    Tvp4 working fw 5.054 and fw5.06 using purevpn. See VPN thread.

    I'm going to use a vpn'd router because of the risk of messing up the network settings if the box reboots without first disabling the software vpn

    @jaqlee@yahoo.com:
    Google is your friend. A quick search of 'backup android' will return quite a few solutions, such as the following:

    With limited technical knowledge, I tried to change the DNS to 146.0.227.36 on my TVPad 3 in Toronto. It didn't work, so I went to the store. I paid $30 and was told that they would do a system upgrade as my warranty expired after 1 year. I am not able to tell if they really did an upgrade or not. Is there a way to check? Yet, I was able to tell that the DNS was changed to 107.151.128.222. I have not had a chance to check all the functions, but the connection to the Hong Kong dramas works.

    @aquipower:
    Thanks for heads-up.
    Confirmed in NYC, this DNS address works on both
    - TVPad4 firmware 5.054 (no upgrade), using standard TVB apps
    - TVPad1 M121S firmware 3.26

    Good luck to all.
