Streaming RWC games - Issues/Problems/Solutions

Watched Stan sport on iptv in glorious 4k. Did get buffering here and there, will connect an ethernet cable for this weekend to see if it makes a difference.
R190 for 2 months, included is movies like Barbie, Oppenheimer, MI7, John Wick4
 
Just use Greece.

Start the stream and once you are streaming disconnect the vpn to get the stream direct from Akamai locally so it doesn't buffer. Works for every game for me.
Greece worked for me as well again.
The stream was iffy pre game but fine during. They did lose the feed entirely during the game for 2 mins but that was most likely a satellite issue.

Where did you sign up ?
 
How is it going today with SABC?

For my part, ended up signing up for DSTV stream for 2 months. Can't complain - it's faultless - and enjoy also watching on phone (while on bog) without needing to jump through hoops!
Each to their own. But I'd rather jump through a few hoops than part with my hard earned money to an overpriced monopoly. I watch for free seamlessly and can also view on my phone. and also on the bog. :ROFL: Anyway, enjoy the rugby.
 
Don't know exactly, wife got it from someone on Telegram. Does not seem they have a website. Think reference was IPTVSA, but don't know if that is their real name.
Your Google skills suck. Highlight the word IPTVSA in my or your post and choose search. ;) :ROFL:
 
This works very well. Not bad for the price. Waited 1h32 for the login details by email.

Thank you
Now we must just get a stream for the rugby that does not buffer. I always said on MBB that everywhere I read iptv buffers.
There is so many to choose from, don't know were to start. Although I might compromise with some buffering to watch Stan sport in 4k.

One of the links i used last Sunday had IPTV1 in the top right hand corner. No buffering.
 
Hi Guys
Any good local IPTV service that you can recommend to the WC Rugby? The free streaming site that I used seems to be off.
Thanks

Does it have to be local? Apart from SABC, RugbyPass and ITV seem to be the go to options
 
Yes would prefer local but I'll check out RugbyPass and ITV, thanks.

Hello. Can I please enquire if the ethernet cable made any difference in the buffering? TIA

Sorry haven't connected one yet. I suspect its not the internet but the service, but most games we watched was great, the 4k channel however always buffer.

Server location can be an issue, servers closer are going to be better, servers on a solid overeas cable are also better. Local servers are best.
 
As suggested by a previous forumite - I activate my vpn to a foreign location, start the stream on Rugbypass tv, go out an de activate the vpn, back into rugbypass. works a charm and no buffering. Plus good quality display.
