We live in a rural area near Albox & currently have internet & basic UK TV channels through Albox Online but are looking to change to satellite internet (through the UNICO Rural Demand Program if we're eligible or possibly Starlink) as the internet is too slow & the TV buffers a lot. Once we get faster internet what is the best option for IPTV including UK sports channels etc.

For IPTV, use Revolution Tv, they have a place in La Alfoquia. Been with them for 8 years. We get everything we want to watch.

Hi. We live up in the mountains near Lubrin and had the same problems. We switched to Starlink and it is way better, fast pretty reliable, occasional buffering on busy channels but pretty good. I would avoid IPTV and contact Revolution TV in Zurgena, get TV Glass, you will need a Fire Stick but the quality is superb, much better than the IPTV we had at first. Good friendly service and not expensive.

Starlink can be bought direct or Gary on 6201981162 (wattsapp) who can supply and fit it. He is brilliant, has done it for us and our neighbours, highly recommended.

Thanks, if you don't mind me asking, how does TV Glass compare price wise to IPTV & does it include any premium channels, UK sports channels in particular.

Cheers, Tim

Sky glass is an IPTV service that is using a re-branded version of the IPTV smarter's player or XCIPTV player….

Revolution tv, great service, but Glass is iptv

Hi. I got two systems for 160e. Pa. There is a set up fee, which is about 30e. Yes it has pretty much every sports channel going both British and Irish plus some others. All the Sky Sports channels. RTE Eurosport etc also thousands of movies and UK and US series.
