is going with unotelly DNS still the best option?

i have a 10mb connection - will unotelly slow me down and prevent me from watching 1080p?

Well that's the beauty of a DNS solution like Unotelly. No slow down. Just be sure to use the Ireland server. The JHB and CPT servers have issues sometimes.

I use the JHB and CPT servers. CPT as my primary. How does one know when issues are server related?

does using hola significantly slow things down?

The biggest problem with hola is that it only works in browsers. So if you watch on a media player or smart tv app it is useless.

You just setup Unotelly on your router and that's it. Log in into the Netflix app on your Roku or WD TV Live after that.

Im running MXlinux xbmc on my DroidTV dual core ATV400 device, in process of getting 4mb line installed cross fingers.

What are my best options to get some sort of streaming service setup?

Unotelly + netflix +NTV(if you like sport).
