    Hi. I have been using my Samsung Galaxy S 2 for a couple of weeks now and one of the things that really excited me was the ability to watch the football and hurling live at www.rte.ie/live. However recently I've not been able to do this. With a little investigating I realised that I can still watch the news live and so on but I cannot watch any video or stream listed as "Ireland Only". So for some reason rte.ie thinks my phone internet connection is coming from abroad.

    So how do I fix this, if it can be fixed.

    A click on the obscurely titled "FAQ" reveals

    I'm in the relevant territory and I can't access the service. Why?
    If you are unable to access the service, you should contact your ISP to report the issue. You require an IP addresses that identifies you as being located in the relevant territory to access the service. If your ISP requires any further information, they can contact RTÉ.ie at the following address: onlinetechs@rte.ie. The ISP should include their Autonomous System (AS) number with any correspondence.

    Basically they don't have the IP registered as being irish. In spite of their advice I'd recommend just sending Rte the ip address range and letting them sort it.

    Who are you with ? Hopefully 3 with all you can eat data otherwise prepare for bill shock.
