I managed to get both my internet (vlan 35) and iptv (vlan 36) from my FTTH (Bell Fibe) service working on OpenWRT! Yay!

The only prob I have now is after a few seconds of switching tv channels the signal freezes. If I switch channels the same thing occurs after roughly the same amount of time.

I've also noticed at times that everything seems to freeze network wise (can't surf) and that I have to reboot my router to get going again. (flooding?)

It was suggested to me that it must be a multicasting issue, however I can't see what the issue could be.

Any ideas?

/etc/config/igmpproxy (I also noticed there's a /etc/igmpproxy.conf file. Is that file being used for anything?)

config igmpproxy
        option quickleave 1

config phyint wan
        option network iptv
        option direction upstream
        list altnet 0.0.0.0/0

config phyint lan
        option network lan
        option direction downstream
        list altnet 192.168.10.0/24        #same subnet with your LAN subnet

Note: I had tried just putting br-lan instead of lan and it didn't seem to make a difference.

    option dest_ip '224.0.0.0/4'
    option target 'ACCEPT'

I also added this line to /etc/sysctl.conf

net.ipv4.conf.all.force_igmp_version=2

Ideally I'd like both the computers/wifi/etc and receivers to all be on the same network.. but I think that'll just cause more issues. Right now the receivers hooked up on ports 3 and 4 get 10.x.x.x ips assigned to it by my providers DHCP server (vlan 36). My internet/wifi/etc is on ports 1 and 2.

Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

igmpproxy is multicast forwarding to lan, so basically udp://@ works on lan and can watch iptv on pc, I recommend to use udpxy for that.

igmp version depends on service provider, test whit 1-3 versions

and maybe try different openwrt versions

Thanks for the quick reply!

I'm using the receivers provided by my provider (Bell Canada).
I don't think I can view iptv from them on my pc too right? or can I?
If I can't, I'm guessing udpxy won't make a diff? (never used/set it up before)

I'll try what you suggested and try other versions of openwrt and see if that makes a difference.
Do I just have to change the value of net.ipv4.conf.all.force_igmp_version=X to the version I want to use?

Thanks
