IPTV question..

Kav28 · 2011-12-07 13:10:35

If you bought an IPTV set top box from http://www.adtvnetwork.com/en/cable, activated the box in the middle east, transfered it back to Europe and plugged it in, would it work? I see pullsat are selling somthing similar http://www.pulsat.com/products/ATN-Arab-TV-Net-IPTV-Set-Top-Box-and-Subscription.html looks like that…

i would say NO, only because of the IP address you will be using it on? I could be wrong though.

Also even if you worked around that unless you are on top package of Magnet Fibre or UPC the Cap in Ireland is too small.

So forget it.

No, nothing to do with Broadcast Satellite or Terrestrial TV.

Also it's really media streaming. Real IPTV is a subscription based service from folks like Magnet and and not on "random broadband", hence this forum
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=40

Doesn't apply. Roku 3 is best value. But all of these are just dedicated versions of what a laptop with HDMI to an HDTV does.

Unless you have 120G Byte or higher cap and faster than 8Mbps at peak time you'll it annoying if someone else in the house is using Broadband.

See what you can get on your laptop/PC FIRST. ANY so called "IPTV" (really Media streaming) box will do LESS internet content. But may be useful to feed an HDTV with your own content or when laptop / PC is in use for something else.
