Do online sports books work with Voom Internet

[gardenmwm]

I was wondering if anyone has tried the online sports books, specifically DraftKings and Caesar’s with their phone hooked up via Voom internet?

I don't see why they would work.  Royal seems pretty generous with regards to what traffic they allow.

 

That being said, if you do run into problems, connect to your VPN first.  That will tunnel your traffic.

 

Good luck.

 Sounds like first hand experience with sites other than sportsbooks.

Biggest issue would be location I would think with these type of sites.

The internet would work. But the apps may look at the landing point of the network. That's why when you type "google.com", you sometimes are greeted in another language since the satellite downlink is landing somewhere unexpected.

Again, VPN will handle the location issue (if it exists) as well.

I recommend surf n stream especially if connecting with a vpn

I had heard that Royal's WiFi didn't always play nice with VPN's so I didn't even think about using that for the location aspect of the sports sites. I'll be trying it out for sure in a week or so.

Only some VPNs don't work and depending on where the ship is, it may still use a US based downlink location.

I usually do a Caribbean cruise and I am now retired.  However, when I was working and checked after the fact where my connections were from, they were always Miami.  If I used our VPN, they showed the corporate home.

Mobile sports books will not work when at sea as they require gps location access to verify location.  VPN solution doesnt work for mobile sports betting as they need to have access to the gps location not the IP location.  Now this is all the US state based regulated sites, if you do offshore betting that would most likely work.
