I connect to my mum's laptop sometimes using TeamViewer but never thought to use it like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Nord they display a server map throughout the World. Pick one and you are routed there within fractions of seconds. If something doesn't seem right with the one you pick, pick a different one. If a mate tells you about a certain vid they are watching on YT, but you can't get it.... switch to a server in the country friend is accessing and boom, there it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as alluded to above, if someone is serious about blocking VPNs they will do it. The UK lottery seems to be quite adept at it so can you set Nord to the UK and see if you can access this site? https://www.national-lottery.co.uk/ There are mixed reports on line.

Without using my VPN it told me to bugger off because I wasn't in the UK or Isle of Mann. With the VPN pointing at a UK server I got as far as the login screen. Not having a login I could go no further but I did get further than I had before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just logged into my UK lottery account using Nord on my laptop. It also gets around Sky too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
