Am i correct here , been using an ethernet connection to my T8 , watching !tv app for live uk tv . Last night i downloaded a smartdns , now to do this i had to switch my internet connection to wifi.
Now to watch !tv and film om live uk tv i have to switch back to ethernet. Not a problem mind but i can still access BBCiplayer on the wifi connection ? Would have thought this would be blocked like the uk tv channels. Or is all to do with accessing the channels from apps as opposed to through my xbmc

I would have thought that XBMC used whichever DNS settings you stored in Android's Settings area, as I only see entries for entering a proxy server in XBMC, no DNS entries.
SmartDNS didn't work via Ethernet? I think it might be worth contacting their support team, explaining your situation, and seeing if they've come across this issue before. If you get a spare moment afterwards, could you post back any solution they offered, in case other forum members come across this problem in the future?
