| 417214 | 2006-01-01 23:28:00 | This afternoon I was hoping to watch a wee bit of the ASB Classic on the internet via the TVNZ website: www.tvnz.co.nz as they are offering LIVE Tennis Streaming. When I click on the "Click here for Tennis Streaming" link on the above page I get this message: This stream restricted to the in NZ If viewing from inside NZ, Please Contact your ISP I am in NZ you stupid website!!! :groan: :mad: I bet that video stream does not either A. like the 222.153.xxx.xxx ip address range! Or B. as xtra / Telecom does not like Peering with a few places.... Has any one else had this problem? Note: As I am Not the account holder I cant contact Xtra, my parents are (& am 21 & not a 13 year old.) |

| 417220 | 2006-01-02 06:39:00 | B. as xtra / Telecom does not like Peering with a few places.... Not "Peering with a few places", they don't do free peering with anyone - that's the difference. The streaming is provided by R2 (www.r2.co.nz) who only support access from peered providers so it doesn't cost them a fortune in content provision - particularly when they do it for free. Perhaps moving to an ISP that doesn't suck would be a good option. Note: As I am Not the account holder I cant contact Xtra, my parents are (& am 21 & not a 13 year old.) :lol: :lol: :lol: |

Chances are they won't say anything as their first few tiers of support won't anywhere near understanding the issues involved . Last time this topic came up they blamed software, and the streaming provider . Is there something wrong with your TV . :lol: :lol: Want to watch two channels at once . Buy a TV with picture in picture (or see previous suggestion about isp's and sucking) |

| 417223 | 2006-01-02 08:03:00 | Question for you ninja, back when the elections where on TV3 used the same streaming provider as TVNZ is using today & I could access the feed fine, wants the different here? Is that TV3 where paying them & TVNZ are not? | stu161204 (123) | ||
