I'm using Kodi on my PC in Australia. Have tried several subscription providers including DexterTV and Rash but cannot find one where I can watch HD channels without buffering. Our connection is NBN 100/40 so our speed is not an issue but I understand using a UK/US based provider is probably the issue. Can anyone recommend a provider that can be used in Australia without buffering?
Smoothstreams mate. ATM regos are closed but will be open again soon. join the subreddit /r/smoothstreamstv I use it on my lowly 17M Adsl2 connection with no issues. Father shares the connection with me (you can have up to 3 connections at same time) and he is on cable
Have you tried using VPN?
I'm on Telstra cable, so nowhere near NBN speeds, and have tried:
IPTVsubs.is -- didn't work for me, HD never played correctly, dropouts and buffers aplenty
Sportsaccess.se -- no issues with streams, but not really a full IPTV experience, also a lot of people have experienced bad service from them lately
RuyaXL -- easy Kodi addon, UK channels all work nicely and in 1080p for the most part. Weekends are hit and miss around prem games though.
Smoothstreams -- next on my list to try
When Ruys works, it works brilliantly. What shits me most about it though is that the channels are up and down sometimes; BBC buggered off completely for a weekend recently. As far as I can work out this is common to all resellers and is something Ruya's end (though I stand to be corrected if this isn't accurate.)
One of the reasons I signed up for Ruya was its promise of catch-up, which I'd mostly use for BBC and EPL games. Ruya seem to have neglected this which is a a shame, some UK channels haven't updated since August and a Sky Sports Super Sunday crapped out after 30 minutes despite being a 3 hour show.
Hey bud, I've got some people from Adelaide and Sydney using my service and its working fine for them. Check out www.ruya-iptv.com and I'll get you a 24hr test account. Thanks
