On television, it will be broadcast only in prime time, but if we access it from a PC or a mobile device, the chain offers a couple of really interesting alternatives to follow the broadcast live:
- From the website NBCOlympics.com.
- Using the mobile app NBC Sports App. This app is available for both Android and iOS, as well as Windows, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, and more.
All NBC content features geographic restriction. If we are not residents of the United States - or we are simply traveling in another country - we can also watch NBC broadcasts. But for it we will need a VPN connection (take a look at the end of the article).

In Spain it has been Discovery the chain that has been made with the rights of emission of the Olympic Winter Games. DMAX has television on demand, so we can see the specials and best moments in your DPlay online player.
Unfortunately the only way to see the course of the games in real time is by tuning in to your TV channel. However, in DPlay they have uploaded a few programs on the occasion of the winter games that are not bad at all. You can see them from HERE.
On Mexico, the games will be broadcast via the signal of America Movil.

The BBC never fails in these types of events, and the 2018 Winter Olympics were not going to be less. We can see the broadcasts of hockey, curling, skating and the rest of the disciplines in streaming from:
- From the platform BBC iPlayer on the BBC website, accessing with our favorite browser.
- Using the mobile app BBC Media Player.
To watch the BBC online and in streamingAs with NBC content, we will need to make use of a VPN connection.
A VPN connection is essential to watch the BBC from outside the UKHow to watch the 2018 Winter Olympics with a VPN connection
In order to view content with regional restrictions, such as the American NBC or the English BBC, we will need a VPN connection.
If we are looking for a quick solution, we just have to install some free application, such as TunnelBear, available for both PC and mobile devices and connect to a US or UK server.
The process to establish the connection is very simple:
- We install TunnelBear on our phone or computer.
- We open the application and select the place of connection (USA or UK).
- Once the connection is established, we just have to open the app or page of the NBC or BBC to see the games live.
TunnelBear offers a maximum of 1GB of free connection. If we want more, we will have to contract the paid version.
Another alternative is to use one of the most popular and consistent VPN services of the moment, NordVPN. Its operation is practically identical to that of TunnelBear, and for less than 10 euros per month we will have access and private browsing to watch the Winter Olympics from start to finish.
