Yes, does anyone know if there's a live internet stream/feed available? It would be fantastic to see it but I have no idea if it'll be shown anywhere. |

You can subscribe here, but due to some content distribution agreements, they can't provide feed to the U.S. http://www.talfazat.com/en/video-player/dubaisportchannel/ http://www.talfazat.com/en/faq/#4 I'm my case, I'm outside the US, but I'm at work so not an option for me either. |

Proxy Spoof First find a proxy address in the US. Here is a proxy list website: http://www.digitalcybersoft.com/ProxyList/fresh-proxy-list.shtml . Next on either FireFox or Internet Explorer go to Tools > Internet Options > Network Settings > Manual Proxy Configuaration/LAN Settings and manually enter in the proxy that you selected from the above list. The number after the colon is the port address. So for example, if you chose "128.232.103.202:3127" from the above list then enter "3127" into the Port Number box. and "128.232.103.202" into the Proxy box. OR if you have FireFox download this Add-On called "SwitchProxy". With this add-on you can you enter in the new proxy number much more easily than going through the internet connection settings and you can turn the proxy on and off easier too. Once you download the add-on, using the tool bar click Add > Standard > Give your Proxy a label (e.g."UK") and then enter the proxy and port number. |

http://www.lyngsat-address.com/df/Dubai-Sports.html lists 3 satelite connection on DISH. I don't have DISH and I don't know what those codes mean. Does anyone with DISH know if it comes in? |

Does anyone know Arabic and can tell us if the Dubai Sports Channel has any internet feeds? http://www.dmi.ae/dubaisports/home.asp |

The DishNetwork Channels listed are located on in different satellites. Echostar 1 is located at 148°W and it is a mirror of the 61.5°W (Echostar 3). Both give coverage to the east and West in the US. To receive those channels you have to have a paid subscription to the international package (asian, middle east, Japanese, Brazilian, Saudi, etc. channels). |
