UK economy to lose £198m if BBC and pals lose EPG slots - Ministry of Fun
Re: popularity
Exactly!
On Freesat HD if I select BBC1 it will tell me there is an HD version of the same program and give me the option to select it.
On Sky I tend to watch (or record) non HD BBC programs because the HD version is hidden away on another tab and I keep forgetting but if you look at Sky Sports and Movies all the HD channels come first followed by their lesser equivalents

VPN - Any Recommendations?
VPN - Any Recommendations?
There are loads of sites out there recommending Free VPNs for secure browsing and anonymity but having read lots of reviews and then used OpenVPN and CyberGhost based on these I've decided they are proving to be decidedly ropey.
I want something that secures my connection, ideally doesn't require me to sign up for an account and if a free product has a decent quota and reasonable speed. Mostly for internet surfing, banking etc and some downloading. What do you lot use?

BT engineers - missed appointments
Very good service
Turned up on time to install fibre router, called me before hand to check I was home and let me know he was sorting out settings at the exchange and street cabinet.
Install was really neat and engineer very polite and well informed. All up and running in about an hour. Cannot fault him
Official: Sky to buy O2 and BE's home broadband product in £200m deal
Greedy Sky admits: We crippled broadband with TOO MANY users
No worse off
I've been with Sky for years now and my speeds have recently been poor due to their DLM strangling my line because of noise apparently. Ive just been sent a replacement router and micrfilters and had DLM taken off.
Currently getting 5.5meg which I'm pleased with.
Fair play to Sky, their customer service has been excellent, it's just the automated DLM and possibly my line that's the problem.
Have read the comments I checked all quoted suppliers, BE, ZEN, IDnet and all will only give me a top whack of 3mb. So I'm happy to stay put for now and if I upgrade anything it will be to Fibre.

Cameron defends U-turn on web filth ban, leaves filtering to parents
How?
So when he says they will show you how to differentiate between individual offspring and the times and sites they casn access, how are ISPs going to do that then with a multitude of web enabled kit like PC, Tablet, phone?
I've looked in my router settings and there is nothing in there that will allow me to limit such things with that level of finesse
