Ok, so I have installed the router and have Anytime+ now. Couple of questions:

- I assume as some of the films are over a gb, that I can download it over night by selecting the "record" option?
- Any risk that any family member will select anything that is chargeable in this section?

IIRC you can set security on Sky Box to control purchases ,as Anytime +goes through their systems as a no charge upgrade I would hope
that it is integrated and same controls would apply
No idea how though as I trust the wife

Yep - its under Parental | Other | Spending Restriction and set to ON
Regarding downloading films, only the first few minutes are needed and the rest is streamed. Or you can just leave it overnight.

Cant set it. Under parental only hide adult channels and pin setting. No option for anything else.

I have a 2.5mbps connection and its hopeless when it comes to HD Films, there normally over 4gb and it takes an age to download them.

I have it set up to run through a mini pc I built to sit under the tv.

So now when I want to watch things like Game of Thrones I can get it from sky
