You are more than an novice sounds like, lol.I'm into to it now , android, enigma2, android phone, iphone, apps etc at least now I'll now its not my error. I have strong dislike of the sky/tnt sports pundits so go elsewhere.
I have an ASUS router now and the last software upgrade means you can allocate a VPN per device. I did a bit of messing today and it would go on and off depending if vpn was used or not.
But advice it still the same.
