iTV Hub, also known as Independent Television Network, is a content streaming platform and a video on demand service where users can watch a variety of programmes ranging from movies, tv shows, live events, and many more. It’s based in the United Kingdom and is home to a lot of British shows. iTV Hub is free to use, provided you create an account, and is available on many devices.

Unfortunately, iTV Hub is only available in the UK and people who live outside of it won’t be able to access or watch iTV Hub. Even if you’re a UK resident, when you travel outside the country then you will not be able to access iTV Hub anymore. The best way to bypass this geo-restriction is to change your location through a iTV Hub proxy.

A iTV Hub proxy will handle all of your web requests for you so any website you visit will only be able to see the IP address of the proxy server and not your own IP address. This means that you can easily change your location by choosing a UK IP for your proxy server. Whenever you visit iTV Hub, then it would seem like you’re a user from the UK and not from where you originally are.

To effectively unblock and access iTV Hub abroad while also preventing the iTV Hub website from recognizing that you’re using a proxy, you need to use the best iTV Hub proxies which are residential proxies. Residential proxies use actual residential IPs from real devices making it impossible for iTV Hub to detect that you’re using a proxy and make it seem like you’re actually from the UK.

Let’s set up an iTV Hub proxy server.

Note: Make sure that the web browser you’re using for iTv Hub is set to automatically copy your computer’s proxy settings. Google Chrome automatically does this, so it’s recommended to use it.

How To Use Proxies With iTV Hub

For Windows:

To set up proxies in Windows, simply search for “Proxy Settings” in your windows search bar and open the search result.

You are then given two options to choose from: Automatic proxy setup or Manual proxy setup. If you want windows to automatically detect your proxy settings, choose the first option. Choose the second option if you want to utilize a specific ip address and port number.

If you chose the first option, then:

  1. Turn on Automatically detect Settings
  2. Turn on Use setup script
  3. Enter the script address
  4. Click Save

If you chose the second option, then:

  1. Turn on Use a proxy server
  2. Input both server address and port number
  3. If you have any addresses you would like to visit without a proxy, enter them here
  4. Turn on Don’t use the proxy server for local addresses check box if you want to access a local server without a proxy
  5. Click Save

This should then redirect you to MacOS proxy settings. MacOS is more straightforward compared to windows. You only have one option which is to manually configure your proxy server.

Here are the steps to follow:

  1. Select which proxy IP protocol you want to configure. This depends on which protocols your proxy service provider offers.
  2. Turn on Secure Web Proxy
  3. Input the Proxy Server Address and Port Number
  4. Click OK to save the configurations

Note: You may be prompted for your Mac user password to save your settings.

For Mobile:

To set up an iTV Hub proxy server for your mobile device, simply change your phone’s proxy settings. The iTV Hub app will automatically copy your phone’s proxy settings whenever you use it. This is applicable for both Android and iOS. Here’s a thorough guide for Android and another one for iPhone.

Congratulations! You have now finished configuring an iTV Hub proxy server. Note that the first time you visit it, there will be a pop up asking for your login credentials.
