Streaming Xbox content in Korea

Streaming Xbox content in Korea Hello, I'm trying to set up an Xbox 360 to stream online content from the UK/US, but as expected it blocks it because of the IP address being in Korea. What do people use in order to circumvent this? Is there a specific proxy server for this?

Even if you use a Cheap VPN as a gateway (via router or another computer), XBox Live still finds a way to know your location.Back to top HootsmonJoined: 22 Jan 2008Posted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 2:36 am    Post subject: Yeah, I wish there was a way around it but I have no idea. I'd love to be able to watch SKY television from the UK but it won't let me log in from here. I imagine there's no way around it what with it being a console...Back to top darkjedidaveJoined: 19 Aug 2009Location: Yonhi-Dong, SeoulPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 3:17 am    Post subject: I have a VPN router set up through StrongVPN and use it for my Roku, PS3, Xbox and iDevices. Works fine and able to stream Netflix and other US/UK apps, so I'm not sure why it doesn't work for pkang0202Back to top seoul101Joined: 13 May 2006Location: SeoulPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 7:05 am    Post subject: Thanks for the replies. I got it working - started using a VPN service, updated the DNS addresses and Netflix is now up and running.Back to top pkang0202Joined: 09 Mar 2007Posted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 4:30 pm    Post subject: darkjedidave wrote:I have a VPN router set up through StrongVPN and use it for my Roku, PS3, Xbox and iDevices.

From what I got from talking to their(Astrill) tech support, their VPN didnt' support some kind of protocol that the XBox Live uses. Looks like STrong VPN does.Back to top HootsmonJoined: 22 Jan 2008Posted: Mon Mar 19, 2012 7:12 pm    Post subject: Okay, I'm a bit of a moron when it comes to technical stuff, so could someone give me a quick walkthrough how this works? If I subscribe to STrong VPN, at 7 dollars a month, I could set up my router to think that I'm in the UK? Then I could subscribe to the UK services on Xbox Live like Sky and such? I'm already a Gold Member of Xbox Live...Back to top pkang0202Joined: 09 Mar 2007Posted: Mon Mar 19, 2012 7:57 pm    Post subject: Hootsmon wrote:Okay, I'm a bit of a moron when it comes to technical stuff, so could someone give me a quick walkthrough how this works?

Or, I think STrongVPN sells routers that are already pre-configured.Back to top HootsmonJoined: 22 Jan 2008Posted: Tue Mar 20, 2012 4:31 am    Post subject: pkang0202 wrote:Hootsmon wrote:Okay, I'm a bit of a moron when it comes to technical stuff, so could someone give me a quick walkthrough how this works?

I just threw out my old router that was already flashed with DD-WRT because one of the antennas broke and it was only sending out half a signal and bought a new IpTime router instead. Bollocks.
