I assume iPlayer use Geolocation software to decide where your ip is located. You need to be able to connect to a network that provides uk ip addresses - not an easy thing to do.Never let your sucesses go to your head and never let your failures go to your heart.:beer:0

If you've still got property & broadband back in the UK (or a friend/family with spare bandwidth) you could use a slingbox to access your digibox over the 'tinternet

i Have read something about using proxy servers and some people getting it to work.
I'll have a look around and see what i can find.
Just a warning it must be against the BBC's T&C's otherwise it would be set up already0
