I have a camp and I was thinking about getting VUE at home, and using the same login at my camp. It's about 100 miles away in a different ZIP Code, is there anything that I can do?

No, but you can use the login to access any of the channel apps.

Their FAQ says you can change the location only one time.

No, it is tied to your IP address.

You can use your same login. I do it all the time when I'm in Denver.

So in Denver, you use your same login and all your channels are there?

Short answer, yes and no.

You can only use the full deal at your original home IP, where you initially signed up.

Some channels are available via PS Vue mobile outside of your home network and some are mobile restricted, meaning they can only be viewed on your home network.

I am pretty positive that all of your DVR'd material is watchable outside of the home network too.

How can they do that when most ISPs use DHCP and user could get a different IP from them at any time?

They check to see if your IP is located in your home zip code.

not true. AMC doesn't allow Vue as a login credential.

All the ones I watch are there. The only thing I've noticed that I can't get is the local Denver CBS station. I get WAFB here through VUE.

Just checked and you are correct. However, I don't see why he would think I was talking about channel apps that you can't access without a login.

No. I tried to watch a game I had recorded at a friend's place in the same city. You have to change your location. I had to do it when I moved.

Maybe there is a way around it with a vpn. But I really don't know.

Maybe they did change it, I forgot I can pull it up on my phone and watch. But this past football season it said I had to call and change my location when I tried to bring it up on my friend's ps4.

I knew I wasn't lying. PlayStation Vue isn't listed for me in the AMC app.
