[QUOTE="Jim Blake, post: 984836, member: 82768"] I'm trying to help an elderly friend with limited funds and computer knowledge, to access Rugby on his PC. He uses BT Broadband and a subscription to BT Sport at present, but its costing him a king's ransom and he's asked if I can help him get off BT Broadband (That's easy, I will recommend the ISP I use, Zen) and get his rugby another (legal!) way. He lives in the UK and believes he needs to replace BT Sport with a subscription to RugbyPass and a VPN. I'm reasonably computer literate, but I know nothing about watching sport on the PC, so here's the questions: [LIST=1] [*]Does he need RugbyPass, or could he subscribe to something else that's better? For example, could he continue to use BT Sport over a different ISP? [*]If he's not going out of the UK, does he need a VPN? [*]If he needs a VPN, what is the best/cheapest from your experience? [*]I've googled this extensively, but can't find any "how to" pages....are there any you can refe me to? [/LIST] Thanks for any advice you can give. If this post is out of order in any way, please feel free to roundly criticise me and throw bricks :) Jim [/QUOTE]
