Hi, for years I’ve tried various options to get trustworthy British TV and access to films, sport, box sets etc. Currently I have an aptoide box using various apps, where buffering is a continual issue, as well as a set up that uses Astra satellite, through a central complex setup, which I get a few channels on.

I use Avatel 200mbs for my broadband on a on/off basis, which seems ok.

What I’m looking for is something that I can trust works, providing sport/ films/ box sets/ and TV channels.

I don’t want a satellite dish as I haven’t really got anywhere to put it.

Any recommendations. I live just off the N332 in Los Altos

Thanks

WE got SAT TV but end up watching stuff on YouTube. Plenty to choose from, I like the Italian Zee Zee 😀😀

If your TV can take a USB then get a Firestick and get one of the prepaid apps with all the channels. Not legit but for £100 per year you haven't much to lose if it gets turned off. You can bring the Firestick with you from UK.  Ask around in the UK. Don't get the App in Spain in any of the markets as people have reported problems with not getting a service after paying their money.

Had Sattvplus,now Avatel.

No buffering.

There is a Netflix type feature,with many films,box sets,documentaries etc.

Installed nine years ago,then 300€,will be cheaper now I think?

Annoyingly for my husband after three years he lost the majority of the major sports channels.

Company said there was  no chance of getting them back.

Other than that,we have no problems with tv or wifi.
