been using IPTV for about 18 months or so in my sitting room and I have had issues from time to time but it’s quite seldom tbh, have sky in the bedroom just in case it ever goes belly up, not sure I could go back to paying for all the sports again though it’s just too expensive. Looks like they are going all out to cut out illegal streaming of the epl in a few weeks but time will tell if they can stop it completely. If I was you I would try one out for a month and see what you think of it.

Try it out for a few months and see what you think. It’s definitely not as smooth and reliable as sky/bt but it only costs 10% what they charge. Every student world wide is streaming their movies and sport content so there is a massive market out there. The hackers move faster than sky/bt. But if you are watching 20 hours of sport a week then get sky/Bt as you are making full use out of it. ------------- |

Probably be best to also get a VPN to mask your streaming activity from your internet provider. Only costs a few quid a month. You'd still be saving a fortune on paying full whack for a legit BT/Sky sub.  ------------- The nation holds it's breath...YES, WE'RE THERE!!! |

IPTV's days are numbered I reckon. Samsung removed them from their TV's after their last updates, more companies will follow I suspect.

Yeah the same crowd that said they did a great job in cutting down illegal streams last year, while streams were easier to find and better than they've ever been in general. They will try but the won't succeed.

I got it on me phone recently. 40 quid I paid to a friend. For 40 quid for the year you can't go wrong having all the channels on the go. Still need to figure out how to chromecast it though, none of the players compatible with it seem to allow it. After me wedding in going to get a smart tv and can either move the account from me android to that or else get a second one. It's handy having it on the phone for when on the go (e.g. having it on me work desk during early kick offs at world cup) but would be better if I could watch certain things on the tv when I'm sitting at homd, for example, when I couldn't figure out how to cast I had to watch the ufc ppv on me phone I haven't had sky in 2 years. Never got an android box either. Get by with her mams sky go on the PlayStation, Netflix and movie HD on the android chromecast. But this thing is handy for BT Sports etc.

Look first Prem game of the season always hard to stream then everything just frees up the next week , that's how it works at present . I have never had sky and never will , look at it this way the lad who sits next to me pays €1680 a year to watch football / sport where I pay nothing . Or think of it another way I get to see Ireland play away twice for what he will pay to watch TV , when you think of it that way what would you rather do ? ------------- Lansdowne Road debut aged 52 and 201 days . |

Tbh the only reason I have Sky sports is for the wrestling and formerly the Rugby. The father would watch the soccer and Golf on it. We have 2 good tv's and want the best pictrue possible. The 4K soccer is outstanding but the HD sub is extra. from this year all the club rugby will be on BT/Eir and as much as I want to see them €27.50 a month is a lot for 1/2 games a week. Prob try an IPTV for the a trial and see what it's like. Have the Tv connected to the internet through a powerplug and Ethernet cable so get very good speeds.

I have a multi-device IPTV sub and am very happy with it. One sub is on a Vu+ Solo2 box, the other on a fire tv stick. It's something like €100 for the year. It does freeze from time to time but far less than the card sharing did. I only really use it for sports (gaa, rugby and the odd soccer match) as neither of us watches regular tv anymore in general. For the price I pay I'm happy with it anyway but I wouldn't be one who sits down to watch the premiership on a regular basis every weekend either.

It’s a complete no brainer, thankfully I have the app on my tv so don’t need a box, if anyone has a smart tv with an Ethernet cable you’d be mad not to try out IPTV, it has saved me an absolute fortune in the last couple of years. Would hold off on any big outlay on any box or sub until the premier league starts and see if they have done anything to block the matches however. |

Paid 30e for a 6 months subscription at the last minute today, only to be told that they've disabled the web streaming and you need a VPN and a Kodi install to watch it. Spend about 2 hours trying to get my old Kodi box setup to no avail and a window 7 machine too. Ended up watching the match on hesgoals and the quality was superb. ------------- It was far across the sea, When the devil got a hold of me, He wouldn't set me free, So he kept me soul for ransom. na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na.

Hi lads how exactly does this work as I'm rubbish at this kind of stuff. I'm going to get broadband only for the first time into my house but i don't have a landline or phone port to plug? What happens whenever i agree to the one year subscription to iptv.ie do they send out a box to set up or is it all done via your smartphone? Apologies in advance for all the questions as i was going to get the tv & broadband deal together but someone recommended just getting the broadband only and set up the iptv so again i was just wondering how it all worked. Cheers.

