The Olympics and Shop My Exchange

NBC Sports has partnered with the military’s ShopMyExchange.com site to provide live streaming of Olympic events. All that’s required is to have ShopMyExchange.com account and a free account on NBCOlympics.com. If you’re active duty, reservist, National Guard, or veteran, you’re eligible for the ShopMyExchange account. That Exchange site substitutes for the television service provider on the NBC Olympics site.

I’ve been trying to get the thing to work but no luck. Have any other military types here tried this and had success?

“OCONUS access will be on-installation only through a contracted Exchange Internet provider”.

There’s your problem right there. You’ll can only access it on-base. Otherwise, you’ll need a VPN overseas.

I’m currently on vacation on base in Korea. Let me give it a shot with my VPN.

ETA: And now there’s nothing live on the site. I’ll give it another shot tomorrow night local time in Korea.

Thanks!
