Thanks for all your help everyone - have found it on MD2, as advised.

Good job really, just got little grandson off to sleep in preparation ! !

There was a post on the facebook page stating that the calendar and listings would be different today.

BabylonClaret · Post by **BabylonClaret** » Sat May 13, 2017 5:33 pm

Yeah - the games were there but just not titled.

TheOriginalLongsider · Post by **TheOriginalLongsider** » Sat May 13, 2017 5:47 pm

Check the Facebook page. I think they're avoiding listing actual matches but they are there

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sat May 13, 2017 7:29 pm

Our game was fine today but struggled with sky sports games. Does seem to have been a little cryptic today. Stream listing not even on their website.

cloughyclaret · Post by **cloughyclaret** » Sat May 13, 2017 7:37 pm

SportsNation has been really hard work the past few weeks, constantly dropping (for me) since the Joshua fight (I couldn't find one working link on SN) Sky Sports channels are a nightmare.

There's a new paid sub called RemoteTV that is getting some good reviews, so might be worth a whirl when my sub runs out.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sat May 13, 2017 8:14 pm

Sky Living and Sky 1 have disappeared from mine.

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sat May 13, 2017 8:24 pm

Interestingly their twitter page was recommending a VPN if you were having issues.

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sun May 14, 2017 1:46 pm

They've tweeted today that their services have been attempted to be blocked. They are working on something new to overide this so we've been told not to panic.

Pearcey · Post by **Pearcey** » Sun May 14, 2017 2:23 pm

Still nothing on sportsnation. Hope they sort it out soon.

whiffa · Post by **whiffa** » Sun May 14, 2017 2:51 pm

Guys if you use SportsNation you need to join their Facebook group - Willo and the Admins regularly post updates on there. There's a link to the facebook group directly from the sportsnation website, I won't share it on here.

There's been issues with VPN's today apparently but they're working on it.

cloughyclaret · Post by **cloughyclaret** » Sun May 14, 2017 3:36 pm

Mines ok today,first time in ages it hasn't stuttered. I haven't had a problem with my VPN either. Fingers crossed it'll be a bit better from now on.

TheOriginalLongsider · Post by **TheOriginalLongsider** » Sun May 14, 2017 3:38 pm

It was bad today. Looking at VPNs now.

Chuckypad · Post by **Chuckypad** » Wed May 17, 2017 9:37 pm

Anybody having problems with sportsmania at the minute?

I can access the United game but I'd prefer to cut my knob off with a rusty breadknife than watch that

It won't let me on the Sheff Wed game at all, either through the firestick or online...getting the message 'Cannot load M3U8: Cross domain access denied'

Had the Sheff Wed game on for a short while but it booted me off and there was a stock image saying something or other about being to the limit

I can't access any of the sky sports channels either

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Wed May 17, 2017 9:45 pm

Cheers Chucky, I thought it was just me. I have had exactly the same experience but resisted the
rusty breadknife scenario and finally gave up all hope of watching Owls v Huddersfax.
Shame really as I hear it's gone to extra time.

Hope they get it sorted soon or I will be asking for a refund.

JohnMac · Post by **JohnMac** » Wed May 17, 2017 9:50 pm

Owls game is on SM.
Alledgedly if you go to the Calendar and look there then at 'Eleven' you will find it.

Yeah it's there alright, in a few locations, but they are all failing to load for some reason.

As stated earlier, the Moanyoo match was not a problem, so not sure what's going on.

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Wed May 17, 2017 9:57 pm

Well, bugger my teddy. I have just tried again and it's loaded ok.

JohnMac · Post by **JohnMac** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:00 pm

There is a concentrated effort from certain agencies to block it.

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:03 pm

Well that was short and sweet - it froze and I can't get it back again.

Bloody thing.

gawthorpe_view · Post by **gawthorpe_view** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:03 pm

Emails being sent out to Subscribers giving you an extra week free as an apology for recent difficulties.
Instructions on how to claim your free week at the link.

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:08 pm

An extra week is a nice gesture but, given it will be in the middle of the cricket season for me, is of no real use.

could it be your internet speed...running slow?

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:18 pm

Have checked my speed and am getting 13 Mbps, so don't think it's that.
The United game was fine and in HD, but I would close the curtains if they
were playing in my back garden.

lucs86 · Post by **lucs86** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:21 pm

Just signed up tonight, watched the cricket but no footy whatsoever. Only did a month, hope it picks up.

ClaretAL · Post by **ClaretAL** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:22 pm

Install a VPN opera vpn or vpn master ( playstore appstore)and all will work allegedly

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:32 pm

Not sure what this VPN lark is all about, so will need to do some research/reading on the matter.
Don't know why, but it seems a bit subversive to me, but I will give it a coat of looking at.

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:41 pm

I signed up to a VPN last night but still hasn't worked on the firestick so had to watch through my iPhone.

barba · Post by **barba** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:55 pm

I'd not come across sportsmania before coming on here.

I ended up using Sportsaccess and very rarely have problems with multiple links and HD links for all Prem games.

Maybe a bit dearer than SM and you've got to pay in bitcoins but perhaps an alternate for those with persistent problems. Think they give a 24 hr trial.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Thu May 18, 2017 1:16 am

Just had an email from the Mania Team.
Free week for us all, owing to the problems. Then a new system after the weekend.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Thu May 18, 2017 2:44 am

As you may or may not be aware we experienced some issues with the EPL over the past week (Only if you were in the United Kingdom).

If you used Match Day Section 2 (Recommended) on Kodi / SPMC then you would of been fine, however if you used others then you may of experienced some issues.

We know what the issues are and if you are on our Facebook group you would of seen the updates from us.

We are implementing a brand new system at the end of the Football season so we are asking for your help and patience. We aren't the only IPTV company with these issues but we have a new system in place to make sure you guys are taken care of.

As a goodwill gesture and to thank you for your loyalty to The Mania Services we have decided to give you a free week extension to your existing subscription.

For the time being if you want to watch EPL we ask you either use the website or what we recommend is downloading Kodi or SPMC on to your device, Installing our Kodi Addon and going to Match Day Section 2 (Recommended).

PLEASE NOTE: Sunday 21st May 2017 due to the EPL having 10 games we do not have enough streamers to cover every game from the NBC source as not all games are covered on the NBC channels, however never fear we will show all games in Match Day Section 2 (recommended) on Kodi/SPMC only so if you want to watch your team on the final day of the season please follow the instructions on installing Kodi and our addon and from there you can go to Match Day Section 2 (recommended) on the addon and you will be fine.

We can't thank you enough for your patience in this matter, It's because of people like yourself that make this service what it is today so we thank you.

A quick side note: If you didn't know then we have our own build for The Mania Services, So if you don't have it installed on your Kodi / SPMC then feel free to follow this guide on how to install it: https://youtu.be/4_qI4TG_kSE" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

If you already have the build then here is how to update it: https://youtu.be/8sRF-8LyIy4" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Kind Regards

The Mania Team

I think the reason they send out personal emails and have a 'Secret Group' status on FB is being slightly missed by publishing it in the public domain

JohnMac · Post by **JohnMac** » Thu May 18, 2017 10:19 am

A technical question for the IT experts out there:

Can you install a VPN onto a Sky Broadband Router?

I have read a few articles which suggest it might be possible or might not and admit to being confused with all the jargon.

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Thu May 18, 2017 10:22 am

Would of, should of ! !

Should we be trusting any organisation that confuses "of" with "have" ?
