Like are you using laptop/pc/phone and are you hardwired or wireless?

Sounds like you made the mistake of using Edge though!

I was 'hardwired' after 35 minutes of trying to get anything.

I have one of those latest and greatest routers.  Even so I plug my laptop directly into my provider's router hub using a Cat 5 or 6 cable.  I find I can increase my internet speed significantly by doing this. 

I have actually run a Cat 5 cable from our provider's router hub to my son's bedroom so that he can have the fastest speed possible for his internet speed.

I have actually run a Cat 5 cable from our provider's router hub to my son's bedroom so that he can have the fastest speed possible for his internet speed.

All good advice, and just by way of addition, I had the same issue with needing Cat5 hard-wire conns to the TV,PS3, etc, etc in the family room, which is on a different floor from the Office where the main router sits.

To overcome this I bought this item:  https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Powerline-Pass-through-TL-PA9020P-KIT/dp/B01H74VKZU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1502032925&sr=1-1&keywords=TP-Link+AV2000+Powerline+Adapter+Kit%2C+2-Port%2C+Gigabit+w%2F+Power+Outlet+Pass-through%2C+up+to+2000Mbps+%28TL-PA9020P+KIT%29 (https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Powerline-Pass-through-TL-PA9020P-KIT/dp/B01H74VKZU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1502032925&sr=1-1&keywords=TP-Link+AV2000+Powerline+Adapter+Kit%2C+2-Port%2C+Gigabit+w%2F+Power+Outlet+Pass-through%2C+up+to+2000Mbps+%28TL-PA9020P+KIT%29)  and it has proved to be invaluable. Looking to expand it further as to whether it might have additional satellite units to work with the same master box.

Additionally, I have also found a dead spot for both the wireless bands (2.4 & 5.0) so I'm considering getting a Extender, like this: https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-AC750-Range-Extender-EX3700-100NAS/dp/B00R92CL5E/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1502033132&sr=8-2&keywords=wireless+extender (https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-AC750-Range-Extender-EX3700-100NAS/dp/B00R92CL5E/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1502033132&sr=8-2&keywords=wireless+extender)

I would suggest that anyone having issues with their wireless signal look at using a wifi strength detector to determine if there are dead spots in the house. These are available for all smartphones. This the best I have found for Android Phones: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer&hl=en (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer&hl=en)

Hope this might assist with the issues surrounding getting GJ each week.

I really don´t understand the problems some are having. Last season I had buffering problems on the 90 min replay. I put this down to my low download speed of 3.5 mps as I have to use a relay airwave broadband service living in inland Spain where we don´t have a landline.
However this season , so far, I have had no problems at all. The volume & quality of the GJ live commentary has been top notch. I viewed the 90 mins & it was not interrupted once. The picture quality was better.
I am using the same laptop, router etc as last season.
It remains to be seen if there will be problems at away games.

I definitely think the club has improved things on their end this season.  Especially the quality of cameraman recording the game.

No expert on modern technology, but to repeat what I said earlier, my problem was that it didn't work using internet explorer but it did last season even though I got the same buffering problems as you while watching 90 minute replays. Skygo doesn't work on Chrome but does on internet explorer, so maybe Fulham TV have changed something since the end of last season, has anybody received the commentary using internet explorer?

I use explorer, Safari, Chrome and Edge depending on deivce and never had an issue.

Althought I never listen to the first game of the season so will only be able to comment on this season this weekend or maybe tonight
