Can't access BT Sport via PC

Dear BT,
I've tried twice now to resolve this via a phone call to BT - both times I got transferred to someone who could supposedly help, but the line went dead. I've also tried via email, which is supposed to get a 24 our response, but so far nothing. I have BT telephone for the past year + BT Unlimited Broadband (ADSL) for the past 3 months.
I tried accessing the BT Sport live streams (via sport.bt.com), but when I try I get an error message "You do not have BT Sport on this account yet. If you have recently ordered BT Sport, please allow at least 15 minutes for us to update your account. If you haven't ordered BT Sport yet, find out how to get it below.".
I then found I needed to have the BT Sport ordered, but when I try to put the order in it comes back with "You don't have BT Broadband on this account. If you're a BT Broadband customer please check the account or login details you provided." 
Well I do have a BT Broadband account and when I spoke to BT personnel they said it looks like there is still an order in progress for my account that has not completed and this is causing the problem. Unfortunately I can't seem to get to anyone to clear this order that doesn't exist.
Can anyone from BT please help me? I'd really like to watch BT Sport (it was one of the reasons I switched from O2 to BT rather than going to Plusnet). I'm fedup waiting on hold (or getting a callback after an hour), then speaking to someone for up to an hour and then losing the call.
Thanks in advance...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well after several hours listening to Mozart in BT Call Centre queues the problem has been resolved. The only problem is I am not sure how it happened!
I explained my problem to several different call centre staff who just got me to repeat the standard method - trying to activate my BT Sport via the web but with no success.
In the end I think one of the call centre people put in a manual order for BT Sport on my account and a little later I got an email from BT saying I had placed the order after which I could then watch BT Sport. On MyBT it now shows "I am ready to watch BT Sport".
Well I say I could watch it - I then started getting the 6025 error messages and went through the deinstall and reinstall of Silverlight which allowed me to watch BT Sport 1 once, but never again - but that is another story!

    If the drive can be accessed in local lan, then it can be accessed from internet assuming you have setup using one of the remote access methods.

    You don't have access to it to configure it via Time Machine? You lost me on that one, Time Machine is used for Backup.
    Here is a basic article on the first setup and what you should see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1178
    To configure Time Capsule you should be using "Airport Utility" 5.3 or higher that is located in the Utilities folder. You can tell if its version 5.3 because the icon will have blue lines instead of orange lines like the older versions. Since you are running Leopard 10.5.6 and you ran Software Update you are probably already running the latest 5.3 version.
    The light flashing amber means you haven't entered enough information so that it can get to the internet. Once you have that info entered the light will turn green.
    If your absolutely sure your CAT5 cables are good you can try a hard reset. I think you have to push the reset button on the back and hold it for 5 seconds or so until the amber light blinks rapidly, then when you release the button it does the reset then.

    Hope this helps! If not I would probably call AppleCare support or see if you can exchange it.

  • Firefox opens up, but, this morning, I can't access any links via Firefox. I can via Explorer. I prefer Firefox. Help!

    Firefox opens up, but, this morning, I can't access any links via Firefox. I can via Explorer.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Can not access home network via ipod touch, password entered  not accepted

    Can not access home network via ipod touch, password entered not accepted
    Trying to help my son set up his ipod touch to connect to the network and the password I entered is not accepted.
    1. Which password is required? I entered the password I use for logging into my router
    2. The home network is recognized, when selected it requires a password to be entered, but I am just not sure what password it is looking for to connect.
    I have not been able to find any information on this subject

    jersey0904, Welcome to the discussion area!
    You need to enter the wireless encryption password... not the administrative password for the router.

  • When can I watch BT Sport via the Sky Platform

    I have just sent the following message via the BT 'email us' form, but then I received an email back saying that it could take up to 10 days to respond . Given that I only have another 3 days to cancel my order (if necessary) I thought I'd try and find an answer on here, so here's the message. Thanks in advance...
    Please inform me of the DEFINITIVE date on which I'll be able to activate BT Sport through my Sky HD box.
    It is (in theory) already active for viewing online or via the app, but I am so far unable to link my Sky viewing card because of an "outstanding order" on my account.
    I have spoken to various members of your staff (both on the 'phone and via LiveChat, for which I have the transcript) and I am being given contradictory answers. These answers have varied as follows.
    1. I will be able to activate it as soon as I place the order for BT Broadband (so I placed the order without delay on 17/08/2012).
    2. I was then told this would be 24 hours after placing said order, so I waited.
    3. Thirdly I was told that I could activate it as soon as I give you my MAC key (so I did this on 19/08/2012 as a direct result of this advice, even though I could be charged by my previous Broadband provider for using the key within 7 days).
    4. When that didn't work I was told to wait 24 hours after using the MAC key.
    5. Finally I was told that I would have to wait until after my BT Broadband goes live on 10th September.
    Answers 1-4 have turned out to be false, and as I am now starting to lose faith in the answers provided by BT, I don't hold out much hope for answer 5.
    Considering that my reason for ordering BT Broadband was so that I could get BT Sport via the Sky platform, I am increasingly under the impression that I have been mis-sold the product.
    Could you therefore please tell me EXACTLY WHEN I'll be able to activate BT Sport via the Sky platform.
    Thank you

    Well, it's the 10th September, and my BT Broadband is finally activated; but still no BT Sport via the Sky box
    I've tried to link my Sky viewing card to mt BT account online, but I just get the message 
    "Good news!You've already got access to BT Sport. Watch online at btsport.com or via our Apple and Android apps. If you'd like to talk to us about upgrading your BT Sport Pack so you can watch via your TV please call us on 0800 731 0286."
    What? I don't want to watch on a computer or phone. I want to watch it on my TV.
    Anyway, I called the number, waited on hold for 26 minutes before being cut off.
    What is going on?

