Game 1 on the Internet??

[ACF]

Bah... if you keep trying, it will work after some attempts. However, right now it's unwatchable, it lags a lot. What a disaster. I'm moving for an "unofficial stream" and try to chat with the support crew later.

Can't find any "unofficial" streams.
Forget it. What a disaster. I might
as well go to bed now, I've nothing
left to do

I sent an email to rayv with my complaints. Got very little in the way of a response, however, they do claim that it will be fine from now on. We'll see. Read below:

Dear Chris,

Thank you for your request.

We're very sorry but due to the very high traffic, our site unexpectedly
crashed and has been resumed after an hour.
We hope  to fix all for tonight.

Our deepest apologies.

I got the exact same e-mail from them. Anyway, it started working okay by the middle of the Spurs game and it was fine till the end of the Rockets game.

Chris, about this:

What's your bandwidth, may I ask?

Great to know it is working right now for the LAvUtah game (sarc) These people are so incompetent!

I usually download at 13Mbps, but it fluctuates quite alot. Can get as low as 3Mbps. But at the time I was trying to watch in HD. I stopped the game broadcast and did a speed test and was getting about 12Mbps.

AWESOME!

From the ILP website I now get this when I try to watch a game:

I have a HD playoff package which 'should' last til the end of the finals. Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. is happening here

The ESPN 360 feed worked just fine for me.  As long as the games are on ESPN I'd say that's the way to go.
