BT Infinity/ Kryptview

[Terry1976]

I am considering changing from vermin to BT Infinity (free sports channels)

Does the kryptview work well with BT Infinity using the BT Home Hub 4 router?

yep but remember if u cancel vermin contract they may cut ur tv service to, so no tv simples

[Terry1976]

Thanks for reply. Why would i need tv service?

What services do you currently get from Vermin?

If it's only broadband, then you might find that in the future you could be disconnected in the green box, which would disconnect everything.

you thought this out properly? u need a live cable feed from cabinet in street to view tv

[wgnrblay]

You need a live vm cable feed. Eg broadband.

[Terry1976]

Won't i get this from BT when i switch?

[ASEK]

Why on earth would BT provide a virgin cable feed?

i would step away from the Kryptview if I were you mate!

You will probably be OK for a while, as they won't physically disconnect you straight away. I left VM nearly 3 years ago, but I'm still connected in the green cabinet.

However, should anyone need to work on the cabinet for any reason, there's a chance that I will be disconnected.

So i would need virgin tv to use kryptview?

but if i cancel broadband and go to bt broadband i will recieve free bt sport right?

As a BT broadband customer, there are 3 ways to receive free BT Sports channels as shown here:-

Introducing BT Sport - Watch the top games with BT - BT.com

To use a Kryptview box you need a VM cable connection to the green cabinet by subscribing to one of their services, even if it's only broadband.

If you cancel your broadband service, as I did nearly 3 years ago, they do not immediately disconnect you from the cabinet, but there is no guarantee that you will be connected for ever. You could be disconnected at any time.

If you want to guarantee your cable connection you need to keep subscibing to one or more VM services.
