Freezing and buffering is usually caused by wi-fi drop out. Your wi-fi connection is lost due to poor connection or interference so your device uses up the data stored in it's buffer. The screen will freeze or the video will buffer until you reconnect to the stream.

With regards to the screen notification in Russian, those sources are 2 connections only. If 2 people are already using that link you won't be able to access it. I'll start marking those sources from now on.

I'll continue with the website as many users don't have issues but obviously the choice is yours as to whether you continue to use it yourselves.
Thanks for clarifying, I have had buffering issues for the last few matches that were on BT. Conversely, both the Joshua and Fury fights streamed perfectly onto my TV.

My internet setup is sky fibre who when we upgraded this year gave us signal booster boxes for each room we watch TV in. The PC is literally 2 feet away from the box, so I would be surprised if there is any drop out these days.

Will tune in for the Ashes this week and play it by ear. Don't mean to sound like a whinging old git, but I think there needs to be some feedback. It's a very good website overall.

BTW OB, Cricket Schmicket produced two of the most iconic sporting moments in the last 50 years in 2019. Both the ODI World Cup final that went to a super over, and Ben Stokes epic one-man crusade to turn the Aussies over at Headingly was legendary. I would put the World Cup final up there with Anfield 89, it was pure theatre. Try watching, you might get hooked. :barscarf: :barscarf:

I was only joking mate! :D :wink:


I enjoy watching the 20/20's mostly, but enjoy the Internationals live - a colleague from work who is a total cricket fanatic converted me (He is from Bangladesh and one mean bowler himself) so we go to live matches whenever we can and he explains the rules, I do enjoy the atmosphere and a summer day/evening with sandwiches and beer! :D . I always enjoy it when Ingerland can beat the Aussies which sadly isn't that often.

Love India - Their players (for me) especially the bowlers are on another level.

I know you were pulling my leg. Cricket can be a very messy day out, I was at Lords last summer in £100+ seats. Everyone was pissed as a fart playing drinking games. One Indian chap, didn't have a pint to neck in one. So he picked up a wine bottle and did it. Quite a sight you don't expect to see at the home of cricket!

Feedback of any kind is always welcome, I've said that before.

Never underestimate wifi interference no matter how close devices are to your router. I get buffering whenever my wife uses her hairdryer upstairs or my daughter uses the microwave in the kitchen! :lol:

Also routers have many wifi channels and are shipped all using the same frequency. You can get clashes from your neighbour's routers if they share the same band. Changing frequency in the router settings can help with that.

Unplugging your router for a couple of minutes is good practice. This flushes the DNS cache and will help with all devices not just those used for streaming. A good habit to get into on a regular basis. Particularly leading upto a game.

Changing your DNS from default to one's like Google DNS or OpenDNS to loosen up your ISP's restrictions is also a good idea. It's the very first thing I do whenever I change my ISP.

These are all very simple tasks anyone can do and I recommend to everyone regardless of what they use the internet for.

I'm always willing to help and advise however and whenever I can. I may not be on here anymore but people can always email me or join the WhatsApp group. :D

A bit of feedback for the site. For me I can't see BT1 going into the sports tab, but when I used the ashes link and clicked into BT all ok.

Fingers crossed for the Ashes, come on England!

Nice one, thank you. :cheers:

The first part of the Wenger video is all about the French Fraud but the second half is more interesting imo.

One thing I wasn't aware of was the fact that we only arrived for the CL final 15 minutes before kick off and uefa refused to delay the start. Roads were closed so Barcelona could get to the ground and we were left to fend for ourselves in the traffic!

I got to the CL final an hour plus before, it took nearly 45 mins to get in. There was a fence ringed all the way round the stadium where they were checking tickets, creating huge bottle necks. They totally lost control, people were getting crushed and could have been hurt.

But yes, the Wenger video should be a good watch, and thanks again. Will be good to watch Norwich away given it's not on sky/BT.
