    Default Market Blackout

    Does anyone here have a good method of working around the market blackouts? I have seen posts where people recommend using a proxy server but I havent had much luck. Thanks!

    I'm still having buffering issues when using "high" quality - anyone else?

    Adaptive quality works fine, but the quality isn't quite as crisp.....

    high quality stutters too much.

    Can you configure strongvpn on the BoxeeBox directly or do you need a separate device? I was hoping for a reliable (free) solution that could be configured directly on the BB without the need for any other purchases.

    Yes, you can configure VPN directly on the Boxee Box.

    I use unblock-us.com and it works great. $5 per month, which to me is worth it. You can get a free 7 day trial to test it out yourself.

    Free, No. But there are several low cost options. 5 bucks like the one above(though I believe this is a DNS reroute service and you need access to your router. This is not setup in the BB and affects all connected devices) Or the VPN service. I like this idea better as i can use it anywhere. I pay 50 a year using Ace VPN which is like Strong VPN. (50 is well worth it to me for 162 baseball ball games and 82 hockey games) Ace has instructions on their site on how to setup VPN on boxee with thier servers. It takes about 2 minutes initially to learn where to find the IPs on your PC in the VPN config files. and 1 minute if you need to change up servers each time on the boxee..

    but in the end, I am still unaware of a free way and I have been looking for years.
