freitasm: Get a hotel address in Oregon and use that - no state tax added.
pedrogarcia: I'll give Orcon's Global Mode a week or so, but so far it's just been too slow to rely on compared to paid alternatives, and I still can't get a live stream on iPlayer.

tgzerozone:Rubu: I have been using Unotelly for ages with no problems, so this morning decided to try or con's Global servers.... no probe on main computer (iMac) BUT can connect to iPlayer on iPad, but just buffers for ages and then says 'Insufficient Bandwidth'. I have UFB and if i switch back to UnoDNS settings all working well....any suggestions please? Orcon's Tech Help told me it won't work with iPad!! I pointed out that on Orcon's site there are instructions for how to use with iPad and iPhone...oh, and he had NEVER heard of Apple TV! HELP!!!!!!
Orcon just launched this service and Kudos to them for wanting to shove a big one up sky's bum hole along with slingshot. Surely there will be some teething problems. I think all of us making use of overseas services would like to see sky's butt kicked. Try and be positive for the brand new service and there might be some help to get it running smoothly.
And just a bit of advice, don't expect to get high level assistance from a first level help desk person, you are setting yourself up for disappointment with that. He might sit in India with a book highlighting what questions to ask for all that you know.
Another tip... UFB doesn't automatically make your international bandwidth go faster, so having UFB here might not mean much.
Rubu: Any tips for speaking to some not in Singapore?!!!

tgzerozone: So everyone with fibre and VDSL etc. If you go to speedtest.net and connect to let's say "San Francisco", what is your download result? Do not connect to an Auckland server.
Snackos: Anyone having problems getting netflix in HD? I have VDSL so its hardly a bandwidth issue. I've changed the account settings to high quality.
