I know that it is more difficult to get BBCIPlayer nowadays - I understand they block it. However until lately we have been able to access this through a 'box' with it's own 'Rabbit' VPN. In the last week we have not been able to do this. Does anyone else have this problem using a 'box' for access?

Just noticed this post :

Do you pay or have a UK TV Licence?

To watch or download BBC iPlayer here, you need to use a VPN or some kind of smart DNS. If you do a search on the forum, you will find lots of info. The Beeb are getting quite tough on the use of VPN's of late, so it's worthwhile doing a trial run, before paying.....and even then, that is no guarantee.

To watch BBC without a VPN/smartDNS you can use https://tvcatchup.com/ or https://tvplayer.com/channels , am sure there are apps for both for Apple and android.
There are other options available, just giving you what little info that I have, as I don't really stream tv, and don't use an android tv box or firestick. There is plenty of information on these on this forum too, with instructions on how to set up the likes of Kodi.
