My IPTV stream is strangely blocked from 2pm until 10pm exactly. That seems strange as the stream works like a charm on my mobile (non EE) or behind a vpn during that period
EE told me that there is no traffic management. Yet it seems there is. Anyone experiencing the same?

If you are using a VPN then your carrier won't know if you are watching illegal TV services. If you are not then the IP for the streams could be blocked by BT/EE as there was recently a fresh round of bannings via the courts recently.
Also depending on your IPTV service it could be the source as these services are a gamble.

I suspect it will be the times your IPTV provider changes IP to try and avoid detection. If it is using a blocked IP for you then the channel that IPTV uses won’t show up. It works when you are on a VPN as your IP is the VPN not the IPTV stream.
In the UK it is always worth using a VPN for these services, or some come with one built in “stealth” etc..
