Sometimes when I click on a Clip, the clip comes back with a list of Internet service providers, and I am asked which one is my ISP? What should my answer be? I'm asking because the Number of ISPs that there are, in this day and age, do not all fit on the screen, and I don't know which one I should be looking for! Can you give me any help?

I'm guessing that this has something to do with geographical restrictions, since video content from Fox is only available from within the United States.

Your internet service provider is the company that you pay for your internet connection.

This forum is only for Firefox-specific issues. If you need further assistance with this issue, you need to contact the Fox technical support team.

This is about looking at protected content (DRM protected content or content that is otherwise restricted). Fox News has an arrangement with some internet service providers that allows you to look at this protected content. This could be either the internet service provider or your cable TV provider.
