Hi Peeps.

Firstly I know I don’t need a VPN for Real Debrid. I like to use them anyway, for extra safety.

Ok we have been using RD with a VPN for about 5 years, usually with Kodi etc. We moved to Stremio about a year or so ago and all was fine up until about a week ago when I kept on getting “Source Error” on my streaming box, which is a Thomson 270, a version of the Onn box.
If I change the VPN destination everything works again, but only for a few days.

Now here’s the thing, if I use the same set up of Stremio RD and VPN on my android phone I get absolutely no blocks and no issues at all. The same goes for my PC.

So the issue is only happening on the Thomson.
Does anyone have any ideas why?

    We do use torrentio, but we have also been using it from the beginning. And we’ve had the streaming box for about 8 months…

      At least with Proton VPN, it seems that some VPN servers are blocked while others aren’t. Trying with one server worked, while another resulted in a 403 Forbidden error.
