NFL Gamepass

Get Game Pass in the US

So I live in the US and decided to try and use a VPN to register / buy it and it works! I bought an unlimited Tunnelbear account for $5 a month and can choose an IP address in most of the bigger non-US countries. So basically you download it, select your country (UK or Netherlands are what I've tried and works for sure) and then what I did was verify by going to an IP address checking website to make sure it's not showing a US location. Make sure that you clear your cache and cookies in your browser, then start it up before choosing your Tunnelbear location. Tunnelbear also has apps for the iPhone and Android (although I haven't tried either) so you could use this on your phone or tablet.

Once I verified I had a non-US IP address, I went to the Game Pass website at https://gamepass.nfl.com/nflgp/secure/packages and signed up and was able to enter my US address and credit card info no problem. They even have a free 7 day trial right now so you can try it for tonight's game and see how the quality is for you. I plan on doing that with a live game and making sure that it works before I pay for the whole season.

Then you can launch the console at http://gamepass.nfl.com/nflgp/console.jsp

Here's what I'm seeing with an archive game:

Had you have pointed it to the Netherlands you could have gotten it free. I learned about it last year. A friend of mine that was stationed with me discovered it and used it. He is doing it again this season.

I did and it seems like they aren't giving it free this year. That's actually the country I used when I registered.
 
Can multiple people use the same VPN at the same time? For example if I got a VPN and set up a Game Pass account could I then give the VPN to several people here and they set up their own Game Pass account?
 
Im in Canada and just bought it. so its not literally overseas... And for the delay, I usually focus on the game and come to the chat during halftime.... Its chaos in there live sometimes....lol

Nope only one person can be logged in at a time. But it's so cheap only $5 a month and you can actually find one cheaper if you look. I just like the ease of Tunnelbear and I know it's a solid program that won't flake out on me as I've used it in the past extensively.
 
This is stupid....I'm trying to order gamepass now but for some stupid reason it says my card and my address don't match up, which is bogus. Guess i'll try again next week.

No. Game Pass will only allow one computer at a time. If I logged in downstairs it logged me out if I then logged in upstairs.

Thanks! I just bought it and watching the NE right now.... I cant figure how to adjust the quality meter though...

Gamepass is pretty much the coolest invention ever. Well worth the money for us overseas fans.

Re the quality thing, its locked on 'auto' as default but if you click the quality meter then untick the auto button at the top it'll let you use the slider. Pretty important point as sometimes I can stream in far better quality with no buffering than what it sets as auto.
 
Simple message from me... GET IT!

Well worth it and a number of features. It's NFL network 24-7 and all the games - love the condensed replays - very helpful for Fantasy scouting , haha a

I've had that a few times before - it can be a little buggy at times, but keep trying and it usually works itself out.

On occasion - I've been able to get it set up on two separate tabs within the same browser and then screencast to two tv's if I get the timing right. Doesn't work all the time, but on occasion it does.
