BT Vision (UK IPTV / Internet) - Multicast + Unicast on same wired port??
Hi, I recently bought a Nighthawk R8000 to replace my BT Home Hub 4. All went well until I checked the BT Vision service I have. This box uses standard internet and multicast for TV services. ...
Hello All,
Here's a trial firmware that you may try to get it working.
Just wanted to add that my Netgear Nighthawk x4s (d7800) router/modem received a firmware upgrade lastnight (1.0.0.46) - in the firmware notes it mentioned that it was a fix for UK iptv issues specifically BT/plus net.
After installing the firmware I can confirm that I now receive BT sport channels directly and without any issues (though I have only just done the firmware so we will see in the long term). I didn't need to change any settings, it just worked after the router reboot.
Whether this is true for all nighthawk router/modems I don't know, but definitely for the D7800.
Regards,
Yes, the r7000 has also received an update and one of the features is bt tv support and all is working well now.
