I plugged back in to the router and found the DNS has gone back to the default Slingshot one. I guess now that perhaps Iplayer was working for me due to their Global mode.

So, I changed the DNS again and it seems to be all working bar C5 catchup. Its not telling me it cant play but i just get the swirly circle and thee prograam doesnt play. Ill send Unblock US a query about that.

I don't they support C5, I have had C5 working in the past and their servers are that slow its unwatchable so I wouldn't worry about it.

Is anyone using Netflix to watch the BBC and the like ?

I'm going to start bringing Now TV boxes in from the UK, getting NZ plugs for the boxes and doing the install at people's house. I'm also thinking about selling the boxes on themselves with instructions on how to get it working in NZ and have full access to BBC, ITV etc on their TVs without messing about with computers, cables etc.

Does anyone think it's a good idea?

Hola - a Chrome extension.

Clearly I would be in favour of something like that at the moment.

I've read warnings on here about using Hola Ozzidoc.

All we wish to do is avail ourselves of some decent viewing when we fancy it.

I had been using mediahint for when we wanted to watch something on UK TV but that seems to have stopped working for me.

[Dragons Den]How much would they retail for and does it work in HD?[/Den]

Maybe around $150 for a box, HDMI Cable, remote and NZ plug (one of those black adaptor plugs) and they're only in SD.

What kind of warnings please? Thanks

Found the thread HERE. It links to the first one also.

I'll second that! I had no idea about those security issues

TBH . I'm new to this lark and don't quite understand but am happy to heed the precaution.
