what we did I have heard good things about the Roku box. We wanted to be able to access any TV channel on the internet, which I don't think the Roku box does. So here is what we did. We bought an air mouse. We just bought a cheap gyration brand mouse on amazon for less than 30 bucks...

we left We also left Sky Angel. Just not much value there anymore. :( We actually found most of the channels online for free. We have our computer hooked up to our tv. Almost every faith channel is online for free. Then we subscribed to Netflix. Almost every sky angel movie is also...

I didn't pay close attention ( I was doing something else with Fox on) but I know that it buffered between 6-12 times. Not real bad. Not real great.

Thanks for sharing! I'm sure I'll check it out. If I stumble across a gem I will be sure to post.:hatsoff:

Based on what others have posted on this forum I do think Sky Angel does at least know that some servers have gotten bogged down at times. (Election night, etc.) Whether it is Neulion or Sky Angel the bottom line is they might need some more servers. As for our service, now that things have...

I would second that they need some servers in the midwest. Chicago would make sense. Our buffering situation was fixed by changing servers but now we get the 'server busy' message a couple of times a day.

Now that we got ours running how it should, we could not be happier! It was worth going through a little bit of a headache. I've been having some health problems over the last 2 months and have had to rest quite a bit. I could not imagine what I would do without Skyangel. The 48 hour rewind...

good news Well.... I think we got things fixed. I spent an hour and half on the phone with a very helpful man from tech. support. He went over everything, and even stated to us that the problem was not on our end. We live in extreme northern Wisconsin (by Lake Superior) and they had told us...

Please don't blame me for something when the problem isn't on our end! We have way more than enough bandwidth, that is not the problem. But, if you want to make an assumption that we don't or blame us as subscribers, have at it.

bufferfest We had complete bufferfest last night. :( We have plenty of bandwith, and had the computer off. It didn't seem to matter what channel we went to, we couldn't even watch it because the buffering just went on and on. We understand we are dealing with new techinology, and it...

So... if I am getting this straight :confused:.... Angel one Angel two And KTV Are all Public Interest channels that can be gotten for free. But, the question is, do you have to subscribe to anything other than them to get them? I am assuming the dish network box and the dish we used for...

Thanks again. I think I got it now. :eureka That is seriously pretty cool.

O.K. That makes perfect sense now. Thanks for the pictures, that really cleared it up. :up I appreciate all the help. P.S. Does the 4 port switch mean technically you could add 2 extra dishes to the glorystar, or would the box not be able to handle it?

Um..... sorry, not sure what you mean. Can you explain a little bit more please? Thanks. :o

Iceberg - thanks for the answer. If I am understanding you correctly, then I would only need the one glorystar box with a second dish to make this work? I would think the new DVR box would have the same ability.

O.K. Forgive me if this seems like an obvious question, but I am pretty new to this. Question # 1 To keep things simple for my family, could I set up glorystar, and then add a fixed FTA dish and receiver at another satellite to pick up some more channels? I am assuming I would just use a...

I think the question of the cost being too high, depends greatly on where you live and what service is being offered. Where we live, there is no cell phone towers. Every call used to be some form of long distance on the home line. Then about 2 years ago our local co-op came out with a...

we live in such an area We live in such an area and have had DSL for 5 years already. Nearest gas station - 25 miles. Nearest town - 25 miles. No mail delivery where we live.... but yet we have DSL. :D We have a local phone company that is a co-op and have better service then some people I...

Thanks for the info shine.

Shine I'm curious how often the buffering kicks in on a one hour show? How long does it take to recover? We have 1.5 service, but in reality only get about 1.25. We live in such a remote area that this is probably as good as the internet will get for a long time. Thanks

O.K. So basically the dish and box are pretty much worthless at this point. I'm sure ebay will be flooded. How hard is it to set up a FTA system? I set up our sky angel and that was a piece of cake, except that I set it up in the middle of a snowstorm.

O.K. Thanks. I knew it had to be too good to be true. On the bubble between going with glorystar and IPTV. I would like to just get a nice FTA system (not just glorystar channels and maybe add dish family). The wife feels like it would be too much messing around. Not sure how much I trust...

Hello everyone. Just a quick question. We have been using a dish network box 301 to get sky angel. If we just aimed the small dish at a different satelite (such as Galaxy 25) could we use this box to pick up some FTA channels? Or would we need a different box? If this is possible, what would...

Catkoko- If I remember right I had seen the number that at one time, they were at 110,000 subscribers but that had dropped quite a bit when the 7th Day Channels went to their own iptv. I'm not sure if the rep. on the phone had the actual number right (5,000) or if he had a limited amount of...

we called When we heard that some had received an e-mail and we had not, we called them before they closed tonight. The rep said they had 5,000 people signed up at this time. The first batch of boxes was shipped out last week, the next group will be soon! :up
