Moreover, it is also available on iOS and Android.

After downloading and installing your VPN, all you have to do is to connect by launching ExpressVPN client. Then, select a server location of your choice.

Using VPN on Windows:

Select a server location of your choice. For Sky Sports Pass, select a UK or London server.
Select OpenVPN (TCP) or (UDP). For streaming videos, we highly recommend that you use UDP as it is faster than TCP. Aside from that, they also support PPTP, SSTP and L2TP.
Click the round connect button and wait for a few seconds. Once you see the shield button turn to green, this means your VPN is turned on.

Now that you are connected to a VPN, you will be able to have an IP address coming from ExpressVPN server located in United Kingdom even though you are somewhere else. This could also be done for those who would want to watch and connect to Australia.
