TVAnts is a client which is pretty easy to use. Everyone can use it, it's fully in English, buffering goes fast and easy and opening of channels is also a piece of cake. It doesn't update it's versions that much, so you don't need to update it regularly.

Instructions:
Download TVAnts from 1 of the locations, and follow the installer closely. Then you're soon done.

Start TVANts, you can add servers but that isn't needed yet. Go to the search Tab to load the channellist, when you click a channel it will open in teh channels tab and you can see it's buffering. Click open to open the player window, or click stop to stop it, start to start a channel if it isn't running already. You can also lock a running channel, go to modify and press lock channel status. You can't stop the channel then unless you unlock it again.

In the charts tab you can see the upload and download speed, Performance gives other info and events displays warnings, it's like a logbook.

So after all this is easy to use.
