Error 403 — VPN playlist used without VPN

The VPN playlist is selected, but you are not connected to a VPN.

What does it mean?

Error 403 can appear when the VPN playlist is used while a VPN is not connected.

Common cause

VPN / playlist mismatch. The VPN playlist is for VPN connections only.

How to fix it

  1. If you are not using a VPN, switch back to the normal / NO-VPN playlist.
  2. In TVCrown TiviMate, go to Settings → Playlists → Add Playlist.
  3. Select the normal TVCrown / NO-VPN playlist.
  4. Load the playlist and try again.
  5. If you are using a VPN, connect to the VPN first and use the VPN playlist instead.

When to contact support

If you have switched to the correct playlist and Error 403 is still showing, contact support.
