Recently, I was contacted by an elderly customer who had purchased a €90 device online. This device was advertised as providing complimentary access to television channels from around the world simply by connecting it to their television, similar to an Amazon Fire Stick, allowing them to enjoy "free TV channels" for which television operators typically charge a monthly fee. He believed it was such an advantageous offer that he bought 2 units. However, upon receiving the package, he was unable to operate the devices and reported that the instructions were unclear. Consequently, he logically assumed that, as a television engineer, I would be able to assist him. Unfortunately, this appears to be a fraudulent scheme.

In a fortunate scenario, a purchaser might only lose the €90 if the device is inoperable. However, if such a device is connected to one's internet network, there is a potential risk of unknowingly receiving an infected device. This could then grant unauthorised access to the home Wi-Fi network and other connected devices. Furthermore, personal credit card details could be compromised.

Please remember, if it sounds too good to be true it usually is

Found this on Amazon.ie! It's probably not winning any awards, but hey, for €150, it's perfect for the toy tsunami zone (sticky fingers welcome!), the guest bedroom or a GP's waiting area. And it's smart too 😉

I've put my money where my mouth is and signed up for the Starlink Residential Lite package at €35 per month. I tested the speed and in average got 216 Mbps download and 9 Mbps upload – not too shabby at all 😉. Now I'm just waiting for a proper sunny day to set up the Starlink dish more permanently. I've already cancelled my EIR broadband, and they weren't too happy about it at all 🤣.

Starlink in Ireland has a new €35 per month package. It's a 30-day rolling contract with unlimited data. Importantly, there's no annual April price increase. While it might not be ideal for very demanding gaming, it should be more than sufficient for regular internet browsing and streaming.
Just wanted to let you know 😉

It has came to my attention recently that some tellies and set-top boxes have lost picture but kept the sound on certain channels.
There’s nowt wrong with your dish, decoder, or TV—it’s just down to a frequency change.
Try a satellite auto-scan, and if you’re still stuck, give me a call and I'll book you in.

I came across a 32" Toshiba Vidaa TV at Harvey Norman for €199. It's a great little HD-ready TV—while it's not full HD, the picture quality is still crisp and clear on a screen this size. It includes built-in Saorview and Satellite TV tuners, so there's no need for amy additional set-top boxes. This keeps things simple and tidy - everything just under one remote control.

As a smart TV, it has popular apps like Netflix and YouTube pre-installed, making streaming effortless. I do like that the stand is centrally placed, so it’s likely to fit snugly on most old TV tables.

At this price and with these features, it’s perfect for a bedroom, kitchen, or guest room—a practical and affordable choice.
