TVPAD4 FIX for canada

edited January 2016 in TVPad / BlueTV
The following is a fix for TVPAD 4 provided by my Toronto vendor in Dec. 2015 and it works fine for me. I am in London, Ontario, Canada and used the these procedures to get my TVPAD 4 to work again. However, I cannot get my TVPAD 3 to work. Please note that the DNS may be different for different countries, and/or suppliers. You should contact the vendor to get the proper DNS.

    What is your firmware version right now ?
  • tvbolontvbolon Junior Member
    His must be 5.060 now ...becuz if you read carefully at step 7 and 8 he needa update his FW .

    So I assume this method only work if you live outside US

    Thanks, for giving out the info

  • I'm using 2nd router VPN connected to a server outside of U.S with 49x DNS. In theory this method should fool TVpad that I'm outside U.S. One thing I notice is his step 8 puts the connection to 'Auto' instead of 'Manual' DNS. Not sure this is a permanent DNS fix for our device..

    you should edit your title " TVPAD4 FIX"

    to

    "TVPAD4 FIX for Canada User"
  • tvbolon is correct, it is 5.060
  • @tomato123 : Thanks for changing it.
  • gunnerwrxgunnerwrx Junior Member
    Can you check if 熱播影吧 works with this method and upgraded to 5.06? Thanks.

    I am using a TVPAD4 in Malaysia. I have been using DNS 49.213.10.163 until just now at 10.30 pm. What DNS should I use now? Is there a vendor that can fix this for me in Malaysia?
  • padmanpadman Moderator
    @jennc What isn't working ?

  • @jennc, you don't need any special DNS to use TVP4 outside of US. Perhaps you haven't upgraded the apps to the latest versions or the firmware to 5.06. However, some people still against upgrading to 5.06, so please upgrade at your own risk.
  • Thank you, works great. My wife is going to kill me, you are a live saver.
