Part 1: About BBC iPlayer<\/strong><\/h2>\n
What is BBC iPlayer? Why is it so popular among UK citizens and even overseas people? As an internet streaming, television, catchup and radio service, BBC iPlayer is a website where you can take a view of all BBC programs shortly after broadcast for up to 30 days on your computer. You can watch BBC programs via BBC iPlayer in various methods, including mobile phones, tablets, PC and smart televisions. Usually, you will only need to log in the BBC iPlayer official website to watch the programs you like straightly or download and keep them directly on your computer. The good news is it is totally free to all viewers in UK even without any commercial advertising fees. But now what the pity thing is this policy is not applicable for overseas viewers, for example in USA. How to watch BBC iPlayer in USA exactly? The most popular ways to watch BBC iPlayer in USA are to use VPN and change DNS settings. For the details, let's find out the following article. <\/p>\n

<\/a>\n<\/div>\nPart 2: Use VPN to watch BBC iPlayer in USA<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Among the various methods to watch BBC iPlayer in USA, the most direct and easy way is to make full use of a VPN. VPN is short for virtual private networks which can be used to allow you surf the internet without any region limitation and protect your privacy at the same time. VPN can also allow you to hide your IP address and location, encrypt your communications, and watch your favorite content all over the world. Even when you are in USA and you want to watch BBC iPlayer, the VPN can virtually relocate your computer or mobile devices by offering access to an IP address from USA. Then you will be able to watch BBC iPlayer in USA smoothly. But now choosing a proper VPN will be the key factor. At the top of the recommended list of VPN, NordVPN is very popular in recent years because it is quite easy to handle and has top ranking of security protection. After you have bought the VPN, you only need to run the VPN and set the service country to UK. Finally, you can watch the BBC iPlayer successfully. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nPart 3: Change DNS settings to watch BBC iPlayer in USA<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Compared with use of VPN which mainly try to change the IP given to your device through the internet connection, changing the DNS to a UK address will be easier and more essentially. Before changing DNS, you need to make sure that your router is allowed to make a change on the DNS. Then go to some professional DNS website to have a search on the DNS addresses list which are all free. Here you can take a try on DroidKid where you can obtain a lot of free DNS addresses for your choices. First of all, find out the DNS setting on your computer or mobile devices, enter the new UK DNS address. Finally take a try on the new DNS and then you can surf the UK websites. But pay attention please, changing the DNS may result in losing your privacy safety and the slower speed. <\/p>\n
