Re: Iplayer not working

We are currently experiencing some technical issues which we're working hard to resolve. We apologise for the disruption in service.

Their download app is also down - keeps telling me new programmes have expired when I try to download them.

Re: Iplayer not working

I can run an HD + two SD streams (iPlayer or Netflix or YouTube) + Xbox gaming + 3 PCs browsing + email + VoIP,  without anything breaking up.  Cool
You just need a decent caching router to drag every last bit of performance out of the connection.   Wink

Re: Iplayer not working

A very pleasant evening has been had via a very capable wireless technology and plusnet using Iplayer. HD wasn't  possible 10 years ago, I never cease to be amazed at what we have available at out finger tips when it works properly.
