One remote streaming international TV with a VPN; Roku and a secondary router.

One remote streaming international TV with a VPN; Roku and a secondary router. What works (What doesn't work later!) Roku media box with a secondary VPN router. Roku has apps for the streaming services I want, others don't. Specific streaming services are Britbox (USA not UK), Motortrend (USA) and Lucus Oil TV (USA). All out of the USA allows just one VPN router. Sometimes need a USA address and credit card. MyUSA, the freight forwarder gives an address in Florida. American Express, even if issued outside the USA seems to work out ok as a USA credit card. Roku registration needs a USA address and a USA credit card. Motortrend and Lucus Oil TV will work with a non-USA card if they are available in that country, in my case Australia. Roku boxes are hard to get outside of the USA. I bought mine on eBay but Amazon won't ship them and there aren't many sellers on eBay.  https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/223270910515 A general guide to setup a secondary VPN router. https://www.vpnu
