What is a Virtual Private Network (VPN) ?

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is an increasingly popular form of proxy for security, to stay private on the net and to allow you have a US IP address. A VPN is about creating a private network or tunnel over the public network "internet".  

A VPN connection is an attractive option for people concerned about their security and privacy.

A VPN is also useful to users who are looking for a US IP. By using our VPN hosting package you can get a US IP on your machine or device, so it will be appear to rest of the world as if you are from US.

What does a VPN connection give me?

  • Watch US TV online whilst abroad.
  • Provides a layer of security and privacy
  • Prevents local Internet Service Provider from regulating your connection.
  • Prevents harassment from people tracking you by your IP address.
  • Safe/encrypted connection between your computer and the Internet.
  • Access blocked sites and bypass proxy and content filters.

It depends on which cables you require but pc/mac-tv-connect have all the solutions. A basic cable kit can be bought from TV Cables and once you're connected the quality of the picture is exactly like your TV at home.