  • How can i access dmz server via public ip from inside?

    hi all !
    As shown in Figure，how can i access the server in dmz zone via public？
    i can access it via private ip 192.168.1.1 now,but i can't access it via 101.100.1.2.
    who can help me ?
    thank you !

    Hi,
    You would have to configure Static NAT from DMZ to INSIDE for the server in the same way you have done for DMZ to OUTSIDE.
    Basically in the following way for example
    object network DMZ-WEB
    host 192.168.1.1
    nat (dmz,inside) static 101.100.1.2
    This would enable your users on the "inside" to access the "dmz" server with the public IP address. And naturally only with the public IP address after this NAT.
    Hope this helps
    Please do remember to mark a reply as the correct answer if it answered your question.
    Feel free to ask more if needed

  • Can't Access Router Settings via 192.168.2.1

    I have recently changed modem/routers as my connection speed was increased recently and the old modem wasn't up to the task... The previous modem/router was preconfigured and I did nothing to it, however the new one requires settings be fixed by accessing it via a browser at 192.168.2.1
    When the technician came to check my line and set up the new modem, we encountered a strange situation. Despite being connected by Ethernet cable, my machine could not access the IP address reserved for the router.
    The reply is: "Safari can’t connect to the server.
    Safari can’t open the page “http://192.168.2.1/” because Safari can’t connect to the server “192.168.2.1”."
    We tried Firefox and the same happened.
    I have deactivated my firewall, rebooted, changed cables, restarted the router, got Safari to pretend to be Explorer, got the neighbor's dog to bark at it, everything except make a blood pact with the devil, and the two browsers on my machine think that 192.168.2.1 is an external address- which it isn't, and of course fails to connect.
    The technician used his laptop to configure the thing, so I can access the internet (obviously) but I must find out why I can't access the router/modem's settings, if only to find some logical reason for this illogical behavior.
    I've tried looking this issue up, and I get lots of bad wiring, wireless connection, windows proprietary shenanigans, but none that explain my situation.
    I'd appreciate it if someone could help me make sense of this.
    My setup:
    Computer Model Name: Power Mac G4 (AGP graphics)
    Model Identifier: PowerMac3,1
    Processor Name: PowerPC G4 (3.3)
    Processor Speed: 1.35 GHz
    Number Of CPUs: 1
    L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
    L3 Cache (per CPU): 2 MB
    Memory: 832 MB
    Bus Speed: 100 MHz
    Boot ROM Version: 4.2.8f1
    Sales Order Number: M7827LL/A
    Router: "2-Wire Gateway"

    Your advice did the job quite nicely and it seems this is the "natural way of things," but I was totally unaware of it since my previous modems were preconfigured and I never had to muck about with subnets and such things.
    What irks me is that this is basic, bare bones information that the Tech support people should have given me right off the bat. Why do they assume I have all the right numbers input into the Ethernet or PPPoE settings? They seemed totally perplexed that I couldn't connect, and frankly so was I- since my old Mac, as decrepit as it is, is still able to kick it with the modern way of things better than most computers I work with.
    If they had asked me if I had set the right IP's in the right slots, it could have been fixed in 2 minutes.
    Thank you very much for solving my problem, it saves me a lot of stress and confusion.

    He should be able to. But why can't he buy the eBook? Does he not have access to a Wi Fi signal?

  • Can only access one Mac via Back to my Mac

    I have Back to My Mac set up on my home Mac and two Macs at my office. I can successfully connect to one of the Macs at the office from home, but not the other.
    Both office Macs are running Mountain Lion, have Back to My Mac enabled with the same iCloud account credentials, and are on the same LAN/router/switch. My home Mac is running 10.7.5 and cannot be upgraded to 10.8 (it's a very old Mac Pro 1,1.)
    Because both office Macs are on the same LAN, those Macs can see one another in the Shared Sidebar in Finder, and I can Screen Connect that way, but I can't access the second office Mac from home for some reason.
    I've tried stopping/starting Back to My Mac on the troublesome Mac numerous times (as well as my home Mac), and followed the instructions elsewhere on Apple's site to delete all the Back to my Mac Keychains and recycle the connection, but it didn't help.
    Because it's a corporate network, I don't have direct access to the router settings (both work Macs complain that NAT-PMP and/or UPnP aren't on, but since I can still connect to one work Mac from home, that doesn't appear to be the problem.) Both Macs are connected exactly to the network the same way, though, so I'm confused as to why one Mac works while the other doesn't.
    Are there any other settings I can check or confirm on the problematic Mac? Am I incorrect in assuming I should be able to connect to two different Macs remotely using the same iCloud account? I just assumed all the Macs I have would be connectable via Back to My Mac if they used the same credentials.
    Thanks,
    R

  • I can not access to iCloud via safari

    Working in the iPad of my wife and my iPad, In safari on the iCloude page appears: configure iCloude on this device, (already did).....instead of the page to access to iCloud.  Thank you!!!

    Apple may have designed it that way but they missed a HUGE part of this. I have a work iPad (employer owned) that I would like to be able to access my personal iCloud account on. I understand that I can set up my personal account and my work icloud account on the iPad, but I do not want to give my employer access to everything in my personal account. I obviously do not mind if they read emails or other personal stuff I access via their iPad, I just do not want to give them full access to my entire account. All I want to do is be able to check email occasionally (which is permitted by my employer). Apple needs to allow access to iCloud via a browser on the iPad and iPhone. There are obviously other reasons for this - ie. do not have your iOS device with you and need to check email from someone elses fro whatever reason and there is not a computer handy. What is the value of blocking iOS access to iCloud via a browser? For the life of me I cannot see the value to wanyone - including Apple for doing this.
