The fix is to use your provider&rsquo;s <strong>VPN DNS<\/strong>: it always comes with your IPTV login details and always starts with <strong>vpn<\/strong>. If your provider didn&rsquo;t send one, contact them. On the Hot Player website, open Upload List with your MAC, replace the Host (or the server part of your M3U link) with the VPN DNS, select Save, then select Refresh in the app.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f8063ad e-con-full iptv-tip e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f8063ad\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-33154e4 elementor-view-stacked elementor-shape-circle elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"33154e4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-info\" viewBox=\"0 0 192 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M20 424.229h20V279.771H20c-11.046 0-20-8.954-20-20V212c0-11.046 8.954-20 20-20h112c11.046 0 20 8.954 20 20v212.229h20c11.046 0 20 8.954 20 20V492c0 11.046-8.954 20-20 20H20c-11.046 0-20-8.954-20-20v-47.771c0-11.046 8.954-20 20-20zM96 0C56.235 0 24 32.235 24 72s32.235 72 72 72 72-32.235 72-72S135.764 0 96 0z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78c5eaa e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"78c5eaa\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0efb721 iptv-free-note elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0efb721\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Example: VPN DNS for Xtream Codes and M3U<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-91d6c3a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"91d6c3a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>VPN DNS:<\/strong><\/p><div class=\"iptv-copy\"><code class=\"iptv-copy-text\">http:\/\/vpn.dream-4k.co<\/code><button type=\"button\" class=\"iptv-copy-btn\" aria-label=\"Copy link\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><rect x=\"9\" y=\"9\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" rx=\"2\"\/><path d=\"M5 15H4a2 2 0 0 1-2-2V4a2 2 0 0 1 2-2h9a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v1\"\/><\/svg><span class=\"iptv-copy-label\">Copy<\/span><\/button><\/div><p><strong>Xtream Codes Host:<\/strong><\/p><div class=\"iptv-copy\"><code class=\"iptv-copy-text\">http:\/\/vpn.dream-4k.co<\/code><button type=\"button\" class=\"iptv-copy-btn\" aria-label=\"Copy link\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><rect x=\"9\" y=\"9\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" rx=\"2\"\/><path d=\"M5 15H4a2 2 0 0 1-2-2V4a2 2 0 0 1 2-2h9a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v1\"\/><\/svg><span class=\"iptv-copy-label\">Copy<\/span><\/button><\/div><p><strong>M3U link:<\/strong><\/p><div class=\"iptv-copy\"><code class=\"iptv-copy-text\">http:\/\/vpn.dream-4k.co\/get.php?username=YOUR_USERNAME&amp;password=YOUR_PASSWORD&amp;type=m3u_plus&amp;output=ts<\/code><button type=\"button\" class=\"iptv-copy-btn\" aria-label=\"Copy link\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><rect x=\"9\" y=\"9\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" rx=\"2\"\/><path d=\"M5 15H4a2 2 0 0 1-2-2V4a2 2 0 0 1 2-2h9a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v1\"\/><\/svg><span class=\"iptv-copy-label\">Copy<\/span><\/button><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0626ce0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0626ce0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Still not working?
