How to watch sattalite channels from other countries e.g. India, Vietnam, Italy, China, Japan and so on using IPTV over the internet in Australia

Considering Australia is home to a very large number of immigrants from all over the world this topic comes at time to time. Earlier I used to write small notes around how we could access satellite channels from specific countries or providers. This time I thought of coming up with list of all the possibilities especially with IPTV. This list is just the starting. I will keep on adding more to this list. I will refrain from adding those illegal media boxes that are floating around in the market. Please also note that whatever is on this page are my personal viewes about a service, you should research on your own for what you want to consider.

Would Tata Sky work in Australia ?

So far (at least when I am writing this) to my understaning TataSky could not work in Australia. How do I know ? Its actually pretty simple with the help of few web sites from the same provider. Step 1 : Find out the provider in our case its Tata Sky Step 2: Find out which satellites it use? http://www.lyngsat-address.com/tt/Tata-Sky.html http://www.lyngsat.com/Insat-4A.html Step 3: Now we know that Tata Sky uses Insat 4A for its transmission. Its time to find out footprints of this sattalite. Use the following link: http://www.lyngsat-maps.com/maps/in4a_ecc.html Step 4: In the footprints screen we could see that this particular satalite does not have footprints on Australia so we could not watch TataSky, UNLESS in future Tata Sky also broadcast on another satalite which has footprints in Australia (expecially the region you are in)
