Once moving to antenna, many of us find plenty to watch on the subchannels. Cable companies often don't carry all these channels.
But don’t you need internet or wifi to get streaming? How do you get that without cable? You can use your wireless provider for streaming, correct?
My streaming device is a Amazon fire 4K stick. I upgraded the gigabytes on it to 128 GB and I love it.
Fantastic review and enjoying the channel. Good on ya! Great content.
Love ur review on Cutting the Cable Cord.
I am a streamer but I enjoy hearing ur views on cutting the Cord with Cable.
Superb advice.Great insight ..thanks
I really appreciate your knowledge and guidance. I feel like I can make an informed decision now and I am looking forward to saving some money. Thanks!
Love the guides, keep up the good work. In my small town, we are forced to buy OvisLink modems to have our internet connections. It's very very high priced monthly for high speed. Would love to cut the cord, so I'm looking at everything I need to do. I also live in a deep valley in Missouri, and I'm confused at what kind of antenna I need. I'm going to try an inside one first (upstairs) to see if I can get a good signal...rabbit ears do not work here. lol.
Thank you for your information I do wonder though if I should get an indoor antenna he said it’s best outdoors but you didn’t go over which intent is to buy for indoors if I needed one
love our Fire Stick and local free antenna service .
Good combo, Marshall. Thanks for sharing.
I use DTV Stream, I have a lifetime discount as I was a day one customer. I split the cost with two other people. 3 streams, no waiting.
Just found your channel. I'm looking into cord-cutting options for my parents and while I am tech savvy, I admit, there is alot that seems overwhelming. Great video, went ahead and liked and subscribed. Will be checking out your website as well. It sounds like there are plenty of options out there, it's just a matter of narrowing them down. My only concern, is that one of the 3 TVs my parents have is an old (very well functioning) tube TV. I'm not sure how well some of these options would work for that and it seems like (antennas, for example) you would need one for each TV that you need/want "x" channels on.
Get rid of the Tube TV and buy them a small current TV. They will save money by cutting the cord and on electricity. Also my LG has it’s own LG TV Channel lineup. I am sure the other major brands do also. That and a fire stick and HD Antenna and your tech knowledge to set up they will be in heaven.
I use basic youtube with ad block, anime streaming sites with ad block, DVDs from the library (and yes they get all the newest releases) , OTA antenna and Tubi on every device I own. Don't pay a single penny for streaming or live entertainment.
I want to be like you when I grow up. I can't wait to get rid of cable.
Thank you for the great video. I really appreciate it. I am a 73 yr old grandma whose husband is dying with aggressive dementia in the nursing home. I desperately need the escape provided by local channels (CBS, FOX, NBC, ABC...), but cannot afford a subscription to any Spectrum package. I just have their internet and wifi. I am trying to figure out what antenna might help meet my needs. Thank you so much for the input.
Super glad I just found your Channel.
I. Am. Saying bye bye to Spectrum TOOO...DAY!! Thank you 😊
I purchased a tp link ax1500 wifi 6 router and plugged it in to my fios line and it works perfectly... Returned the router no more rental fees..
Well done! I have always been happier with my own modem and router.
Thank you so much bc I'm trying to do this for my mom...like now. If you have any others FYI which I can read or should read I would appreciate it the FYI or link. Thank so much. 1st one to post and thumbs up this...
Thanks Mace. All of the tutorials are at cordcuttingreport.com
Awesome
Can you teach how to get Roku on your T V. I have the thing you put on your TV ( BUT) I don't know how to make it come into my TV so it will pickup the TV shows I want to see. I have free internet so that's not the problem. Not having the know how is the problem.

There is no Fios in my part of the city.
are you from boston
Excellent information many thanks.
Thanks, Lou.
So in order to cut the cord we need all the local TV stations, and VOiP (landline). We have a user who is not tech savy in our house. We already have Internet with T-Mobile. Anyone?
Great steps in your content! New ti your channel. I’ll show this to my husband. He’s the tv guy. I read books instead.

I use Verizon and they only give me 3mg for everything I do in my household is there any way I can get Verizon to increase my speed?
Please advise.
Are you using Fios or mobile?

Between Roku and the internet I get everything I need for free, I haven't paid for cable or satellite in years.
How do you get free internet??
@@nataliedeshow768 I didn't say I get free internet.
Stop it , Unfortunately We Can't Really cut the Cord.
