UK home proxy server for Internet radio in Vietnam

Hi,
I recently bought a Cambridge Audio Minx Air 200, for my apartment in Vietnam so that I could play internet radio stations like Radio 1, unfortunately I can't access the BBC radio stations through the player unless I go through apps like Tunein (which defeats the point of having a standalone internet radio).

I have a house in England with internet that I could use as a proxy server.

Could someone explain to me how I could go about setting this up so I could listen to the internet radio stations in England. Ideally with needing a computer in the house on all the time (if thats possible).

The settings on the Air 200 give you an option for a proxy server & proxy server port.

Thanks
Pete
 
Assuming that it determines location by IP address and it is location that is blocking you, the best solution would be a VPN on your router that gives you a UK IP address. I use Astrill VPN on a router flashed with DD-WRT for that purpose in China (I want a USA IP address but Astrill has UK servers as well).
