I appreciate the help, and follow those instructions in the link as well but received a new error.
Well, if there is a alternative, let me know. Thanks!
Are you using Chrome Icognito? I was having issues prior to that.

...I can finally watch my Panthers games in HD in IL after 10+ years of shitty streams and such.
Thank you, PP.
Thank you, PP.
Never happen while directv has control.
directv doesn't have "control". the nfl decides everything. they get more money with the deal directv brings to the table appparently. similar to how it isn't ea's fault they have the exclusive rights for nfl games. the nfl wanted to sell them to the top bidder and they bid the highest.
anyway, it looks like the nfl might have fixed the loophole if you were using it to connect, load up video, and then disconnect.

nlfreevpn appears to be hosed. ;(
Yup. Anyone have a backup?
Figured it out. Go to http://www.flyvpn.com/ and you can download their client and use their free login names to go to the New Zealand VPN. It's only 20 minutes, but it works long enough to get the game loaded. I haven't been disconnected yet, so it's working thus far.
Works fine for me, also I've had it turned off for awhile and its still streaming fine.

Alternative method: Using a Netherlands DNS server

Anyone get this to work today? I can get to the gamepass site but when I click watch on a video it just spins and spins.

Thank you, works perfect with firefox.
I've used it every week so far perfectly. Quad box, and a second window with full screen game. Used the nlfreevpn tutorial to do it. When its spinning, I cut the vpn off, it loads up the stream, perfect hd.

Is there anyway to use this for the baseball playoffs?

They finally shut it down? Was working fine Sunday but tonight I get a subscribe button with Netherlands VPN...

What VPN? I'm using anonymx and it just gives me a weird subscribe option, but it's free. You have to enter all your info and CC info too.
I'm using Kepard, I've never had an issue with it working and its working fine right now.

Nah, there is a free version. It's only worked for me 2 out of the 10 times that I have tried it. Maybe I'm using it wrong.

Had some problems early today with the server not being recognized. So I just edited the properties by taking the "http" out of the server name, and just using "nlfreevpn.com"
working fine now
working fine now
It has always worked for me. You use the free version to open the client and select your game and then disconnect.
Look up a little something called adfreetime
$1.99/month
DNS, not VPN. Just create static DNS. No slowdowns.
Netflix region selector
No regional blackouts on major sports (NHL Gamecenter, MLB.tv, etc)
and, yes... they do route through NL for NFL Gamepass!
You're welcome.
The only catch with this is you cannot use it over 3g/4g, since you need static DNS settings.
But at home? Just add the static DNS entries into your router, and boom... you entire home network is ready to rock.

Yup, watching it now, and I'm getting the highest quality video, no freezes or slowdowns whatsoever. Not so sure why it wouldn't work on your ipad if you are at home... if you set the static DNS addresses in your router, everything in your home network should work... unless, there's already a compatibility issue with the streaming?
So glad I discovered adfreetime a couple days ago, because I was about to sign up for unblockus... but they are $5 a month and they DON'T support nfl gamepass.
I'll also be watching my Kings game in a few minutes... screw you cable companies! No more blackouts! FWAHAHA!
Ah... yeah on Android the app store won't let you download it (just tells you it's incompatible) but you can download the apk elsewhere and side load it. You might be able to do the same thing on an ipad but it would have to be jailbroken.

Everything still working fine for me. Chrome incognito + Hola Unblocker + NFLfreevpn.
