Can i ask what dns service are you using ? As i find that star sports stays at the lowest quality throughout the entire match using the unotelly dns server thing, btw Im using a laptop connected to a TV via HDMI.

im finding my quality is sticking to the lowest bitrate. watching replay's its watchable but live games, its a totally different outcome.

Yes the few people ive spoken to and myself have had issues with poor picture quality and unreliability normally due to poor vpn servers or dns servers coming out of India not a big deal as its only £5

When youre in MENA the service seems just fine in my experience. My guess would be that its all to do with their content delivery services and the peering out of territory.

Which, if peering was an issue or the way in which their CDN was setup, could be attributed by the large number of additional "out of territory" connections being made during the times games are on.

When I'm in Dubai, ive found that the streams are pretty robust, even on hotel wifi but returning to the UK and I get the same quality issues as many others.

I think your right i actually think this is an issue with smart dns servers well it is for me anyway ive just tested my ios app using dns and using a vpn.

Channel 11HD refuses to start while using dns but plays straight away using a vpn i think that says alot

I have no real knowledge of the technical side of CDN's etc but I can also confirm that a friend of mine recently moved to Dubai because he has family over there and he too can confirm that the service streams pretty perfectly for him - his only gripe being the times when they've blocked online access completely but this is a Premier League issue rather than a beIN one. He claims not to have experienced anything like what the rest of us experience when viewing outside the designated territory via DNS/VPN.

I can only speak from my own experience and im sure most of my issues are down to using dns servers for some reason they dont seem to like my connection, sadly beinsports is not the only service i have a problem with its not due to lack of bandwidth its something else.
I can not put my finger on where the problems lie but I think im going to stop using them and stick to a reliable vpn from now on ans see if it makes a difference.

Hi guys,

this thread sums up my issue at the moment. could do with some help/advice please

Basically I have a Gbox Mx2 android box, have XBMC gotham 13.2 installed.

I have gone through all the processes of installing P2P streams, Istream, Navi x etc etc

but im now getting so frustrated with the constant chopping of the HD streams, and the SD streams quality is downright terrible

Im now looking at installing a VPN (if possible) and getting some form of paid subscription to the premier league via a foreign subscription (Bein or Prem leage pass etc)

My broadband speed averages around the 15mb speed, and I use a wired connection when streaming.

There are so many different VPNs and streaming guides that im getting lost in it all.

Has anyone successfully done this on a Gbox yet?

it does indeed or a dns service like unotelly all of the services you have mentioned will need one or the other
