Official WWE Network: Issues, Reviews, News And Notes *Spam Rules Apply!*

According to the main site, the reason the Xbox version of the Network won't work is because it's only available to those with a Gold Account, anyone using a free account can't use the Network. Bit of a joke if you ask me.

EDIT:

From WWE.com

I have xbox gold. It still does not work
 
I set it up on my computer and PS3. Haven't tried the PS3 yet, but I was having issues with the on-demand content timing out every 10-15 minutes on the PC, and having to reload the page. Could just be the high work-load on the servers, but was definitely on their end.
 
Me too, I was watching Harcore Heaven 97 and it was runnin ok until the 30 minute mark.Iguess it's all the craziness of the lauch day.hope ot works fine in the coming days.
 
This has all been just magnificent. Signing up was a walk in the park, plus I managed to loophole my way round it. I live in the U.K, but have a holiday home in Florida, so I just used that address.

The content has been outstanding. Granted it's not perfect, but it's only it's first day, I'd imagine in the coming days and weeks it will all be ok.

My only 'problem' is scrolling through the videos. It does take a while to kick into gear if you want to miss a match for example and you scroll through, it won't do it straight away, but as I said, it's the first day so I'll forgive them

THANK YOU VINCE!!!
 
as of 1:30 EST I have finally gotten onto the network! I went through internet explorer like someone else suggested and it said at first it didn't process bur when I checked my subscription it had my credit card info so check your subscription info on your WWE account before attempting multiple times.

I want to say I am slightly disappointed that none of the Nitros or Raws are available yet but thats to be expected, however I am happy that it looks like the content is based on first run, and not editing from like coliseum video or through wwe home video. ECW Heatwave 98 had all language in contact and watching WM6 so far it looks like some segments that were cut from VHS version to help allotted time made it back in its original first run so hopefully everyone enjoys this as much as I do.

I just watched November to Remember and they take out the F in WWF. I don't mind that though. Not even by a long shot. They also blurred the WWF flag after Dreamer lost, but that's to be expected.

I am having some streaming issues, but it's hit and miss. I just think it's the Network being so overloaded right now.
 
I subscribed easily now I'm trying to set it up on my xbox 360 I'll let you guys know if I have problems with it but has anyone tried to watch individual matches?
 
But yeah, I'm at work until 8 tonight and am hoping to sign up and start watching stuff then. All the stuff about lag and such I expected to happen with such a high amount of people joining at one time. I'm excited tho! I wanna watch old ECW PPVs, TLC tag matches, old classic WWE stuff and any combination of Kurt angle, Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero wrestling each other!

I think some of these shows were edited out during the WWE 24/7 days and they uploaded them like that instead of using the original source.Hardcore Heaven 97 also has some languague muted.
 
The WWE network uses similar technology as does Google Play, MLB, and other forms of online media. You don't own the content, you rent it. You pay $10 a month to rent the content on their servers.

As for the network, its a widespread outage at the moment.
 
There's no quality settings button to choose different quality like 720p, 480p, 360p for different internet speed, it seems to be automatic which I don't like.I wouldn't mind setting the PPV at 720 and wait a bit for it to load and then watch it.The on demand section I mean.
 
So I updated my Apple TV and the network was a surprise after reading everything that the deal was not finalized. So far it's working ok. Sign up took me almost 2 hours. Finally around 1pm I was in... Some shows don't load and it times out but most of the ppv and the program live in the network now runs smooth.. I don't like that when you want to fast forward you only see the time not the video at least that's how it is on the Apple TV.. I feel once we get past today it will run more smoothly!

A lot of the waiting comes down to what your internet speed is as well. I get 12mbps download speed. It could take awhile for others if they have a lower DL speed.

I have been able to start a PPV, fast forward it, rewind to a section without any buffering problems or waiting.
 
Finally got signed up, and it's streaming flawlessly on my PC. Buffering delays make it unwatchable on my ipad. Anybody else having that problem? Btw, does anybody know if there's a way to report issues to WWE? I'm really not complaining, but I would like it if we could share our experiences and help them get everything right.

I gotta upgrade my internet that's for sure, but still a settings menu will be fine.Can´t' believe porn sites have betters options than the WWE Network lol.

Why can't you believe porn sites have more options than WWE network? WWE Network is a niche market that is catering to a million or more.... almost everybody watches porn. And if they say they don't they're lying or fundamentalists.

I'm still having issues getting it to stream consistently on my PC, and I have 10mb internet. It will stream flawlessly for around 10-15 minutes and then it just shits out like I hit the stop button on it. Only does this on the on demand content, the live feed streams in full HD with no issue on buffering.

Yeah the on demand thing it's getting annoying and that's what I really care about, We all want to watch the ppv from beginning to end flawlessly.I guess its the overload b/c of the lauch date.I think we gotta tell all this feedback to WWE somehow in order to get an improved service.It´s just the first day so we should wait and see.
 
Kinda disappointed that you can't stream to the Chromecast from the app....I can open it in Chrome and cast the tab, but that's kind of choppy....hopefully this will be available sooner than later...
 
I signed up... took me hours trying on and off... my card has been charged and I can't access the network. So far, very disappointing.

This could have been better planned.
 
What are the dynamics of the 1 week free? It doesnt give me any option and it looks like I will be charged right away, id rather get the free week first tbh

No matter how much a site thinks it's ready, with any start up internet operation, it hardly ever goes as planned.

It's only going to get worse the rest of the evening.

You do get a free week, but you need to make sure you cancel it before the week runs out, or they will charge you for it. That's the catch and why you still have to put a credit card on file.

They have already charged most of us. Are they going to refund the money if I cancel before next Monday??

Did you make the mistake of hitting the wrong button? They had two separate entries for signing up. One was for buying it now, and one was for a week trial. Both required you to put your credit card in. The week trial is only there if you select that button/link.

My friend signed up for the free trial one and they didn't bill him. I opted to just sign up and waive the free trial, so I dunno. But I do know that he wasn't charged.
