Smart TV with built in Freesat

Hi everyone,

I am back and forth to Spain and have been for 9 years. I have a 2m dish and receive brilliant TV with no end of channels via a small Bush Freesat box. I am happy.

I only have a land line but when I make my move to Spain full time will organise broadband etc. Which wont be much longer - yippeeee..............

I will be driving over in a couple of weeks and want to bring with me an all singin all dancing Smart TV with built in Freesat - with the facility of Skype, Wi-Fi etc. I would also like the 'catch up' facility up and running although for the time being - not that important.

Can anyone forsee any problems that I might encounter - although obviously I dont have a router at the mo but I am thinking of organising a PAYG router - although I have to say the Wi-Fi on the TV isn't a major issue to me at present - same as not using a laptop or tablet in my house - as I have a few friends that never mind me using their Wi-Fi to send a few emails or Skype.

Does anyone know if I would be able to have full functionality of the TV using Mi-F.

Thank you.

Regards

To access the UK TV Catchup services on Freesat (or Sky)  you will need to use a UK IP address on your internet service, usually by subscribing to a VPN / DNS service that offers such things.Otherwise, the "iplayers" will see your Spanish Ip address, and you will be "geo blocked" from accessing their content - in the same way that it is blocked if you try to connect to it via a PC.

Thanks for the info much appreciated.

Regards,
