What if i live in central IL...but i will be on vacation? Does it go by IP or address?It's on ESPN+ but only in the MVC states. So if you live outside of the midwest, too bad.

Wow, that's the first I've heard of ESPN+ doing thisIt's on ESPN+ but only in the MVC states. So if you live outside of the midwest, too bad.

I believe address as you can not have your privacy selection enabled when you use ESPN plus … ie your location has to be known to them. That has been that way this season (at least) as early in the season I tried to watch an Isu bball game and I received a message that ESPN plus, due to licensing requirements, requires a users location to validate there are no restrictions (something to that effect).What if i live in central IL...but i will be on vacation?

Yeah streaming is always going to use your geo location to decide if you can watch if you are on a device (like a phone or tablet) that has geo services built in.I believe address as you can not have your privacy selection enabled when you use ESPN plus … ie your location has to be known to them.

Here’s a headscratcher: I live in Illinois, was in Phoenix in February with my Illinois-ROKU and watched both Men and Women bball from my hotel in Happy Valley?!?! Regular season rules differ from the tournament?

I would never tell you that you could try a VPN on a laptop and see if that works though. Nope, I'd never do that and you should not do that. Nope.
Anyone know Burford’s health status?
Probably. Get yer IP Mask ready. FYI I’ve been in a non MVC State (in more ways than one) most of the winter and espn+ has been fine. Maybe cracking down for Bally restrictions for the tournament thoWhat if i live in central IL...but i will be on vacation? Does it go by IP or address?
If they are without him that will be a big blow. Would like to see us jump out to a big lead and then expand our rotation. If we win Thursday then it will be a sorry rotation Friday.Evansville fan on MVCFans said he hasn't fully recovered from rhe foot injury that forced him to miss a bunch of games. Guess we shall see how effective he is Thursday night.
A blowout win is unlikely but would be great. I want Pedon to ride the guys that can get us a win on Thursday and then worry about Friday when/if it comes.If they are without him that will be a big blow.

The Roku device is regulated based on the zip code that's in the settings. I found this out because I get Arizona locals and was perplexed as to why. Did some digging and found out that for some reason unbeknownst to me it is showing an Arizona zip code in the settings. I've tried changing it, but I still get the Arizona local channels, including all Arizona Cardinal football games that they show on their local Phoenix channel regardless of national coverage. Truly a bizarre situation. All that said, I've never been blacked out on being able to watch Illinois or Illinois St. games though so I haven't pressed any further to try to change it.Here’s a headscratcher: I live in Illinois, was in Phoenix in February with my Illinois-ROKU and watched both Men and Women bball from my hotel in Happy Valley?!?!

I don't know how Roku works, but YouTube TV uses your phone to se the location for the service, even on an AppleTVThe Roku device is regulated based on the zip code that's in the settings.
