Hi

Hope someone can help.

I downloaded bbc iplayer on to my mobile from bbc website. i usually connect to web on my phone through orange internet, but when i try to watch iplayer on my phone I get a message saying "please switch to wi-fi to watch this programme".

I called orange who suggested that i might be in a bad orange signal area, but this happens eveywhere even in a full signal area.

does anybody know how to resolve this??

Thanks in advance

    I think it maybe that iplay need a faster data through put than the mobile can provide with its internet connection. I remember reading a thread about this a few weeks ago and it only worked via wifi. . .
