iptv vs iks?

[Curler89]

Hope this question is in the right area. If not could you please move it to where it should be. Having never had IPTV is it more reliable then IKS for being up and working or are the two about the same? Thanks

it's way more reliable
just check posts
how many do you see about being down?

with iptv, you have more alternative: if one channel is down, you may find another UP with same show, ex soccer game.

25mbps/unlimited for less than $70/month

the biggest difference is data use iptv use way more like 100 times more so if you limited to data caps iptv will most likely not work for you. other than that 1 thing iptv is way better.

I only have have 200 gb a Month with IPTV.At about 3 hours a day of streaming T.V. I rarely go over 100gb.Its not that bad usage wise.It is much more reliable then IKS with Dish.IKS with Dish was a waste of my money pure and simple!I can't say for IKS with Bev because I never tried it..

I might be wrong but I think you always have a choice using Xplorenet.I know its expensive.

$140 / month for internet only ? wow... Or bundle with internet, TV and phone ?

Wow.. Sorry to here this, but where is this ?
Only place I can think of, is the suburbs where bell or basic cable providers are nowhere to be found, and you are forced to use satellite internet or LTE internet. Even something like xplornet (which is not cheap), offers $80/month for LTE 10 internet service with 300GB/month included.

Here in QC, you can now get Gigabit internet (or close to it) from Bell or Videotron with unlimited data for about $100/month usually (plus or minus depending on promos). Videotron just added a 400/50 cable plan with unlimited data for $85/month (with a $20/month promo discount for 1 year, for new customers - so $65/month for first year).

Comwave has 30Mbps for $50cdn per month with no caps and works anywhere that has Bell(spit) service. A friend of mine out in the sticks here uses it for iptv without issue.

Transat Telecom also good price for unlimited . 44 buck for 30mps and 48 bucks for 60mps .Only things working only in ON +QC

Both of the above providers are just Bell resellers.. If Dodgem had access to Bell infrastructure, it would not have been an issue, and I don't think he'd be paying the price he is right now.

In many rural areas, the options are satellite internet, WiFi/WiMAX, LTE, microwave and other techs. In some areas, some private providers, have started laying out private fiber networks. However none of these come cheap obviously, due to the size of the targeted market.
