Performance wise you shouldn't notice a difference as they all use the same infrastructure. The one area were they are different is customer service. I'd recommend Plusnet right now. I'm with BT and happy enough.

Scrummie, this may be over-simplistic for I'm not a computer whizz, but get yourself Fibre, hard to go wrong then no matter who you are with, go for the best deal, though here, a word to the wise, I left Talk talk because their fibre would allow a maximum of 4 internet devices, think we have about 16 in the house at present that are used, several other potential ones. :roll:

I have plusnet fibre & no real complaints.

Ahem...................... I've also got a wee android box with which I steal people's hard working talent on occasions - when I can be bothered, it's a pain in the bum finding "free"/stolen streams, not just as simple as a sky bax. Regret buying it, too feckin' messy for my taste.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Only 4 devices? That sounds like a bullshit marketing ploy to get you to pay more money.

Input your phone number there and see what it says.

Baggy they work but like you say its no Sky box.

Does it give you the ability to record a particular time slot/game?
Living in NZ so NH rugby can be on at tricky times. Nothing worse than a 2.30pm Sunday kickoff, meaning I have to avoid the internet and co workers all Monday in the hope that Rooster vision was super swift and allows me a Monday night you tub event.

No it doesn't but you can request items to be placed on the video on demand section. At the minute there's all tjr Six Nations games there. I've asked for Super Rugby. It starts soon so I'll see if they do.

How soon after the broadcast would a six nations game be likely to appear?

Has no-one else this problem with Cricfree?

Cricfree is working well, but now VIPLeague is blocked. On choosing any rugby match it goes to a blank page 't.mdn2015x1.com'. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a workaround?

Interesting Setanta as Cricfree was blocked for me last night as well as VIPLeague hence I found that other one, now it is blocked today and Cricfree is working :scratch:

I'm heading to Asia in the new year for a while but don't want to miss Ulster's imperious and inevitable march to victory in the SDC and Pro Dozen. Will any of the suggestions here work?
