sorry tom,

I just thought that it looks likely  that they won't ever sort it, so to actually try and figure out what the ones who work have different to the ones who don't might help.

wasn't having a go at you duffy at all,it's frustrating to the hilt now,they don't know how or why it happens and I don't see a way out at the moment
Report duffy January 31, 2016 4:09 PM GMT
No probs tom

Surely the burning question is why does mine and a few others work??, there has to be something unique that needs to be pinpointed.

So that rules out  it being a BT problem or an individual's isp

The problem is at Betfair/atr's end.  They are not opening enough servers or bandwith to deal with all the traffic hence only some are not having any problems.

Exactly. So open up more servers to deal with it, it aint rocket science. They must know roughly how many people will be using the live video
service on a daily basis.

Location issue due to lack of servers open/working

The closest to Betfair's servers probably getting the best deal. The further away you go the worse it becomes, like you get better speed the closer you are to your local exchange.

Where are you in the uk and how is your lv?  That might narrow the issue down

Would guess all the ones that are working fine are closer to betfair's server than the ones with the problems
Report piston February 2, 2016 3:29 PM GMT
The truth of the matter is probably down to the fact that Betfair provide this LV Service across 3 servers. Sometimes they just need to wake up and reboot one of the servers. WHAT IS REALLY CRIMINAL IS THEIR CS DO NOTHING