Use a smart TV or buy an android box. You download an IPTV player app ,there are dozens on the Playstore and then you add the details of the IPTV subscription you have bought to it. Go to YouTube,type "STB Emulator " into the seach and there are plenty how to videos. STB Emulator is a free app for IPTV,easy to set up and works perfectly. Just takes a bit of research,there's nothing too complicated about setting one up. |

If not, you'll have to buy a box as Rossieman suggested or Amazon firestick, which would be my reccomendation if you don't have a Smart TV (allows you to use NEtflix, YouTube etc on your TV)

Strange question I have a Zgemma box with year sub and it is working perfect any issues and the lad running it resolves it ASAP. But for Eleven Sports it works perfectly up until about 7:30pm and keeps freezing constantly. It comes back to working perfectly about 12:30am. All other channels work perfectly so provider does not know what the issue is as he says channel is working fine.. One of my mates has the same sub and he does not have any issues with the channel so I am wondering is the issue something on my end. So eleven sports goes crazy for about 5 hours a day everyday at about the same time and back working normally at the same time. So it works perfect from 12:30am til 7:30pm then starts freezing constantly for 5 hours and in this period all other channels work fine. Has anyone any idea what the cause may be. Or how to resolve it as most of the good Serie A matches are on at that time Saturday and sunday.

Not sure if this is the right place for this? Have decided to get rid of Virgin Media for TV and broadband. Going to go with either roku/chromecast/android box or a sattelite dish & saorview as don't want to pay a TV subscription any more. Just a few questions : Which is better to go with? How fast does the broadband have to be for the boxes? Who does the best broadband after Virgin? Would like to go with Eir because of the free BT channels but their service and customer relations feedback seems to be horrific online. Any help appreciated,lads. |

Have a look at http://www.onebigswitch.ie" rel="nofollow - www.onebigswitch.ie for a broadband deal with pure telecom. I was with them before and theyre grand. Its through the phone line so youll get the same speed as with eir or any other provider.
If you want completely sub free tv you’ll still need to spend a bit initially. For Saorview you’ll need an aerial. Then a satellite dish for freesat http://www.freesat.co.uk" rel="nofollow - www.freesat.co.uk which is the British free to air channels. Sticking up a dish is very easy, id suggest buying one second hand on done deal or adverts. An old sky dish will do or you can pick them up in power city i think also. Also a ream of coax, again in power city and it comes with the connectors. After that, if youre telly has tuners then happy days, if not pick up a twin receiver sat box. They start cheap and depending on what you need (pause, rewind, recors, store) the price goes up. Probably sounds a bit daunting but actually not a lot to it. Alternatively, just get the Amazon Fire stick and go with an iptv sub for €50/€60 a year or so and get everything.

The only new smart TVs that will pick up official free sat (with guides and recordings) are made by LG. Otherwise you ll need a decoder box. Not to confuse this with free to air. Best decision I've ever made on relation to the house. Saorvire, free Sat and iptv on one device without a single box hooked up to the telly and no monthly bill. ------------- My destination inchicore my next stop being kilmainham Where patriots and super saints are the topics of conversation |

DO NOT GO NEAR EIR!!!! There are no Internet & TV providers with amazing customer service but theirs is downright atrocious and I've involved comreg in my current dispute with them. Saorview and IPTV/Smart STB is the way forward .I have the Smart STB app on my Samsung TV and it is mint. €2-€3 per month for the app and €12 per month for the sub. The sub gives me everything and I'm amazed at the quality. Feel free to PM if you want a number to contact, the interface is brilliant and EVERY channel is on it. The stream from US channels for the prem games is like watching a sky box for quality.

I'd go with an Amazon Firestick the newest Version only launched and can be got for about €50 quid. Then obviously the IPTV sub plenty around and can be got for £50 a year the crowd I'm with. As for Saorview I bought this small little aeriel in Dealz for €1.50 and its perfect https://www.dealz.ie/signalex-digital-indoor-tv-aerial-30-cm" rel="nofollow - https://www.dealz.ie/signalex-digital-indoor-tv-aerial-30-cm I've also got a freeview box for UK Channels Box and Dish can be picked up cheap enough Lidl and Aldi coming into spring sell them and they'll do the Job but If you already have a Sky Dish on the roof that will work too. ------------- I'm the gaffer whatever I say goes. |

If you want a satelitte I'm selling my one, I also have a lad that said he'd install it too. Would do you a good deal on it ------------- Romario 2016: And the ticket mafia gets caught! Well, four years ago I had already told the government. |

Tiviar Alpha Plus is a triple tuner box ,costs around €130. It can receive terrestrial and satellite programs and an IPTV sub can also be added. Can add a 2.5 hard drive to record saorview/sat channels. My mate got one a few weeks back,he reckons its a perfect job.There will be some initial setting up but I dont think its too difficult.He got all the info/guide's from one of the tech sites(can get the info later on). If you have a dish and aerial already you would be set up and running for less than €250. €130 for the box < €50 for HDD €60 for IPTV sub
saorview/sat has 7 day EPG and can record/pause/ etc.I think the IPTV is also 7 day EPG but not sure. |

When did you buy that in Dealz and which Dealz was it? Was in Omni earlier but they haven't stocked them in about a year, I was informed. Hoping to get my hands on one rather than pay Power City €25 for what is effectively the same thing.
