In this instance I agree entirely with your position ref Faust’s pipedream. However, I welcome the fact that you don’t own any of these forums and are in no position to close down a thread. It seems to be your fall-back position every time you cannot persuade another poster of the wisdom of your argument. Why don’t you just close down your keyboard and ignore Faust as some others might wish to contribute.

InactiveGraham I simply said many posts back I thought PVRs were on borrowed time due to changes in technology and how people now consume their media, especially younger people. I said in my last post you are absolutely entitled to your opinion just like I am entitled to mine.
What happens – you launch into what is in effect a toys out the pram rant. As others have remarked on more than a few occasions that I have seen, you just can’t abide it if you think your opinion is being challenged in any way. You then try to blind the poster with science. It’s childish and not an attractive trait.

No intention of closing down the thread just not continuing a pointless argument which in terms of the thread title is way off topic, nor any intention to censor any argument. No problem with a seperate thread, this thread is not the place for it.
It has nothing to do with bugs or newbie errors on the HDR1000/1010/1100S boxes.
Best to move all this to another more relevant discussion thread.

InactiveQuote:When you understand the limitation between the highest possible frequency and the possible bandwidth you may understand what you state is simply not possible with our current understanding without the highest frequency of Electromagnetic radiation we know about (Light itself) and the capability to handle this sort of frequency directly without having to downshift the frequency to the sort of frequencies (Like a LNB downshifts microwave frequencies, to those that can be coped with a coax cable) even the latest technology has no chance of your expectations.Not wanting to get into a ‘Science Off’ with Graham but obviously we do know about higher frequencies than light and I thought this might interest others.
NASA will be testing x-ray communication technology in space with the potential to transmit Gigabits per second using very little power, it even has the capacity to penetrate radio-frequency shielding on the ground.
The technology is part of NavCube and should be on International Space Station in 2018.
BTW I don’t see a problem with a little off topic conversation, it makes the forum more interesting.

Yep that’s fast, here in the sticks we have just got 4G mobile broadband (using our outside antenna) and I’m well impressed with that, we actually get what I’d call a decent speed, up to 50 megabits per second. (3G was terrible)

Bet that’s pretty expensive compared to the underground stuff 😳
I wouldn’t want to be using that for Netflix or Amazon Prime.

InactiveI’m sure it is, but it was cheaper than the other rural alternatives at the time. There is another local wireless alternatives which has recently upgraded and it’s better value but I’m not sure we can get it.
Your right totally useless for streaming.
