SES will gladly launch new satellites (as they do for 19.2e) if there is still demand for them. That's not likely in Sky's case.

Not only is the potential viewing audience in these two offshore islands considerably smaller than on the European mainland, but it's also already embracing streaming to a greater degree.

Had all the same issues, they asked me to go out and buy an Ethernet cable to connect from my router to the puck to do a manual update. Bought it and said they'd ring me back, never did. Rang up again and had to hard reset it about 5 times as it kept freezing upon start up. Absolutely awful. Going to cancel it.

Sky changed the puck and we haven't had any trouble since. Why this couldn't have been sorted sooner I don't know, it would have saved me from writing such a critical report.
