IG Live

[honestdon]

Hi,

When I get a notification to watch IG Live - On Air Now, I want to watch it.  I remember a few months ago it worked but now it doesn't.  When I click on watch, it doesn't load.  Anyone else having this problem?

 

I've tried on Safari and Firefox.

 

Thanks for your help!

HI,

 

Thank you for the reply.  I fixed the problem.  Trying it on Chrome didn't work.  What fixed it was I run NordVPN and that was blocking it for some reason.  After I disconnected the VPN connection, the IG Live feed worked.  And now after turning the VPN connection back on, the feed still works.  Go figure?!

 

Thanks again.

I haven't heard of any issues but if anyone else is experiancing the same as @honestdon please let me know. 

I've just tried on Chrome and it did work. Can you let me know if that work for you.

Same problem here, been happening for a while..  Like honestdon, if I switch off my VPN (not Nord), and then click the IGLive banner all is good, but apart from that I cannot watch IG Live anymore at all.  This only started happening over the last few months.  The link pauses at "establishing secure connection". 

If I pause the VPN, click the IG Live link all is good with that particular broadcast even if I re-start the VPN,... however if I try to start a new session of IG Live it fails again.

It will be impossible to test for all traders because you get so many different vpn's, it would also depend on which country the vps is set to. When traders created the vps it was most likely not tested on a vpn.

 

It you're really struggling, I would advise calling us in case there's a quick fix but we don't give vpn support generally. Sorry about that.
