At the time you got 3 months free subscription with Sky ( I don't know if that still applies ) You have to open a Sky account but you don't pay anything until after 3 months, I closed the account when the fre...

I have somebody that is interested in buying my house.. The estate agent who has my house for sale is trying to get him to put a deposit down ASAP. I would imagine that my potential buyer will have a survey done on the house. As far as we know everything is ok with the house as it was newly built 18...

ITV HUB +
I have ITV hub on my Firestick and my Now TV box, my VPN is on my router.
I'm fed up of the adverts on ITV Hub so I'm thinking about paying £39.99 per year to be able to run ITV hub on all my devices advert free,
Has anybody don't this and does it work ok in Spain..?
Thanks

Re: Speed loss with a VPN router
Thanks Enrique.. Originally I wanted to go down the DNS route but I'm not capable of installing it onto the router myself, I contact a couple of computer shops where I live to see if I could pay somebody to do it for me and they didn't know what I was talking about, that's why I thought a VPN router...

Re: Speed loss with a VPN router
The VPN router to the main router is connected on the VPN " POE in on" ( this is the connection Liberty Shield told me to use ) this is connected to " Lan" on the main router... Hope this makes sense ?
The speed test I use is Ookla.

Speed loss with a VPN router
Can anybody tell me what they think is an acceptable loss of speed when using a VPN router connected to my main router.
I have fiber, my speed without the VPN router connected is approx 200mb with the VPN router connected approx. 28mb, can anybody tell me if this is normal?
Thanks in advance

Re: Intelsat 907 / Satback Update - Major News!!!
Are we now safe to presume that the new Intelsat satellite will carry on working at least for the time being anyway ? I need to buy a new receiver but I've put off doing it until I was sure the reception wasn't going to disappear. Does anybody know if its possible to get a receiver that will also re...

Re: Firestick advice
If I changed my Amazon es account to Amazon UK and paid the extra subscription , would I still get free delivery in Spain and would I get Prime Video or would I have to pay extra again for that on top of my normal subscription ? Thanks

Re: Firestick advice
If I get a friend to buy a Firestick for me in the UK and set it up on their UK account then sign out before they post it to me in Spain, presumably once I sign in again with my Spanish prime account even using a VPN router all the UK apps will either not work or disappear ? I cant see any way I can...
