676) Controller: 7.7.2-r9663 France: Sagem Livebox 2FR, or Freebox 1 x SB3, wireless.
