Looks like I've just been unlucky so far.
Doubly so, because although we got kicked out 5 times last week we didn't miss any of Exeter's goals.
Internet bandwidth could be an issue ? Are you connecting via Wi-Fi or hard wired to the router ? Thats such an old skool question.... I can watch HD TV in the loo, whilst Clare's watching judge Judy in the bedroom.... And our router is in the living room....

Out here in Radstock I was unable to use a VPN because my Internet connection isn't quite quick enough to support one.

In Bristol its all generic sh1t....

I use a VPN called PIA (private internet access) I dont just use it for Ifollow but for most of my surfing. VPN doesnt just alter your location it also changes your I.P address making it untraceable to would be hackers etc

And our router is in the living room.... ifollow requires a minimum connection speed to view video streams, if your wi-fi connection is poor then the signal with drop out or log you out. if you can hard wire your connection. you can check your stream quality by checking on the ifollow playback settings when viewing the game. if its set to low or poor than that may be your problem ( we are talking PC Desktop version here)

Its illegal to use VPN's to watch ifollow in the UK.... Kill the sport and the team you all love why don't you.... I don’t think most people choose to watch a fixture on ifollow over going to the match in person. More like they decide to watch the game on ifollow instead of not watching it at all. The kind of person who’d rather watch a football match on television is more likely to be watching the Premier League sky sports instead. That’s what’s killing the game. Not offering ifollow locks out those who can’t afford to travel to barrow and back. Those who are self isolating from Covid. Those who are not fit and well enough to attend the match in person. Those who have too much else on in their life to travel 5 hours plus each way to the ass end of nowhere. Those who aren’t comfortable going to matches yet following Covid. Those who can, still will. It’s sh**e and no substitute for attending in person. I would really like to agree with your sentiment. However I do know fans who have started to stay away from the game and Choosing instead to watch at home. This started before lockdown. I will be watching today's game on ifollow, however I justify it to myself as I also have a season ticket. I think if results pick up then they will start to return but until that happens, they will continue to watch at home. I am trying my best to get them off their arses by sending them photos of my 2 pint glass of Thatchers from the clubhouse bar before the game.

Sounds like they wouldn’t bother at all though if they didn’t have iFollow? If you genuinely want to watch the match, and it’s not a 2 hour journey each way to see it, I don’t see why you’d choose a couple of tinnies on the sofa over a proper pint and a single camera feed over the physical match and associated match day atmosphere. That said I’m a craft beer / ale drinker and the beer isn’t the same at home as it is in a pub/bar.
