This is wat i need. Naija wen
I'm yet to see a single dish in the entire Livry-Gangan here in Paris. I guess with very strong internet, many people opted for IPTV.

I was in Istanbul, Turkey between December 21 to 24th before coming to Paris. Didn't sight a single dish as well.

Back in Nigeria, I bought a 4 metre dish in November dish year for Hotbird 13 and 9e. Now I'm laughing at myself.

Nigeria is not worthy of being called a country.

I've attached some details about the TV.

If you can search for it. This is France and most equipment features are written in French language.

But with these features (especially 4K) it can't be less than ₦500,000 to a little below ₦1,000,000

This is full HD live Streaming with Orange France. No single buffering. 101% stable. This is not what any of our ISPs can offer. Non of them can offer this kind of speed and stability

After watching Norwich City vs Tottenham, now it's Burnley vs Man United. Second half now courtesy RMC Sport 1 live streaming.

ISP is Orange, France. I snapped an image of the internet Box. It's unlimited download.

Maybe when God decides to intervene in Nigeria, our country will become better

For anyone interested, some details below

https://www.electrodepot.fr/led-samsung-65ru7025-smart-wifi-bluetooth-hdr.html?LGWCODE=13251;158829;2865&gclid=Cj0KCQiAl5zwBRCTARIsAIrukdPK2XV9ZEeRgssyUOIotTPYiL3e1b74F8tyByW33lnGLh-CfBAWwXMaAqnWEALw_wcB#

Price at €799*₦407= ₦325,000

Cheaper than I thought and it's 65 inches wide, with full 4k features. 4k is an advanced Technology which very few boxes operates on presently.

Some channels on Hotbird 13e are 4k. Some of the popular decoders can't show their pictures. Example is Canal 4k which can't be watched on Strong decoder

I hail my Igbo brothers oo.
Biafra has 2 channels under NIGERIAN channels on Smart TV app

My brother, I agree it's our land.

I can't leave Nigeria now cause I have a business and staff are under my employment with monthly salaries. However for those who are not in that position and seeking good life for themselves and kids, it's best you migrate.

I'm sure Danfo Driver's must have showed u pepper before.

I'm sure you must have gone to the hospital with Doctors giving you excuses or you hear Doctors on strike.

I'm Police may have said 'wetin you carry before'

I'm sure roads leading to your house must be bad.

I'm sure you have a generator or inverter because of epileptic power supply.

I'm sure your GSM network provider may have ripped you off before or bad network

These are things that are not available in developed countries.

I do shed tears when I see people suffer and pray daily for people to enjoy good life in Nigeria.

I cry when driving from my house to the Island via 3rd Mainland Bridge with kids Hawking sachet water.

Even on this thread, I see how people crave for premium TV channels and are relying on FTA just because they may not be able to afford ₦14,000 per month Paytv.

Here's the difference. With €15 per month, you get super fast internet unlimited and you'll be earning about €3000 a month as Salary. Do the conversation at ₦407 exchange rate

In Nigeria, Ntel sells unlimited for ₦17,000 and you'll still have poor coverage. Someone earning ₦50,000 a month, from which he would take transportation, buy fuel in generator, Pay IKEDC or EKEDC, pay security levy and pay taxes, how would he get good quality life?

That's why I'm upset with the system in Nigeria

davodyguy:


There's this particular one I'm watching here in Paris, France but I think it's in built into the TV.

The app is called Smart TV app with over 5000 channels.

I'll ask my host how he did it. But the TV is a smart TV with 4k features, cos I've tried downloading SmartTV app on regular Android TV box but non is working.

All the channels are available, but don't know if it's free.

The network ISP is Orange France and it's super fast. They operate on 4G+ with speed of light.

All countries have channels featured and since my Arrival in Paris on 24th December, I've been watching Nigeria channels.

Will snap some images.

All RMC sports are live here
All beIN sports are live here.

See attached images

Sorry to break this to you. But this is an iptv service sold online. The Smarttv app is from available on samsung shop. It's a paid app but allows you to watch for a week or so, not sure of the days but you will have to pay to continue its use costing around $6.
You then have to buy an iptv account which will be given to you as a playlist, usually ending as m3u .... you put the file name or playlist into the smarttvapp and it validates the link and you can watch your iptv account on it. What you need is good internet speed.

Well said.
I hail you.

GeorgeD1:
My insatiable quest for satellite knowledge coupled with a driving desire to break free from the
clutches of payTV led me to nairaland and eventually I stumbled on the official FTA thread (part 1).
The likes of olofofo, badaru, microgiant, olason, F-marshal, adex70, blexxonmak, Dejsam,
enitan, Evans Ghanney, Gadotor, ikiriye, jujukemist, obnelly, borderline, twinsoris, tox naija,
including adewest who single handedly pulled down nilesat signals (BBC, CNN, Aljazeera, etc) with
a 2.4m pan dish in Lagos at a time when other installers were struggling to make headway even
with 3m. Not forgetting butsoneday, the undisputed king of sat who raised the BUD bar with a 5m
monster installation. Also, twinstaiye, Pidzo, sathob, freshp, jayron, enigma, twinskenny,
ameboperoo, bodejohn, pitodenze, sayso, Maddox, illish, arelukman, pofolo, esuo, odilibe and
others too numerous to mention...
We rode the waves together, through the Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (parts 1 - 5) and
when that thread was finally closed we moved on to the Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread.
It's been an exciting decade of learnings. A time in history never to be forgotten.
And now as we move on into the new year, may our journey take us to places never before explored.
As the old gives way to the new, I hope new members and others yet to join will be proud to have
their names mentioned among the great ones who helped to keep the FTA fire burning.
Break the myth, dispel the belief, YOU KNOW YOU CAN!!!

Nigeria's problem can be summarized with four key areas - slow/fluctuating internet, disheartening power supply, near-total insecurity and corruption.


Unfortunately, if you bring that TV over here, it would be almost useless because ISPs here can't supply the kind of data speed a true 4K channel requires to run. In fact, if they could do that, of course some of us who can afford data would do away with anything dish and fully embrace IPTV.

I ordered for Netgear's Nighthawk M2 mobile Wi-Fi capable of downloading files at 2GBs/s, but who has witnessed a download speed of up to 50MBs/s in this country? I just ordered it with 'future' in my mind, plus it's unlocked and can accept any SIM with appropriate bands, so I can use it if I eventually leave these shores.

This is the state of our country. A sad one.

I'm not sure any of our Network can support it as of now.

Our own '4g LTE' is comparable to 3.75g of other nations.

It's going to be terrible in Nigeria

The one my host is using cost €50 per annum for all channels.

There's no Paytv receivable in Nigeria as of today that can match the content in terms of number of channels or premium contents.

Turkish league, Tunisian league, Moroccan league, EPL, UCL, all UFC, Tennis, Golf etc are all live. If your kids wants entertainment, over 500 kiddies programmes are available.

Hotbird and 9e can only try, but can't match this app.
As you said, network is a challenge.

We are using LTE+ here in France, close to 5g
