It is recommend that you use one of the three main network providers in The Netherlands: KPN, Vodafone, or Odido (formerly T-Mobile). All the other SIM providers piggyback off one of those three main providers, which sometimes results in disrupted streaming.
Please avoid using piggyback network providers as you are likely to experience disrupted streaming during busy network periods such as weekends. The following are piggyback providers:
Ben
Budget Mobiel
Hollandsnieuwe
Lebara
LycaMobile
Simpel
Simyo
Tele 2
Youfone

How much data do I need?
It is recommend that you purchase a SIM only plan so that you are not tied into a long term contract and you can cancel when the season finishes.
Depending on how many games a week you stream will determine the data plan you need. A 7 hour stream uses approximately 6GB of data. So, one stream per week requires approximately 30GB per month.
