DSL pretty much sucks and expensive to get to the bandwidth levels you'd really want to do streaming. I was in the same boat for no TWC or alternatives until UVerse just became available. Of course...I'd just upgraded a Directv receiver and it locked me into another stupid 2yr contract this past January.

Grrr...

I'll be counting down the days to get off Directv and onto Uverse. I have At&t dsl...and I don't like.

Directv is awesome, simply put.

I have windstream DSL. Only 3 mbps. I've had some connectivity issues before, but they've been great in resolving them. 3mbps is plenty to stream netflix. No buffering.

I'm looking online at DTV now... they got like 5 packages ranging from $29.99 to $89.99...

Jase, you're an expert on packages, which one is best?

I'm thinking the Choice Ultimate ($44.99) would be best...

my wife just asked me today to look into it...

at current, we have TWC, RR (normal), and 2 DVRs - Got Showtime free for like 6 more months or so, but other than that, no premiums...

We pay like $128.xx a month...

Thinking about going DirectTV and keeping RR, or exploring other options...

Wooo... I got ATT to pull uverse to my neighborhood. When I called ATT they told me they can't o anything for me so I email to corporate and asked them to research the idea, they send me email back and told me they'll pull a cable to my neighborhood and I'll be their first customer in the area. Woo! $105 a month for 360 channels plus 18mbps internet. Plus I used a coupon I found online and they'll give me $125 gift card woo

shameless plug for me but but if you pm your email I can do a referral for you and we both save some $$

There’s no better time to refer your friends to DIRECTV.

Why? Because for every friend who signs up for DIRECTV you get $100 in bill credits. Refer just two friends and you’ve covered the cost of NFL SUNDAY TICKET. With your referral, your friends also save an additional $100 on top of their new customer savings. What are you waiting for? Football season is right around the corner. You can refer up to 10 friends per year for a total savings of $1000!

I'm about to move to a brand new neighborhood which does not yet have TWC or ATT Uverse services. So I have to settle for Satellite TV and DSL before they'll get there so I need some sugegstions.

Also, is DSL any good for streaming Netflix?

What phone company services the area? Verizon, AT&T, Frontier etc?

      Best way to Stream

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      The new (released today) FOX ONE app will allow you access to watch your Local FOX Station - similar to how the Paramount Plus app allows you access to watch your local CBS station It'll cost you $20/month for the privilege, but if you're having trouble accessing the over-the-air antenna for FOX, this could be an option to consider the new ESPN app will give you access to ESPN content, but not to the local ABC affiliate. A reminder: if you currently get ESPN via some TV provider (cable, satellite, youtube, etc) then you should be able to use the new ESPN app via your provider login, no additional payment required

      XL went to one of the worst teams in the NFL.  One that features a weak passing O and bad overall QB play on the season.   XL is getting way too much hate IMO.   He had an okay rookie season all things considered.   Very much on par w/ prospects that projected around the same area with him.   Panthers made a 2nd rounder a first round technicality for that contract.  XL also getting this weird kicker type blame for games.  XL somehow single handedly lost us games on one play.....and then we ignore the rest of the team that went about losing the game for 4 quarters.   Should he of caught the Philly ball? 100%.  The O and D still played like garbage that entire game.  Even after the drop, Panthers had two shots starting w/ a 3rd and 4 to convert.  They kept playing bad instead.  And even if we XL made the play....Philly would have had a minute and half to get into FG range to win it.  Who is banking on the Panther D getting that stop?  also, I am deemed Mr. Negative, yet here I am defending a no good dirty Gamecock lol
