Kiss goodbye to high-speed public WiFi services

Kiss goodbye to high-speed public WiFi services

Perhaps worse, my laptop Internet connection using Steganos Anonym, which I use as a default VPN application when out and about froze up and eventually timed out on me.

Basically most secure VPN software/systems like Steganos Anonym need a healthy full duplex broadband connection to work properly.

One iTouch running the iPlayer and it zonked the connection.

I suspect that, as the iPlayer takes off, laptop VPN users could experience connection problems before too long.

I wonder if the BBC is aware of this issue?...
