Jazztel are not to be trusted, keep well away. Took a year to realize they should not be charging me after I changed to Telfy. Pulling their payments back should have been a hint, and the 2 letters and a fax? Customer service is a joke. Something breaks and it take weeks to fix, blaming Telefonica for not fixing it!Take anyone but them. And they charge for ALL calls that are not Jazztel to Jazztel, and there is not many of those left!!

I am wondering why you changed to Telfy?
What was Oceans connection costs for internet .
Telfy looks big and they are connecting internet on my complex.
But there connection fees 150€ to 200€ and only 10mb up speed.
meganet gives you free connection if you agree to a 18 month contract and you can turn it off if your away.

I wonder what the other too have are they able to connect me in Gran Sol.
Help

That's why is good to shop around

Hacked Amazon firesticks use Kodi. Kodi is unreliable with streams being switched off and apps as well. Yes free - but simple/stable - no, not unless you are using the Firestick for Amazon prime. Amazon also made numerous threats about blocking Firesticks that have sideloaded or non-official software on them.

It looks like Kodi in the main, has 'had its day'. It seems like on a weekly basis apps are being shut down, live streams are hard to locate / unstable. It does still have its uses - free is free. But simple, easy, turn it on and watch TV like a Sky box or regular TV box, quite a way from it. Hosted type services offer considerable differences, such as the likes of a program guide, catch up services, defined channel list, recording all in a singular operating system - which is what people are used to, rather than a mish mash of semi working applications.

Other services such as Kodi as a little 'home hobbyist' as well as the number of applications you need, as well as the dependence on content all of which is being relied on being freely available.An example of an issue often experienced is when people are watching live football. Person hosting freely may have capability of 1000 simultaneous users, then 10,000 jump on - no ones is monitoring, as its free.....Then whole thing grinds to a half, picture freezes. In any properly executed hosted based service, the amount of users online is actively monitored and new servers added as system expands, keeping services stable.

Horses for courses ;-) Ultimately if going down the path of IPTV, there's a few ways to go about it IMO Amazon firestick is ok for a little play, but personally for a main viewing solution, believe there are better options available.
