I have yet to find one. When you say IPTV does it include everything? I mean Every OSN and BeIN channel ? I'm not interested in watching Football in french or God knows what language
Yes bein sports and bein entertainment should be included, as well as OSN.
Most of the iptv providers with these packages are going to be from our sister county.
My current susbtiption will end at December and I am looking for a new provider. Because this one has some channels that are basically recordings and are repeating the same stuff for a year.
Well if Econet offers me everything for $25 a month, I'm no sure if saving $10 is worth all the headache.

Where did you get the $24 from ?

To the best of my knowledge these prices are one time only as they include installation costs and first 3 months. The monthly cost is not mentioned on the website and it reaches up to 24$ for 4 TVs. (15$ for 1 TV, 18$ for 2 TVs 21$ for 3TVs.) But you need to do a 360 day subscription to get these prices.
OK but what's up with the 4 TVs subscription? Are we talking about 4 receivers ?
Also note, according to this post https://lebgeeks.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=172315#p172315 when you get more than one receiver you will have 1 master receiver and the rest will be slave receivers. They all need to be connected to the same wifi network so the master receiver can distribute the encryption keys to the slave receivers.
Yeah that's not an issue. I just tried now an IPTV playlist It's offering all OSN / BeIN + 4000 channels for free but it's working on VLC. Gotta see how to import it to TV.


Edit : It didn't really survive the doubts. Channels are repeating and there's a minute lag between real broadcasting and streaming.

I'm calling Econet tomorrow to see how things will go.
I talked with my local cable guy yesterday--he told me that on Econet, only the MASTER gets Bein Sports, the others can receive OSN, but not Bein. I have to find someone else to confirm this because sometimes he gets the details wrong.

You tried a free server online?
Or you got a test trial from a real provider?

Theres a difference!

That doesn't make sense. It's a subscription on the master receiver as far as I understood and the slave receivers get the same access as the key is shared on the network.

I couldn't care less honestly as I got and an HDMI switcher but another option would be 1 econet full package + 1 BeIN sports complete plan...

$15 + $25 for two tvs and the matrix switcher doing its job on the 4TVs. Rarely 3 TVs are on let alone 4.

I really really hope ECOnet is more stable than their ISP.

No 15$ without bein, i think you have to add 10$ per receiver
I just called them today and funny enough they've changed the packages and prices :

Wow--they really knocked up their prices. Still might do it, but going to renew my CCCAM subscription which expires next next week. Sucks that the sports I get are negligible thanks to interference on certain frequencies by internet guys and unavailability of decent sports channels on hotbird after the fall of sky italia (use a closed system like osn, etc).
Kareem, I am using an IPTV provider, PM me so I can tell you the name instead of advertising here. It's 9$ a month and it has every single package you can think of.
[What is your internet speed and how much bandwidth do you consume per month ?
Well FTTX should be there in about 5 months so by the time I move to my apartment I'll be willing to subscribe for a 1TB quota @ 80mbps assuming I'm only 150m from exchange.

Yes, they bought cablevision, there is no more competition.

They add a lot of new channels mainly the ones that was on bein subscription, they add 30$ per year without the french package.

But I don't get it, why there's a category for french channels is beyond my understanding. I mean seriously ? lol
