Do you live in Porches?

I'm looking for anyone who lives in / owns property in Porches, who can advise me what sort of internet download speeds they are getting, and who their ISP is. I only need to know this for properties where there is a fixed line, no dongle / 4G speeds please. Thanx.

Re: Digital TV

EMM, what I was saying is that twin tuner TVs were available at least as far back as 2009, when I bought for my personal use. RB however, seems to have chosen to buy - around the same time - analogue only TVs for it's owners.

Re: Digital TV

It's not Portugal going digital - they did this some years ago, see below - it's Rocha Brava's internal distribution network going digital. As is said in the detail copied from Wikipedia, Portugal has been digital for 2 years. If, as Jeremy says, assuming TVs with digital tuners were available for s...

Digital TV

Has anybody else received a communique from RB about the big analogue switch-off? Having replaced the TV a few years ago to the one RB suggested (even though it was more expensive than a comparable one bought locally) I'm a bit annoyed that RB is now saying that the TV they pushed is not suitable fo...

Re: Villa needed in September

Have they been to CVO before in this sort of accommodation? Frequently...

Price is less of a concern than spec.
