SKY On Demand connection

[Phoenix .]

Has anyone done this successfully?

I spend 2 hrs yesterday inputting the details from my router into the Sky on demand connection, it just will not accept my details, soooo frustrating, contacted Sky who says they cannot help as they don't have my router details.

Oh well, have managed without it before will manage without it now.

I got a free wireless adaptor,plugged it in and away i went.

Sorry I can't help as I use mine with an ethernet cable... really annoying though because as I connected this way at my own expense, I'm not entitled to a free wireless connector! Grrr...

Patience pays..After several more attempts I realised where I was going wrong, now up and running and I love it, I like the 'catch-up' saves me recording stuff.
Watched half of Wolverine last night, can't make my mind up whether I like it or not, the acting is superb , but not having seen the 1st one, I am having problems with getting to grips with the story line, will persevere tonight and watch a bit more.

Come on then, what were you doing wrong? It'll be useful for us to know

I run mine over home plugs effectively using your ring main as an Ethernet cable. Very useful if your router and skybox aren't in the same room. Works perfectly and plug and play.

Don't know if it was me but it did not take me straight to the 'Password' page it took me to another where I was inputting e mail addy and the access key, which was not needed.

Got another shock yesterday, my ISP informed me that I had gone over the limit on my BB, I completely forgot that watching Catch-up and on Demand was classed as streaming, now had to pay more for unlimited BB, but it doesnt start till the 27th so no streaming until then.

[Bluefish]

Yeah you have to have unlimited in this day and age.

get back to them and negotiate
they have given me movie for 3 months free and an extra wireless connector to go with the wireless router and added an extra socket in another room ready for all my bit i may or may not acquire at a later date
