Today I was reading a posting on M247's site, where they mentioned that in the year 2020, they plan to expand/have expanded into three new locations, one of which being Lisbon, Portugal. AirVPN previously had some servers in Portugal but unfortunately the provider shut down services there and AirVPN has not been able to find a new provider for services in Portugal. M247 is already well regarded in terms of being used for VPN services with performance that is usually quite good, and I have had a dedicated server with them for two years and had good experiences, in addition M247 is already used at multiple other AirVPN locations, and I think they would be a good choice for servers in Portugal for users who would like to have servers there.

Dear Staff, After multiple people, including me, already mentioned in this thread - https://airvpn.org/topic/11908-new-1-gbits-server-available-nihal-es/ - whenever we connect to the Nihal server, ANY service (in my case TV and Pay-TV, which very annoyingly does not work with your "Spanish" server) recognises Nihal as being in Lisbon, Portugal. Furthermore it is supposedly registered to a portuguese name, too. If I understood you guys right, the server actually is in Spain, but that does not change anything for us users, as every "normal" ip-checking website locates the server in Portugal. So the server actually being in Spain, but showing itself as Portuguese to basically every website I was testing, does not help at all. It is rather unpleasant that internet-based Spanish Pay TV contents are not possible to access with AirVPN. The old spanish servers, albeit supposedly much slower, worked perfectly in that respect. As we didn't get any additional and/or problem-solving replies in the above attached thread, I would appreciate it very highly if you could help us out with this and fix that problem. Having said all that, I want to emphasize that I absolutely love AirVPN and what you guys offer. I think it is amazing and you have all my respect for the way you are running AirVPN. The above problem is the only drop of bitterness I am experiencing. Cheers
