They all have limits or some sort of traffic management. even your beloved Talk Talk.

the fibre service the ISp I am using have got have limits on how much people can download in peak times, unlimited off peak but that is going backwards. So why would I want to do that?

I use the same ISP as you do Noise, but not the LLU would love to be as I currently pay £1 a month more for my package than the cheapest LLU package is, Im on Home 30

Has anyone tried using Netflix on their smart phone via 3G on the O2 network?

Anyone got netflix on their Samsung TV yet?

My set is an Samsung LE46C750 3D set but cant get netflix. lovefilm is there though.

Expensive!, I pay Sky £10 a month for an unlimited 18MB (upto 20MB) service.

Yeah it works fine

ITA, given the low pricing I definately thinks its worth it, I've also signed up for the £4.99 streaming only package from LoveFilm too so I have best of both worlds for £11. Although I have to say that looking at LoveFilm's streaming only content, its pretty small at the moment and while they have some newer movies, overall I think the Netflix content is way more appealing .. I guessboth will improve as the new deals kick in and content goes live.

The D8000 series definately got it today (based on posts and twitter comments) but I think its possibly only D7000 and D8000 series at the moment. Annoyingly SamsungUK on twitter stated yesterday the app was available for D Series, models 6000 and above, but then news stories today reporting release of app state just D7000 and D8000 series at the moment. I have the D6100 and tried this evening and no update, pretty furious really. The D6100 was one of they main componets of their 2011 Smart TV range. At a min they should have the app ready for all last years Smart TV models.

I expect at that price you are either on a LLU stand alone package or have it tied in with a Sky Tv sub and Phone package. So its not comparable price wise with mine
Also I would never ever give Sky anymore of my hard earned, no matter how cheap they could do BB for!

Mine is a standalone supplier as I'm restricted to the choice I have where I live, and for the money its been a flawless service for the 2 years I've been with them

I've just gone from 30mb to 50mb on VM as they have less traffic management on this one so Netflix will run as best as it can.

Yeah it's LLU and £12.50 for non-sky customers and £10 for Sky customers. I used to be with Zen which was a great company but to expensive for my data needs £35.74 / month and that's with a 100GB cap.

In playing back 10 episodes of Breaking Bad at approx 50 mins each I will have used about 18GBs just with Netflix over a few days.

Thanks ever so much for the the update.

I guess I will have to wait and hope as its still not availabe on my set.

So you can't answer my question then? Talk talk are supposed to limit P2P peak times but I've never noticed any. You said before that the fibre ISP's will cap you, slow you down and to be honest you had no evidence then neither do you now.

Point out any ISP that has said that they will provide fibre broadband then cap you and slow you down.

As for Talk Talk, they are not my 'beloved' they just happen to be the ISP I use that has provided me (and friends and family) with a consistently good service and I would praise any ISP I used that did the same.

FYI my lad and I download never less than 300GB a month and sometimes far higher without problems.

Roku Follows Netflix to Launch TV Streaming Hardware in UK

i used to be on ADSL24 entanet service a while back 2008 I think.was not with them long as i was a fool and went with BT for their BT broadband anywhere service.

The entanet service was good for what I wanted at the time, then it was changed after i left and I did not think it was good value then. When i decided to drop Bt and go else where I was advised to go onto the Cable and wireless network after I found it was here and after having such good service from ADSL24 before decided to use them again even if it was a few pence more expensive than some other c&W resellers.

i am glad i made the move, no limits and no silly traffic management and no profiling or line management. Fantastic for video services like Netflix.

Bt was suppose to have been unlimited, but it was not, suppose to be proper unlimited now so they say, but their traffic management was a pain, they even slowed things down that should not have been slowed down. Even you tube was unusable sometimes and BBC Iplayer, well forget it.

If I was still with Bt then trying out Netflix would be impossible

ADSL24 now have a all in one phone and broadband service which is cheaper than what I am paying, but it is too close to Talk Talk for me, anyway I am happy with what I got most of the time.

Why do you want to? for a start the amount of data it would use would cost a fortune if you was not careful and why would you want to watch it on a tiny screen that is on a smart phone?

Just signed up via my PS3, first impressions are very good. There are quite a few movies and docs that i have not viewd (which i plan on doing so). Still undecided on if i would sign upto a 12 month contract though. Will have to see what new content they add over time.

Well if it was via giffgaff it would cost nothing and watching on a small screen isn't so bad when you hold it close.

Giff Gaff use the O2 network, £10 a month for unlimited texts and downloads plus 250 minutes to any network calls and the picture is fine on a good phone like the S2.

I watch netflix on my iPhone at work, and its perfectly watchable and doesn't intrude on my desk space as much as the iPad does, which I use at lunchtimes

All done on wifi though

Yes, within a few days I'm addicted

I thought I did answer your question, i pointed out at least the limits that are on the fibre service that the ISP i use have and no doubt a lot of smaller ISPs have the same limits.

Plusnet which is one of the larger ISps also got limits, from 40GB to 120Gb a month depending how much you pay.

Bt offer so called unlimited, but use traffic management, and so do Talk Talk

At the moment there are very few providers of fibre



any that got traffic management will do it, Plusnet being the worse.



Maybe, My Isp offers me a service, and they offer me a service that is reliable, sure speed is not great but no ISp is going to give me fast speed, you can chge the way ADSL works.

Tell a lie one ISp could give me a faster speed, a local one, but they use wireless technology, which to be honest I am looking into.

i know someone who is getting it installed in a couple of weeks time so I will have a look at what it is like and then look at costs.

If anyone ask me what ISp I am using, I will tell them and tell them what it does for me, but I don't go around as if I got shares in the company and try and convince people that it is the best company around


That is nice for you, see what it is like when you get fibre and Talk Talk realises that it is costing them to much as they will then be back using BT network. the reason they can make broadband cheap and unlimited is because they use their own network, et of their own network and onto Bt network, it could be different.

Try using around 600Gb or more a month and see if Talk Talk will complain about that, i myself don't but I know someone who does on the Cable and wireless network and never had a problem.


Anyway, getting back onto topic, well kind off, we still need decent broadband in this country at a decent price for people to make use of services like Netflix to their full.

There was at least two questions on Samsung's twitter page regarding the D5000 series and Netflix (one by me and another question by someone else) and Samsung haven't replied to either yet

Does netflix work on Samsung BD-C5900 3D bluray Player?

I got one at another house but will only pick it up if it works.

Edit

If not is there any region free firmware available for BD or TV?

Fortunately you do not have to sign up for 12 months with Netflix. After the first month (which is free) you are charged £5.99 per month and can cancel at any time. They do not refund you for part of a month (so if you cancel on day 2 of a month after the trial you still pay £5.99) but you never have to pay more than one month at a time. I reckon that is great value!

They said in a press release they'd be updating their Blu-ray players 'in the coming months'.
