Would you like to get an IP address in the beautiful country of Ireland? Are you dreaming about visiting the Cliffs of Moher, or walk around in the Temple Bar District in Dublin, but right now, you feel satisfied just getting an IP address in Ireland? Is it complicated to get an Irish IP address?
Why do you need an Irish IP address? There can be many reasons, but maybe there is content on one of the many TV networks in Ireland that you want to stream abroad, or maybe there is content in a popular online newspaper that you can only access in Ireland? The most popular TV networks are RTÉ (Raidió Teilifís Éireann), the national public broadcaster, which operates RTÉ One and RTÉ2. Here you can watch a mix of news, entertainment, drama, and sports. Virgin Media Television is another key player, with its channels Virgin Media One, Two, and Three, delivering a wide range of entertainment, news, and sports content. TG4, the Irish-language network, is also popular for its blend of cultural programming, news, and entertainment.
When it comes to online newspapers and magazines, The Irish Times stands out as one of the leading national newspapers, offering in-depth news, analysis, and commentary. The Irish Independent is Ireland's largest daily newspaper, providing extensive coverage of both national and international news. TheJournal.ie is a popular digital platform known for its real-time updates and breaking news stories. The Irish Examiner is well-regarded for its reporting on politics, sports, and regional news. For music and cultural content, Hot Press is a widely recognized magazine, covering entertainment, music, and the arts in Ireland.
All these and many others produce content available only to those in Ireland. So, what can you do if you are located outside Ireland? You need an Irish IP address to fake your location. How can you get an IP address in Ireland? All you need is to use the VPN services of either PureVPN or NordVPN.
What is a VPN and how can it give you an Irish IP address?
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) works like a magic tunnel that lets you appear somewhere else in the world, even though you're still in your own country. Imagine you want to visit a park in Ireland without leaving your home. Normally, when you go online, your computer (or phone) shows where you're really sitting, like in your local park.
But with a VPN, it's as if you put on a magical disguise and instantly walk through a secret tunnel that connects you directly to a park in Ireland. When you step out of the tunnel, everyone thinks you're in Ireland, even though you're still at home. So, when you connect to the internet through this VPN tunnel, it gives you an Irish IP address, making websites and services think you're browsing from Ireland! In short, a VPN can "teleport" your online presence to Ireland by connecting you to a server located there.
And yes, you can access this secret tunnel using the VPN services of both PureVPN and NordVPN.
Both the mentioned providers have refund policies valid for 30 days (or 31 days). If you don't like the service, you can cancel your subscription and get a full refund within this time frame. It is brilliant that they have applications and programs available for all the big operating systems, and also directly for your browser if you use Firefox or Chrome.
What to do now?
Are you ready to step into the magic tunnel that will take you to Ireland (virtually)? Purchase a subscription to any of the two VPN providers using the links above (which will give you a nice discount on both services), download the VPN apps provided by the companies, and connect to a server in Ireland. It only takes a few minutes, and you can step into the magical tunnel (almost like the magical wardrobe in the Narnia movies) and enter Ireland virtually. If you want to check that it actually works, you can check your IP address at https://whatismyipaddress.com/ after you have connected to a server in Ireland (and you can also visit the site before you connect to check your current IP address).
Now that you have an Irish IP address it is time to visit the website of the TV network or online newspapers that you want to access (or forum or game or radio or whatever you are interested in).
I hope you have found these instructions useful. You can use both NordVPN and PureVPN to access servers in lots of countries worldwide, so if you want to stream a movie only available on Netflix in Australia, or maybe an anime series on Netflix in Japan, both services will help you with those tasks as well.
