Don't know about firestick or kodi but don't you have VPN which should mean they work ok as you would appear to be in UK? John

Can't see why it wouldn't work, but it depends on the speed of the hotel wifi too, in the last few places I've stayed the speed has been horrendous.

In terms of needing a VpN, why would you, it's not like the setup is strictly above board in the first place...... Whistle

Oh and plus you will need a hotel with a fairly up to date tv with a USB port... There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I'm not sure how streaming TV works nowadays but in the past, you had to use a proxy server to view UK TV services like iPlayer from abroad.

They may be able to recognise a French IP address and block certain channels/services.

It's iPlayer that restricts it's content to UK IP addresses due to licensing issues

As NMJ says - no reason koi would do that.
