On a laptop. I was watching it with AT&T nation wireless plan (whatever they called it) in a restaurant. Only did it for about 10 min, nothing to do while waiting for my dinner to come.


I was referring more to handheld devices... PDA's or cell phones.

I wonder how long a fully charged battery is going to last.

Of course...this is unbelievable. I'm about to demand a refund for all the days this thing works half ***, which so far has been every single day with the black out problems and the 98% issue.

If it works for you at work, it's probably just because of the time of day. It freezes up in the evening when everyone is trying to watch it at once (as in when games are on).

Anyone able to pin point what this is? I don't have that issue but a friend using my account does.

Got it to work after about 15 minutes of refreshing.

Sadly, this is really my only outlet to watch my Jazz so I'll be a sucker and buy it.

Probably just server overload...... I can access it in the afternoons without problems, but when evening comes I got stuck at 98%........

Update:

11/8/08

NBA has made some changes to League Pass Broadband that should have eliminated the loading problem. In order to make sure you have the newest version of League Pass Broadband on your computer, please clear your cache before starting League Pass Broadband!

Any update on the NBALP (NOT ILP) working in Canada? And if so are we subject to a lot of blackouts?

maybe it's your internet connection? i've watched 2 games the past 3 days, one hard wire connection (right now) and one w/ my wireless network at home, & it's been as good as you can expect for being an online feed...

Hey I'm sure this has been discussed previously, but I really dont feel like reading through this entire thread... Why are so many games blacked out? Even ones that arent on national television?? I will be pretty upset if its like this all season long...

National TV, NBA TV, and your local teams are all blacked out. Nothing out of the ordinary and nothing different from the past.
