thanks very much for answering my post. i now can watch tv streams using paid dns server and private vpn on my tvpad3. i am currently hosting my web server too at my location where i can watch tvpad whenever i got a break and i don't know which way (paid dns server or private vpn) is best for me? if your answer is paid dns, i will have to move my existing dns service (serviced by other company) to the piad dns server serviced by directhosting. if your answer is the private vpn, i am assuming that my web hosting will have to be brought down temporarily whenever i am watching tv streams and there is no way for me to get around dual purposes configuration (web hosting and watch tvpad with vpn) over ONE Internet cable.
I signed up for PrivateInternetAccess VPN service. I setup using OpenVPN method on my DD-WRT router. All my devices laptop and tablets are showing up with Hong Kong IP. However, I still get the "Server: (Error Code: -1) on network check. Also I still can't watch any live TV. I am using TVpad 3.
Please, let me know if I did something wrong or suggestions. Thanks!!!
well i did all these (used ddwrt and made it router1 and took my router1 to become router2) and i am very happy now.
the pain is i have to re-program router1 (now is runnin on ddwrt) and switch router1 (originally, now becomes router2) which didn't work at position router2 for vpn. all other computers/cameras/remote controlled switches were also affected by this change.
i now can host my web server and at the same time i can watch tv shows.
i saved some $. but the speed on watching tv shows isn't that great. it is slower than the paid dns configuration.
