1 Channel/PrimeWire latest


A 1Channel update is currently being tested before being deployed.  The first thing that you will notice is a new launch icon as above on your TV screen.  The new software will automatically update for you in a few days.

On November 21st UK ISPS - BT, Sky, Virgin Media, O2 , EE and TalkTalk began blocking websites including PrimeWire (formerly 1Channel).  By November 23rd UK users were accessing PrimeWire as "normal" through proxy servers.  There are two proxy servers currently being used to access PrimeWire through the UK ISPs; http://primewireproxy.co.uk and 1channel.occupyuk.co.uk

Instructions on using these proxy servers will follow shortly. Our initial testing indicates that interfacing to the current proxy servers work reasonably well but is not 100% perfect.  Once a server (i.e. Putlocker) has been selected to view content things works just like before because the proxy server is no longer being used.
