Ignite TV - channel access issues on my laptop

Chuck59
I've been here awhile

For reasons unknown, when I log into the Ignite TV site from my HP laptop, it will not allow me to stream certain channels.  I get a message that tells me that I must be logged into "my home wifi" in order to watch the program "due to copyright" regulations?  I am logged into my home Rogers Wifi in my home...have no clue why this is happening?  I can watch the Channels on my TV, IPhone, IPadbut the laptop causes me all kinds of issues?  I did chat with Customer Services for about 1.5 hours last week,  They indicated that they would need to push the issue up to "engineering" for resolution.  Two days later, a received a text from Rogers telling me they couldn't solve the issue...sorry.  Unsat...there has to be a fix otherwise the "Anywhere, Anytime" line is less than forthcoming.

It may be due to IP Address Geolocation. See the following thread on the topic:

You can confirm if you go to "What is my IP" or similar website:
