Ive been using PebbleBee - https://pebblebee.com/ Worked fine for all over the world and as only need Google Find now days it works almost universally. Worked in multiple airports and such so cant complain about them. Got the jetsettle bundle and no failed and hardly need charged. Other bonus...

100m is the max ethernet can be ran realistically without any issues.

Time to buy!! Its up and down right now, but its all fine.

Is it Openreach or CityFibre? As if cityfibre you wont find it on OR website, they have 0 control over it, so its even better.

Sounds like city fibre. My place can get 2.5GB for 40 pm. Virgin is getting kicked soon as that contract is out.

Most common is XC actually. However plenty out there, many subs dont give the URL/DNS out so if they dont, let me know ill sort you out to get a normal app like tivimate or such etc.

Love sharepoint. It's a bloody good tool if you use it right.

Amazon stick thread should serve you well....

Im sure if you read the firestick thread, you would find plenty.....

LastPass? Dear me, no one remember 2022? Its effects are still ongoing today https://www.techradar.com/pro/security/lastpass-hacked-users-see-millions-of-dollars-of-funds-stolen

I use roboform. Family pack, the parents and brother use it too now. Live saver really.

No idea who supplier is, but im sure will be fine. Plenty out there.

Excellent. Fibre and bin off traditional services. They will soon get the message that overcharging customers is poor business practices. Plenty of other alternatives out there.

Yeah have one, when doing office up (this month) ill put it in the wall see if its useful or not.

I have a similar setup. But the controller is mad good, allows cloud management for free technically. Handy for all my customers too.

However many services dont give out dns. But always ways around it shall we say. ;) If anyone needed help on that....

Mag boxes are rather old these days and not able to vpn on top many of them, so if you get blocked, you are blocked. Id get an android box myself and run it via that, means you can run vpn and supported apps if you feel the need.

Just load this box with the right applications (although this looks mag box like) and will be absolutely fine for general use.

Usual but jeezo that price is heafty at the start. Depends what box it is? If its a formuler id say yes do it. but if not, nope. Doesnt need to be a Firestick can use any android you wish (can go cheaper and have good results too) Depends on service, most have SD, HD and FHD, "4k" streams...

Got a plethora of different devices, favourites are the google ones and the formuler boxes for sure. Integrates into plex and jellyfin nicely too.

New regulations by HMRC in Jan 2026 will be very interesting. Guarantee plenty get caught out by not declaring they moved fiat to crypto. Or crypto to crypto is now classed as a disposal.

What is the distances like? Remember don't put it at the "extreme" side. Put it closer and you will project more signal outwards then.

Had it on the back burner and seems absolutely fine usage wise in the tablet.

Considering id is on three. Talk mobile is on voda. I would certainly rather have voda. But o2 looks best for your area if you need a call in the house.

Make sure you press back back exit, depends on which app it is. But yes that will solve the issue.

Eh what app? XC? Smarters? Are you exiting the app properly? As if you dont, it gets to 24 hours and requests epg. Really should be exiting the app properly so it does it when you launch it.

Send some pics via DM of it and ill explain it out to check. If its purple then you have plenty of options to try.

Im just saying, all these apps are just rebranded apps. Most of them are xciptv or smarters. Some are IBO and very rarely Purple Playlist Player. Only good part on purple is, if they have a legit app not cracked/rebranded, they can be used on phones and tablets like iOS. ;) . Expensive but...

Can be a whole lot of stuff, swapped the player? swapped the buffer time? Depends what app too? Presume its XC or a Smarters?

Will be interesting when the new low end amazon devices appear with linux. May really move people to proper android boxes again. Hurrah. PS dont worry, still supported for 5 years by amazon.
