Hello! As I'm sure you're all well aware- I will be traveling to Croatia today and then India/Vietnam for the rest of the year in mid November. I've used Nord VPN in the past but found in Scotland that a lot of streaming services can somehow detect when you're out of the country regardless of VPN. I've had luck with some streaming platforms but not YouTubeTV. Does anyone have a tried and true VPN? Or other suggestions?

This won't help you now but if you travel a lot you can get a router like the gl.inet flint (or flint 2) and it can run a VPN server so you can connect to your home network while you are away from the house and streaming services on your laptop will geolocate to your house. Cell phones don't work as well because they use the gps on your phone to geolocate you.

Commercial vpn products might work, but you usually have to switch servers a lot because a lot of streaming services block them pretty quick. Some offer a dedicated residential IP address which is harder for them to catch but it is usually a game of cat and mouse.

Edit: another trick that has worked for me in the past is install the abc, fox, nbc apps and authorize them with your YouTube TV account and then use the VPN. They are less militant about shutting down known vpn ip addresses and so you can sometimes get those to work even if YouTube TV is blocking you. Another perk of that is viewing on those apps doesn't count as one of your streams from YouTube TV.

There are usually some channels on Youtube streaming the game for free. Every game this season has been rebroadcast there and most don't get taken down until after the game is over. Its a different channel week to week so just put in search terms and it should be streaming.

Nord VPN on a laptop worked for me recently. Phone it always could tell I was out of the country no matter what I tried.
