Yatze, other remotes do not work when using VPN? - Sdpbc - 2018-01-08

Hey guys,

Decided to get a VPN service as there was a sale over the holidays and thought I would try one out for geoblocking purposes. So got IpVanish.

Now however, I can't use any remote app on my phone to use as a remote (like Yatze or Cetus Play).

Presumably because the IP address my Kodiak box displays is not my router assigned IP address?

Is there a fix for this that doesn't involve shutting down IpVanish?

Thx!

We do not support VPN usage here as Kodi's designed operating case does not need one. VPN configuration issues and issues induced by their usage are down to the user to solve if they wish to use them.

We also do not support bypassing geoblocking here.
