There are plenty of contributors to the forums on Fuerteventura and Tenerife who are not customers and question the legality & ethics of subscription IPTV services. No doubt the debate will continue in the local forums.

There's a lot of chat on the local forums about a Zurich based IPTV subscription service called ZKTV and it's not all favourable.

Just a quick follow up. The iPlayer app on my Sony Blu Ray player only allows catchup, you can't view live streams.

You connect the secondary router to your Telefonica router via an ethernet cable. I'm not 100% certain, but for VPN configuration, the secondary router might need DD-WRT firmware installed. I've connected our smart Sony Blu Ray player by this method. Eye On Demand is a useful blog about Smart...

Are you trying to access UK TV from Fuerteventura? If so, a secondary router which is VPN or Smart DNS enabled should do the trick.

I can receive all 2G Europe beams in Fuerteventura with a 1.2 metre dish.

According to Advanced Television website, Astra 2E is to be launched is September: _advanced-television.com/2013/07/26/ses-steady-as-she-goes/ "He added that three new satellites are waiting to be launched, and unfortunately each of them is now launching later than planned. This will cost...

I'm using an iPlayer enabled Sony Blu-Ray player. The iPlayer is catch up only but the picture quality is stunning.

I have all channels back this morning. Apparently there were similar reception problems in the UK last night with Eurobird.

I can now receive Sky Arts 2 plus all the other channels on 12070H 2B North in Fuerteventura. We have never been able to receive 2B North beams before. One of them is 4Music. Is that owned by Channel 4?

11.934 V and 11.778 V are ok. 12.480 V says "No Signal Found". We can receive the ITV regions.

All the ones on 12.480v

We have just lost Channel 4 and 4+1 in Fuerteventura, Canary Islands on 12480V. The Digibox is displaying the message “No satellite signal is being received”. It’s not just us, several other people in Fuerteventura are reporting the same problem. Is this happening anywhere else?
