jasonb Posted 19 August, 2017 Share Posted 19 August, 2017 Sportsmania closing down their social media accounts. They are going to feel the heat more than anyone else. They have grown to be a serious threat and a viable alternative. Despite the intermittent issues which many have, it's been very good for me personally. I have had the occasional hiccup but generally it's been a far cry from the old acetsream /sports devil days a few years ago. I'm still on the "imwaiting" temp subscription as my sub ended a week or two back. Probably won't bother signing up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am willing to get a VPN too Did you try entering "imwaiting" (without the quotes) in the coupon field of the sign up page? They handed out 2 week subscriptions because of their issues in getting their backend configured for the start of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have VPN in place but only need when Saints are away and if I'm not going. Will be a shame if they go though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonb Posted 19 August, 2017 Share Posted 19 August, 2017 Seems that SM is dead [emoji88] We knew you so well.... I am out and about now but had a quick play earlier on, sky channels were playing ok as was wwe network (my son is into the wrestling). Then I tried match day channels for the United game - terrible buffering even on SD channels. I have a VPN in place but my area is over subscribed so Virgin media contending me badly. Having said that I can still watch Netflix/Prime etc so my connection is ok. Think I'll just fall back to the radio/official site for commentary. I get too frustrated with a buffering channel :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 19 August, 2017 Share Posted 19 August, 2017 Seems that SM is dead [emoji88] We knew you so well.... They've gone underground a bit, which is understandable, but it's still absolutely fine. At the moment you need to make sure you've got a VPN in place though.

St Chalet Posted 19 August, 2017 Share Posted 19 August, 2017 Why the need for a VPN? Is that only if you're in the UK? (I'm not) I suspect so. UK ISP's are blocking SM servers.

Pilchards Posted 20 August, 2017 Share Posted 20 August, 2017 I don't have the best knowledge on streams but I have been lucky in the past to watch on cricfree. Due to the bad buffering I'm looking at paying a subscription for one. Is there anything out there that won't be cut off plus I don't really understand VPN either. I run a 17meg connection off sky and I'm looking at watching it on my mac. PS I would attend more games but I work until 2-00pm most Saturday's plus I start work at 4-00pm on Sunday's Cheers in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio Saint Posted 20 August, 2017 Share Posted 20 August, 2017 PIA VPN for me too. Been using it for a year. It is very easy, the best, and one of the cheapest . I thoroughly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 20 August, 2017 Share Posted 20 August, 2017 PIA for me too. Been using it for a year. It is very easy, the best, and one of the cheapest . I thoroughly recommend it. I would 2nd/third and forth that. Been using PIA for about a year myself. It's a variant of OpenVPN, so if your router is capable you can do some clever routing stuff so only certain devices use the VPN at specific times. Works a treat.

S-Clarke Posted 20 August, 2017 Share Posted 20 August, 2017 This is a bugger, my subscription has ended and I can't renew. If you still have a login to the site and you can get to the subscriptions area, you 'should' be able to use the '2 week free' they're giving out. Payments will be open again in a couple of weeks once their fancy new VPN/proxy based solution is out, apparently. imwaiting is the code...

sammysaint Posted 20 August, 2017 Share Posted 20 August, 2017 SportsMania is working fine if you use a VPN, just annoying it's 9 dollars a month for a VPN and then 50 a year for SM, which is still good but not as cost effective as it once was.
