    I also used the stream for Froch Dirrel and had 0 problems. You have to take into account your connection etc.

    If you order through your TV you can record it to watch later, if you have to call to order you can't

    Right okay. Thanks for the info.

    My laptop is a very good model, but the internet connection im not so sure.

    I use a vodafone USB dongle. I been watching the cricket on live feed the last 2 nights and havent had a single problem. But could be a different story for a pay per view.

    Think im going to risk it. Would usually go to the pub or casino but I got a badly sprained ankle :mad:

    A 3G dongle really isn't the best connection for viewing streaming events due to the bandwidth and low latency required for a good quality stream (I'd say 750k plus as an absolute minimum but 2Mb is what I'd recommend) If you encounter issues, it's far more likely to be your connection than through any fault of Primetime's broadcast. Good luck though, I hope you're able to watch the event without issue.
