To use TvAnts now you need to download and install Vidalia which is TOR and Privoxy and then when it's running you click on a link or select open TvAnts and select channel. They changed it while ago so now you need a proxy for korea I think it is mostly. Works sweet though, watched two matches today on it in perfect quality.

Or else you won't get a connection to any servers. Which means no channels.

Don't really understand how this works. My folks have sky and sky sports but don't use sky player. They are based in Sligo and I am based in Dublin. Do I need to be a registered customer of sky or how could I capitalise on this ?

Bluesy from what i understand,you will have to hop on to sky.com - go to live player or (skylive.com?)i think all you have to do is enter your customer information (as in familys name,address and account information)then i think you pick a name and a password,save all info,bookmark your tabs and away you go!!i told two mates before the weekend to do this and have had no phonecalls to say it didn`t work
Hope this helps Bud

Thanks for this Knotaclu, will give it a try and see what happens- as long as it doesn't cause the folks any grief, if dad lost his sky sports I could be disowned.

No Worries Bluesy I think you will be safe from the `ould lad,it only accesses the internet to your account,like you were on holidays or away on for work, with your laptop so you can access your sky tv,Will not stop the parents watching it at the same time.If you think about it for a sec, The Internet and TV are seperate entities - one shouldn`t be able to interfere with the other.

Hi knotaclu, set it up ok but the signal keeps stopping and showing that it's buffering up - don't know if that's something with the broadband strength or my settings - any suggestions ?

buffering means you have an internet bandwith problem,in other words you internet is not fast enough to keep up,put it on pause for a few minutes and you should see the progress bar on the bottom build up, let it build up to about 3/4 full then press play

hi guys.
how accurate is the speedtest.pl cause my readings are going from 500kbps to approx 2700kbps off peak of course upload increases with latency readings coming down.
thanks.....

If you are in Ireland here is a good site to use

http://www.irishisptest.com
your speed will go up and down according to the amount of traffic on your server, - some isps allow more connections on there servers then others,but i have thought this site was good here.

knotaclu thanks
having done a little research into this i have come to the conclusion
i have a shite isp who offer a poor modem unable to cope with the speed.
this is where latency comes into play its almost like saying that my water supply is piped to me through a 6 inch pipe then i connect a 1 inch pipe and expect to get the same flow coming from the bigger pipe,that aint goin to happen..i suppose we learn something new everyday (Bandwidth is just one element of what a person perceives as the speed of a network. Latency is another element that contributes to network speed. The term latency refers to any of several kinds of delays typically incurred in processing of network data. A so-called low latency network connection is one that generally experiences small delay times, while a high latency connection generally suffers from long delays.
Latency vs. Bandwidth
Although the theoretical peak bandwidth of a network connection is fixed according to the technology used, the actual bandwidth you will obtain varies over time and is affected by high latencies. Excessive latency creates bottlenecks that prevent data from filling the network pipe, thus decreasing effective bandwidth. The impact of latency on network bandwidth can be temporary (lasting a few seconds) or persistent (constant) depending on the source of the delays.)

Would you care to share that info Hooter :-)
Great thread guys - keep the info coming. Has anyone tried the sky link from the web yet?
Will try it myself this weekend & see how I get on...

Janeymack The skylink will only work if you are a paid subscriber to sky,as you will need your account details to sign up.
as i told a few people last week - if you have sky at home you are good to go, or if you have a relation or friend with sky you will need their details to sign up with instead.
Hooterit is almost impossible to get 100% of your download speed as it is directly linked to the amount of connection allowed by your isp on their servers,if you sign up for say a 6mb broadband,with traffic and latency etc,you will be lucky to reach 3-4mb.when an isp offers you download speeds of say around 6mb this actually means UP TO
you will never reach those speeds, that is only in a perfect world!Isp`s have been taking customers money for years with this scam,and nothing can be done to rectify it because of those simple two words --Up TO

one of my friends got it up and running no worries, two people here last week said thanks so all i can presume is that it works,
there was one other person whose kept "buffering" meaning his internet connection was CRAP and not able to keep up with the flow.
can you not sign up to the link now and watch regular tv for a few minutes? just to check that your broadband can handle it?
I have no way of trying it as i have no sky account and couldn`t be bothered to badger someone for their details. (I prefer not to know anyones details lol)

Hi all, I'm the one who had the buffering problem and have been trying to check this out with my isp. However, have to say it's a great idea and depending on whatever package the sky customer has you can have access to sports, movies etc. Tried to watch something again last night and had no real problem with the buffering, so it seems to be a bit intermittent.

How`re ya Bluesydid that work last week for you? as in with your buffering problem? I think i mentioned that if you paused it for a few minutes it would build up and basically let your computer store a few minutes info ahead of itself,this normally stops the buffering effect. as in your computer will not have to hang around buffering(waiting for the next bit of info to come in so it can play it?) What service are you with Bluesy? i.e. Eircom,BT ? and what should your connection be i.e. 1mb or 3mb connection?
