Hi Shirley

The main criterias here is 1) Download speed and 2) make sure unlimited downloads

If you can let me know your download speed I can help you a little further.

If you are not sure, then connect a device to the wifi (albeit this will be slower than a cable connection to your router) then goto www.speedtest.net and follow the simple instructions.

Please note, if you are wanting catch up then ITV and BBC will not allow you if you are outside the UK. In this case you will also need a VPN (Virtual Private Network)

One step at a time for now... let me know your download speed. Anything less than 10MB and you are likely to encounter some issues, mainly annoyances like buffering.

Hope it helps

Hi Shirley

Be aware there are cowboys here as anywhere you need to start with at least 6MBS to get pictures from most IPTV if they work on less the picture quality is compromised. This is an example of what is available from us we have been here 15 plus years, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7KdYmP2z6fYnVEIgYT79AA/videos should you want to see it live we are in La Florida 03189. We recommended by this site look on the right hand column you will see are 2 adds from our company
