How To Watch Rangers TV On LG Smart TV

Are you a Rangers fan looking to watch Rangers TV on your LG smart TV? Rangers TV provides exclusive access to Rangers content like live games, highlights, classic matches, player interviews and more. However, Rangers TV is not natively available on LG smart TVs. In this detailed guide, I will walk you through the different methods you can use to get Rangers TV on your LG smart TV.

Get A Smart DNS Service

The easiest way to watch Rangers TV on your LG smart TV is by using a Smart DNS proxy service. A Smart DNS service allows you to access geo-restricted content by routing your traffic through servers located in different countries. Here are the steps:

1. Sign up for a Smart DNS service – I recommend SmartDNSProxy or Unlocator. Make sure the service has servers located in the UK so you can access Rangers TV.
2. Configure the Smart DNS settings on your LG smart TV – Go to Network Settings and set up the Smart DNS addresses provided by your service. This allows your TV traffic to be routed through the Smart DNS servers.
3. Install the Rangers TV app – You can now install the official Rangers TV app on your LG TV from the LG Content Store. The app will work seamlessly since your TV’s location virtually appears to be in the UK.
4. Log in and start streaming – Log in with your Rangers TV subscription credentials and you are good to go! You can now stream live games and Rangers content in HD quality.

The benefit of using a Smart DNS service is that it is quick and easy to set up. There is no need to install any additional hardware or use a VPN. It also allows for fast streaming speeds since only your location is being changed, not your entire connection.

Use A VPN Service

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) also lets you access geo-blocked content by changing your virtual location. Though more complex than a Smart DNS, a VPN provides increased online security and privacy. Here are the steps to watch Rangers TV using a VPN:

1. Choose a VPN service – ExpressVPN and NordVPN are reliable choices that work well with streaming devices. Make sure to pick a server located in the UK.
2. Install the VPN app on your LG smart TV – Go to the LG Content Store and download the app for your preferred VPN service. For example, the ExpressVPN or NordVPN app.
3. Connect to a UK VPN server – Launch the app and connect to a VPN server located in the UK. This will route all your LG TV’s traffic through the encrypted VPN tunnel to the UK.
4. Install and open the Rangers TV app – You can now install and open the Rangers TV app from the LG Content Store. Since your TV is virtually located in the UK, you’ll be able to log in and live stream matches or content.

The benefit of using a VPN is that it provides an added layer of security for your internet traffic. However, VPN connections can sometimes lead to slower streaming speeds. I recommend using a Smart DNS if streaming performance is your priority or VPN if you want privacy and security.

Use an External Streaming Device

If you have an Amazon Fire TV Stick, Roku stick or Apple TV – you can install the Rangers TV app on these devices and stream to your LG TV:

1. Connect your streaming device to an HDMI port on your LG smart TV.
2. On the streaming device, add the Rangers TV channel/app using your account login details. For some devices like Amazon Fire sticks, you’ll need to switch your software region to UK first.
3. Launch the Rangers TV app and start streaming live matches and exclusive Rangers content directly onto your LG TV!

The advantage of using streaming sticks is they are affordable, dedicated streaming devices that are optimized for channels like Rangers TV. Just connect it to your TV’s HDMI port and enjoy streaming. The only catch is you’ll need to purchase additional hardware.

Connect a Laptop via HDMI

Don’t have a streaming device? Not a problem! You can simply connect your laptop to your LG TV’s HDMI port:

1. On your laptop, visit Rangers TV website and register for a paid account.
2. Use an HDMI cable to connect your Windows or Mac laptop to your LG smart TV’s HDMI port.
3. On your laptop, log in to your Rangers TV account and start playing a live stream or on-demand video. It will now broadcast directly onto your big screen LG TV!

The benefit of using your laptop is that it’s incredibly simple to set up. Just plug the HDMI cable from your laptop into TV and enjoy streaming Rangers TV! However, you will need to keep your laptop powered on and plugged in for this method.

Unlock Geo-Restrictions

Some users may find that Rangers TV streams are blocked on LG smart TVs due to geo-blocking restrictions even when using the methods described above. In that case, here are a few tips that can help unlock restrictions:

• Try resetting or reassigning your IP address to bypass blocks. On your LG TV, go to Connection > Wired Connection (Ethernet) and select Reset.
• Connect your LG TV to a VPN router instead of app to change geographic location at a network level. Popular options include NordVPN and ExpressVPN routers.
• Use a Smart DNS proxy service that can bypass geo-restrictions specifically for streaming devices without reducing speed.
• Check that your TV and streaming devices have the latest firmware updates installed, as older firmware can also trigger geo-blocks.

I hope this detailed guide covered multiple working methods to get Rangers TV working on your LG TV. While a bit complex, unlocking geo-restrictions is key to streaming Rangers TV outside the UK. Feel free to reach out in the comments if you need any help setting this up!
