randerto 0 Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 I can only find old threads on this topic and as it's a dynamic topic, I wanted to check and see if anyone with the Torguard VPN has had any luck using it in combination with the MLB.TV streaming service to avoid local blackouts? With the 2021 MLB season approaching in just over a week, this seems like a timely topic. The older threads from 2018 indicate users were finding that MLB.TV was detecting Torguard VPN but perhaps not other VPN's - but that was now 3 years ago - much has changed.

randerto 0 Posted March 30 Author Report Share Posted March 30 I just sent a note to that email. Was also hoping any others on this forum could report back a more recent test with Torguard VPN and MLB.TV since the MLB season will start in two days - timely indeed. With all the RSN's cutting ties with all the Streaming TV services (e.g. YouTube TV, Hulu Live, etc...), it would be very timely to know if anyone has tried Torguard VPN to get around the local blackout restrictions associated with an MLB.TV subscription. All crazy stuff to just try and watch your local MLB team this season... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
java007md 0 Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Not having any success so far this year. Worked fine in 2020. Will submit a ticket, but will also watch this thread for updates. Is there a SmartDNS configuration with Torguard? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madman660 0 Posted Tuesday at 08:03 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 08:03 PM I have used torguard with MLB.tv to avoid local blackouts for 3 years now, but its not working for 2021 season so far it appears MLB.tv has updated their systems to detect VPNs. I would love a workaround. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
