beIN Sports Connect Anywhere – The Full Review

With the steps above, you can easily unlock beIN Sports in your region. However, there’s a lot more to know about the channel, why it blocks its content, and how to get it on your device. Check everything in this detailed walkthrough.

beIN, yet Still Out of Certain Regions

beIN Sports Connect is one of the most popular streaming services in the world. In fact, the service has more than 14 million subscribers in the US, 12+ million for its Spanish-language counterpart, and around 500K+ in the MENA region.

These are some big numbers, but we all know why – PREMIUM SPORTS CONTENT. Unfortunately, not every country has the privilege to tune in to the biggest matches in sports.

beIN Connect applies geo-blocking. It restricts user access based on their location. It checks your IP address the moment you visit its website or launch its dedicated app.

If the IP address reflects a country where its services are not provided, you’ll be blocked instantly. The following errors are what you get if you’re accessing beIN Sports Connect overseas:

• “An error occurred. Unknown error. Error code: 1.”
• “An error occurred. Security Recording. Error code: 13001.”
• “Video not available. This video is not available in your region.”
• “beIN Sports Connect is currently not available in your country.”
  

But wait, there’s more. These errors reflect the inability to access or sign up to beIN abroad. However, if you’re an existing subscriber, another error pops up.

You might find a way to access the channel’s home, but when you log in, rest assured that no video, including highlights, is going to play. Instead, this is what you get:

• “This channel is not included your subscription.”

Even if beIN Connect is supported in the region you’re currently in, you can’t use an account created elsewhere. If you created your account in the Middle East, you can only use it there.

The same goes for every version of beIN Sports. It might seem daunting, and it is. However, you can fix this and stream beIN Sports wherever you are by following the steps above.

VPN 101 – What Do You Get?

VPN refers to a Virtual Private network. It tunnels all your traffic to a new source, which shows streaming services and websites that you’re in a different location.

How? Well, a VPN changes your IP address based on the server you connect to. For example, if the server is in Algeria, you’ll get an Algerian IP address.

That’s exactly what you need in order to unblock beIN Sports Connect anywhere. A VPN has a lot of benefits and we’ve listed them below:

• With a VPN, all traffic is encrypted. Thus no inspection or monitoring from ISPs or otherwise
• You can unblock major streaming services with a push of a button.
• VPN is resilient to ISP restrictions that break Smart DNS. Namely DNS Hijacking and Transparent Proxies.
• May improve speed by bypassing ISP throttling.

With so many VPNs on the market, you can never tell which one is the best for unblocking beIN Sports. That’s why we’re here to help.

We tested several VPNs, at least the ones with servers in the Middle East. Most of them failed, including top competitors in the industry.

However, one prevailed when we tested its Algerian server. BulletVPN is well known for its unblocking capabilities and it keeps proving that.

We highly recommend using the provider for beIN Sports or any hard-to-unblock channel out there. It doesn’t disappoint.

You can also give any of these top VPN providers to watch BeIN Sports in the UK, US, Australia.

How to Create a beIN Connect Account Outside the MENA Region
