BBC iPlayer on Nokia E71 download problems

if any of you have had problems finding a download link whilst using BBC iPlayer on your Nokia mobile phone, try connecting to your home wifi then revisiting the BBC iPlayer app.
Looks like O2 stifle the bandwidth enough for the option not to be offered inside the BBC app.
Oh and you need to remain connected to the same cell site to get the authentication code before playing your download for the first time, so do so before a train journey etc. I'm guessing as you move between cell sites your phone is assigned a new 'ip' address, making identification to bbc impossible?... Just a theory.
