How to Set up Roku 3 with UnblockUS for Best Experience with BBC UK TV

Hi all,

I'm setting up as for above & wondered if there were any OzB'ers who've alreaady successfully done this who could provide a walkthrough/gotcha's list?

Going over a whole lot of info has me a tad confused…The router is TP-Link. It's currently only connected to UnblockUS & I have a Roku 3 in-transit.

Hope to hear back from anyone who has direct knowledge on how to get it all up & running,

Cheers!

  • I did have a Roku 3 and I use UnblockUS. I'm pretty sure I just changed the DNS settings in my router to the settings provided by UnblockUS and set up the Roku according to the instructions that came with it. I recall creating a US address during the Roku set up process. Just choose a random hotel or apartment complex.

  • Ta.

    I'm new to all of this. I'm fine with the DNS change, but when I checked the Roku 3 site, it had this very long & elaborate (it seemed) set up info for the UK.

    So, do you have to choose an address for each region you'll be watching on Roku? Or, only the one-time set-up? I'm thinking each different region, somehow…

    Sorry if that sounds dumb, but I'm dumb about this & I don't want to screw it up.

    Cheers

  • Can't helpn with your issue…..
    But I'd like to be able to watch BBC tv channels.
    I mainly just stream netflix through laptop and phone to chromecast on tv and use getflix for US/UK Netflix.

    But would like to know if it's possible to get UK TV Channels.??
