Hi
Does anyone use these guys and if so what package - they seem to have a budget offer, an essential offer and an extreme (fastest) offer. i would intend watching IPTV so need to understand what the quality of viewing is like. I don't think i could justify the fastest speed so am interested in the essential pack which seems to offer speeds up to 10Mbs.

I am on what will become their essential package. I have an Android box feeding a dumb TV.
There is little to no buffering, the picture quality is just adequate. Some streams (usually sport) are not what I consider watchable.
Using the iplayer on my laptop with a smartdns the picture is adequate and is just that when connected to the TV via HDMI.
Same comment re buffering.
Out of the up to 10Mb possible I get just less than 8 more often than not.
This is in a campo house high above El Morche clear for about 300 degrees. so no line of sight problems.
I, regretably, also have an apartment in Frigiliana but it's a penthouse at the end of the village just by the new roundabout at the bottom of the Torrox road. There I have Nerja Solutions PAYG. This is up to 3mb, I get about 2. I have not tried it for IPTV.
A neighbour here for six months, tried the BB4S route and couldn't have it as there was a line of sight issue. He is on the ground floor on the front of the block but facing open countryside.
'Dave' who I think you know from another forum uses Moviestar and gets good results, but he is in the depths of the old town.
