Securly and Disney+

[altecsole]

You can tell it's nearly the end of term, as several support tickets from staff about Disney+ not working!

 

We use Securly, so can anyone else with Securly please check access for me. This was working but seems to have stopped yesterday. The Developer log seems to suggest that Disney is not allowing the connection due to location. I've logged a ticket with Securly support, but it would be useful to know if this is just an issue for us.

 

 

Many thanks.

I can log in fine from sites using Securly - so might be a you specific issue I'm afraid!

Thank you. That's not what I was hoping to hear!

If I remember from last time, this may not be a Securely issue but a Disney+ blocking you, issue.  The ToS do not allow schools to play its content, so it was found that some Schools IPs had been blocked.

The easy answer is to tell the staff that they cannot play Disney+ content at school, and move on with your technical day.

Do they get to provide log in details? Could this just be Disney+ restricting access from outside the subscribers home location as per their T&Cs?

Not sure even if it is technically possible you should be doing it.

We are a State Boarding School, so it's going to be an issue if Disney+ have blocked our IP address.

Thanks all - I've emailed staff asking them to refrain from using personal streaming services in school.

Have you reached the number of devices allowed, but yes the service is only for personal use only
