I can´t get Filmon to work, can anyone help me, thank you x
Hi,
I am living in Costa Del Silencio and can get good internet from the Alborada Beach Club but Filmon freezes from time to time and a lot more in the evenings, although my internet speed is still fast at the time it starts freezing up. Facebook and Youtube are fine, no problem at all. Has anyone got an alternative? I am getting very frustrated!! A friend in Las Galletas has a landline and uses British TV Anywhere | Watch UK TV Abroad but I am not sure how to set this thing up, so I am looking for something that I can just click and use, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

The link you have on the message is aVPN or DNS service. You dont need this for Filmon, you only need a VPN or DNS if you want to use the various Iplayers
You will need a lot more speed for any online TV than for Facebook or Youtube
I use Filmon and sometimes it does stall in the evening particularly on popular programmes.
I put this down to the demand on Filmon's systems
You could try the link below It connects to Filmon but through a different company
Camposat.Tv

I think you are probably right.
I have heard so many bad reports about Filmon reception from people with fast Internet connections that it does seem that the problem is with Filmon especially bearing in mind that their picture quality is pretty poor which means it does not need a fast connection.
Other access options might seem better but they all end up trying to access the same servers.

Use it most nights and seldom have a problem, been watching BBC2 and now 1 all evening. Could do with higher sound levels at times.
Suggest you keep Flash player at latest release levels and I use Firefox maybe that is better that IE.

Thank you for the advice. I have setup the British TV Anywhere finally because last night was the final straw with Filmon, it has been driving me crazy! I spoke to a guy called Simon from the company and he was brill, got me set up and it wasnt as hard as I first thought. The picture quality on BBC Iplayer is amazing compared to Filmon but the big test will be tonight, so please keep your fingers crossed and I will let you know how I get on x
