Try disconnecting your MOD box power it off, unplug your modem power it off for a bit then reboot them.

This will often help when you have streaming issues.

It's possible to up and downgrade your package from your sofa ... without picking up a phone

BBC info... I found out that the BBC is not part of any package. They are "al la carte" channels. You can just add them at will from the "setup" page They are a little steep though. The price is 50NT a month each. You can drop it too at will. But you already have to finish out the month.

I would sign up right now for BBC entertainment in order to watch Doctor Who and a couple other shows. Unfortunately they are on when I must work. Is there an inexpensive recording option for MOD yet?

We get the BBC channels as part of our (top-end) package. Didn't have to select them from a menu, or pay extra.

BBC channels were just there one day for us. No selection or special ordering needed, and looking at the last bill, no extra payment either.

BBC channels are included in the top level package at no extra charge. According to the earlier post, it seems as if they can also be selected at an added cost by people who do not have the top level package.

BBC Channels? I thought I had the top of the line package. I guess I have the family package. Could you please link to your package and tell me the monthly fee. Getting information here is a headache.

I've got Nick, FX, BBC News Kidsco and a few National Geographic Channels, and and many other Channels. I don't have FOX News, the other BBC channels and Fox

Through your MOD provider CHT, you can get fiber internet (FAST), pick a package and the premium MOD package is only 99nt up and beyond that internet package.

I opted with 50M/12M for 999nt, and then with MOD for another 99nt, not a bad deal in my opinion.

Only reason I mention is at the time I got MOD they only offered ADSL and I was waiting for my 'cable internet' to run out (pre-paid for a year), but fiber is fast so I made the change once my other internet was over. Not sure what I will do with that much bandwidth but at least it is there!
