All good things come to an end. My Satellite internet is faulty and I have spent time and money trying to fix my end. Today it appears I need a new modem. As a valued customer they only want carriage cost. Quite reasonable as I will still be able to leave at a months notice.
The bad news , as expected, is the new modem needs “ a Spanish IP address. I always believed I was on borrowed time!
This is a deal breaker for me but I will start to look for an alternative Spanish unlimited 3G /4G SIM based offering. There are a number around for around 15 euros but the Movistar includes landline at the extra cost. We can manage without one now .
What this all means is I will have to master “VPNs “ pretty quickly. Firstly on the Satellite service if/when it is running again and later on the replacement service.
Any suggestions on an easy to use offering that will allow BBC iplayer , All4 downloads on the satellite? I use a Linksys E1200 router. I would hope that the router could be used on the new 3G service down the road. I don't mind a paid for service. In fact it would be preferable if easy to use and effective.

Movistar fusion rural but you have to have a landline which comes out of the Sim wallbox.
