Ok after some test on the tvpad 4 on firmware 5.06 with the TVPAD restricted error I find a painful work around. I tested this with the VPN and DNS. WIFI is a little bit more painful then wired, so I will give you the method on the wired first. This is only to people with VPN and the DNS.

Once you have the VPN and the DNS all setup.

Wired
1. unplug Ethernet wire from TVPAD
2. cold reboot TVPAD to clear the restricted error
3. go into TVPAD store and stay in there
4. plug in Ethernet wire back into TVPAD
5. run apps inside TVPAD store and you wont have the error saying it's restricted

WIFI
1. cold reboot TVPAD
2. go into TVPAD store before the restricted error pop up
4. stay inside TVPAD app store
3. run apps inside TVPAD store and you wont have the error saying it's restricted

    Hi XChemical, what brand and model of router are you using PureVPN with?
    I have Linksys and Belkin router that I can flash DD-WRT but couldn't get PureVPN to work on them.
    I was able to use PureVPN on my iPad and MacBook Air.

    Any help is appreciate.

    Thanks

    What server are you trying to connect to if I know what server I can give you the server ip and you can connect to that server.

    I tried the Hong Kong server and other too. I think the problem might be the router that I use.
    That's why I was asking for the brand and model number of the router that you used to make this work.

    Your help is appreciate.

    Thanks.

    You try the vpn hong kong server or do you mean you try the hong kong apps? VPN some of the apps need the DNS too, also try to update the apps that will help point it to the right server the apps is trying to connect to.

    It seems to me restricted error is particular for China user or changing DNS. When I VPN to china (even without changing the DNS), it will shows restricted error.
  • I use the box in Australia and still gets this error message. Anyone who can help with that will be much appreciated !
