Today we shall show you how to set up a router to run a Smart DNS service so you can access UK TV online services when outside the UK.

Satellite TV in Spain – Freesat in Spain – UK TV in Spain
We install UK TV systems for the Costa Blanca North and Valencia areas of Spain.
We offer TV systems to suit all requirements and needs for your home, bar or business. Whether you are looking for a new installation, upgrade or maintenance of your TV system, then we can assist you.
We have been installing and repairing satellite TV systems since 2003, with family members installing satellite TV systems years prior to that, making us one of the most established UK TV services in the area.
We can install new digital satellite systems, conduct fault-finding, carry out satellite dish re-alignments, removal of old satellite dishes, and upgrade your current system, or provide additions viewing locations.
With Freesat TV you have the best free UK TV service there is – with 150 subscription free UK TV channels, including BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Five, Dave and many more. And over 20 channels available in crystal clear HD.
Watch subscription free UK TV with Freesat
Watch free and legal UK TV with Freesat
Record UK TV for free with Freesat
With a VPN access the UK TV Catch UP services like iPlayer and ITVX on Freesat
We use only the best high performance 125 x 135 cm satellite dish – probably the best satellite dish for UK TV reception in Spain
We use only the best high performance LNBs – easily outperforms other LNBs we have seen being used by other “installers”
We use only Official Freesat or Freesat HDR recording receivers – including the Freesat 4K Set top box
When we install a Freesat satellite system, we use official Freesat Set Top Boxes. Some UK satellite TV installation companies offer you an Iberosat, Ferguson Ariva or GI Galaxy Innovations satellite receiver, claiming it is a Freesat Set Top Box. These satellite receivers are NOT Freesat Set Top Boxes, but basic “free to air” satellite receivers. These types of receivers will NOT have the Freesat logo, the Freesat Guide, Automatic Channel updates, a full 7 day programme guide, or access to online “on demand” content such as BBC iPlayer.
Satellite TV is still the most popular and reliable way to watch UK TV in Spain.
Satellite TV is live and direct from the broadcasters, in full 1080 HD, Dolby Digital Audio channels.
Satellite TV will not be closed down by the authorities for being illegal.

Hi Jon, this looks like a really useful option – I think!
At present I use an Amazon Firestick to access Netflix, but I’m not able to view in Spain the entire content of BBC iPlayer or other UK streaming services. I presume the Smart DNS service would overcome this problem.
However, a couple of questions – we have Hola wi-fi so can it work with their router, and also, we are part-year residents so what is the DNS monthly charge, as I assume we would be paying for the entire year?
Yes, if you want to access UK content like iPlayer from outside the UK, then you need a VPN or Smart DNS service.
Yes it should work with Hola wifi router…just connect a second router to your hola wifi router and set the VPN or Smart DNS service up on that second router.
VPNs and smart dns services offer a range of payment options, usually monthly or yearly
