Inequality Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 32 minutes ago, Seeking6 said: I bought it for Marquis Network and have extended it until December 6th for IU games not on regular free tv. After that...I'm going to get creative again because I refuse to pay $64.99 for essentially 2-3 games per month. The new cable plan I have is 1 gig internet and preferred TV package with phone for $160. I was paying $70 for Hulu plus $120 for the gig internet. Two year promotion for signing back up with the TV services. For my group, they use the internet more than anything. What I found though is, they like the background chatter of their favorite shows playing the same time they use another device. For the quick glance between text or whatever. Hulu eats at your data cap so they couldn’t do that as much. Both the wife and kid prefer Cable and Netflix over everything else we have tried. We have Prime just because it come with the membership but rarely do any of us watch anything on it. Im just along for the ride. They say they hate Hulu and want Cable back then that’s what I do. It’s much easier that way lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It worked great on my iPhone but I need to figure out how to get it on my tv. The issue I’m learning today is they are getting a lot of legal type pushback about their bundles!

Its not really that hard it’s just that my Samsung TV doesn’t have access to the app. Bought an inexpensive FireTV Stick and now I’m in. Go Hoosiers!

Okay so I started with a 1mb/sec DSL as my only option out here in nowhere! Even standard definition buffered. Decided to really cut the cable and rely solely on cell service which was about 4-6 mb/sec adequate for standard definition but that was about it! Still was able to watch the Hoosiers so I was happy. Well apparently there was a major upgrade to the system recently as the Hoosier/ NALAB game was flawless and last night I watched a streaming movie in HD! Did a Speedtest and now I have a whopping 60mb/sec! Talk about a difference! Praise the Lord! Edited December 14, 2020 by Drroogh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted December 15, 2020 Report Share Posted December 15, 2020 Question here gang. Does anyone run into trouble with Hulu going in/out? I had no other windows open on desktop, was watching IU game Sunday and it got to the point I ended up turning it off and just listening to radio.

If you’ve got a problem with your feed you may be able to change your settings to watch in standard definition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the fastest possible with ATT but maybe that's just not good enough. Oh well. Bigger concerns in the world I guess....but it just got annoying.

About to cancel because 1 no fast forward and 2 they put B1G on a premium sports package that I didn't realize. Thankfully I can jump on Fox sports go with my dad's directv password.

You could also get DVR with your Amazon Fire or whatever device you use. Hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 So.... in the continuing evolution of technology, yesterday I set up a T-Mobile Home WiFi router. (I believe ATT and Verison have similar systems) Now this is not a solution for everybody, but if you live out in the sticks with few options? I'm the perfect customer!😁 It is a WiFi router with a 5G simcard in it for connecting to the internet. I ran a speed test first with my LTE phone and got a respectable 68mps. Then I switched over to the WiFi connection and got 283mps! Now I can finally stream in HD all I want. Something I could never do before! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 My cable has been cut and now I have no internet. Switched companies in January and they had to run a cable to the utility pole a few houses down a few feet into someone's yard. Been trying to get it buried but the work order is backlogged. So I noticed this morning the jerkoff homeowner snipped my cable and went through the effort of bundling it up and threw it in my yard. Pretty dang mad right now.

They are the one's responsible for utility easements. Your neighbor has destroyed ATT or whoever's property....but I'd find out about easements in your neighborhood,etc...every place is different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No excuse for that sort of behavior. A simple conversation could have easily solved whatever issues your neighbor may have had. As a society, we have to be better than this sort of thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
