Moving abroad usually means losing your home channels. IPTV brings them back on any device with internet.
Before you move
- Choose a service that works abroad. Viking IPTV has no IP restrictions.
- Bring or buy a streaming stick that works with the local TV (HDMI is universal).
- Note that your home ISP's own TV app usually stops working abroad.
Settling in
- Get stable internet first; a mobile hotspot is fine for a week, not for months.
- Set the device to your new time zone; the guide converts times.
- Build a favourites list of home channels.
Common mistakes
| Mistake | Better |
|---|---|
| Buying 24 months before testing at the new home | Start with one month |
| Relying on hotel Wi-Fi | Use mobile data or wait for home internet |
| Fixed GMT offset in settings | Choose your city |
