    I use PureVPN to grab a UK IP when travelling or to watch US TV from home and it's been perfect. It's a couple of quid a month if you sign up for a year.

    Ah yup, it's not a 2nd access route, it does remote control and display the box it's connected to. Unless you have 2 boxes it's not a viable solution.

    It's not a VPN, but it does allow you to watch your TV pretty much anywhere. I've used one for years all over the place.
    Agree Slingbox, but if you're several timezones apart.

    I use https://www.my-private-network.co.uk an annual subscription, reliable much of the time. But I use it for all countries not just the UK, like when following the tennis or football.
