@Marie+Temmink

It will affect streaming services, catch up , box sets etc but not the actual satellite transmissions

@Marie+Temmink not directly. Watching broadcast channels or recordings does not need an internet connection. Most other material is downloaded rather than streamed so is more tolerant of connection issues than a service like Netflix. The downloaded programmes will only start to play when there is sufficent downloaded to play to the end. If you download UHD movies over a slow connection under 10Mb/s you will be waiting many hours if not more than a day butbstick to SD and things are much quicker.
