Internet

Warning- Read the footnotes

Unfortunately plans for TVInternet have been shelved.

TeleWest are running trials in North-East England, to test customer response to Internet Access via the Set-Top Box.1

If you want a preview of how the Internet will work through your box, then click here, your box will reboot and when you press TV and then Interactive you will notice Internet as option 9.2



Tools

This second tool is also for the internet, but can be used throughout h2g2, it will enable the back button and by pressing blue you can also set favourites. This can be installed by pressing the tools option.


Links

The following links can be accessed through the Set-Top Box even with the firewall3 up.

  • BBC
  • CNN
  • Digitiser
  • ITN
  • Teletext
  • Yoomedia

  • If you have anymore links that can be added, please leave a message.


    Have a look behind the scenes here.
