Has anyone any ideas as to why I can't get UK radio on my laptop, I used to get some channels BBC talksport etc but now nadda.

BBC can never connect while others suddenly have decided I'm not in the region.

I'm with multimax if that makes any difference.

Thanks in advance

Use the VPN that Multimax provided you with. Then BBC SHOUL WORK. If you have a smart phone just download TUNE IN RADIO, it's free and simple and if you have a Bluetooth speaker no wires required. You can also use Tune In Radio on your laptop.
Hope it works well.

Well, I can't tell you WHY the Multimax 'Automatic VPN' no longer works with BBC Radio, but I have found that if you connect to their 'Manual VPN', then BBC Radio works just fine. e.g. 'Radio 4 FM'

Instructions for using the 'Multimax Manual VPN' can be found on this forum (Somewhere ) or on the Multimax website.

For a 'proper' explanation, I would suggest that you PM erolz or kbasat ....

Alternatively, you could install Kodi / XBMC on your laptop, and use the Radio 'add-on', but if you're not really comfortable 'messing about with software' I should warn you that it is not a 'trivial job'

p.s. just seen bert's post - equally valid, workable ideas
