SmarTech at Benijofar, on right side just after Citreon garage, on the way in. Ask for Antonio, English speaking Spanish man. He will sort it all for you. PM me if you need more details

Yes we have one - works well but the important point to bear in mind, as with all such devices, is the size of your internet connection.
We got ours from DoctorDigital in Quesada Calle Los Arcos No 7 Tel: 865608115
Good Luck with your hunt

Minimum of 4 Meg seems to come to mind but it was, I think, average and of course as we all know what are ISP's claim and what we get are to different things.
I ran a speed test on my connection at different times of the day to see what happened in the real world beforehand!

I had a similar box in the UK and there we have something like 40meg BT Infinity and it still buffered and locked up at times that it was frustrating and I gave up using it so it's worth reading unbiased reviews before buying. This box may be different but as it still runs off the Internet it could have similar problems.

Most Internet here comes from various servers, thats the way it works. Besides speed you need to check Ping rate, lower the better. I believe when the source changes it can cause freezing if ping is high.
