How to stop your ISP from throttling BT Sport

Internet Service Providers have been known to slow or “throttle” connections based on the content you download. They can do this because most data streams are transparent — ISPs can see that you’re streaming video.

Hotspot Shield creates a secure VPN connection between your device and our servers. By encrypting your data from end-to-end, we prevent ISPs or hackers from seeing your data. This lets you watch BT Sport free from online snooping and keeps your ISP from throttling your connection.

How to watch BT Sport abroad

Whenever you connect to a Wi-Fi hotspot, you get an internet address that identifies where you are. Streaming services like BT Sport use that geo-information to determine whether you’re in their coverage area. That’s why your BT Sport live stream freely works within the EU, but not in Norway, for example.

You can turn Hotspot Shield into a BT Sport VPN by selecting “Ireland” or “United Kingdom” from our list of 80+ VPN server locations. Whether you’re touring the fjords of Trondheim or New Orleans’ French Quarter, you can always catch the latest cricket match.

Why watch ITV Hub with Hotspot Shield VPN
