QuestionIPTV boxes and providers Pin

Ok, so who has what or used what (as in boxes or apps), and which source providers (subscriptions)?

Now that I have moved to Cyprus from Qatar I need to sort out telly viewing options for when the rest of the family arrive. IPTV is something that I have never bothered with or looked into before and having done a few days of research on the net, there are a million pages and youtube videos and it is a minefield.

I did manage to get my UK-Qatar tunnel easily flicked over to UK-Cyprus, so have the AppleTV and Samsung Smart all working fine with iPlayer and the like without any Geolocation issues. They work flawlessly over the adsl connection I have. In fact they work better than I thought they would.

The fastest ADSL connection they could sustain/provide is a 16d/1u, so going to have to get a WISP installed, so already identified who I am planning on using for that. The beauty about my location is that up in the hill with full view over the area, all the WISP providers in the area should have clear line of site. I think I will use the WISP provider for the general internet use/iptv and keep the adsl link for the UK tunnel.

Any info on IPTV appreciated!
