When in the grid guide, arrow to the left to highlight the channel name. You’ll see about 24 hours of programming. Outside of that, you can search for programs about 2 weeks out using the search function. Click on the “+ add to library” and it’ll be added when it records. Sent from my iPhone...

Orbi is fine. I have personally used Google Wifi and Linksys Velop. The whole idea of a mesh setup is that transition from puck to puck is seamless as you go around the house. It’s always better to hardwire the access points for better performance if possible. If you can’t, each access point...

Ouch.... 15/month increase for people grandfathered at 35.... and it doesn’t include Viacom and A&E for people that rely on YTTV and Philo... so people with both most likely will still need both. Sent from my iPhone using SatelliteGuys

How do you guys know what the backhaul is for nearby towers? I have a tower close by, and for kicks would love to know who supplies the backhaul. Either there is a centralized database somewhere or have inside information? Sent from my iPhone using SatelliteGuys

It’s not just your wife and friends.. When we had the service, my wife couldn’t tell which episodes she watched or didn’t watch. The markings on the saved shows were hard to see sometimes. That’s one reason we don’t have it anymore. Because Philo lists all episodes available chronologically...

You can skip commercials with Philo. It has DVR functionality. You can save any show and it’ll “record” every episode that airs for 30 days. When viewing shows from your saved library, you can FF commercials just like any DVR. Commercials on VOD or live TV can’t be skipped, however. It’s a nice...

I’m grandfathered I’m at 35/month as well.. although I have it paused at the moment. I haven’t read anything that it’s for life. Unless it’s written down somewhere official, I wouldn’t depend on that price being good forever. Just my 2 cents. Sent from my iPhone using SatelliteGuys

I was about to ask the same thing... 43 TB? Geez. That’s hard to do. Sent from my iPhone using SatelliteGuys

If the plan you’re talking about is the same one I think you’re talking about, that plan requires you to be on some kind of social assistance program.. national school lunch program or supplemental security income. Low Income Internet Assistance for Families, Students, & Seniors | Spectrum...

7 years post merger. Charter didn't have a data cap before the merger either. They had a cap but it wasn't enforce and was removed from the fine print around 2014. Of course, that was before OTT services took off. Sent from my iPhone using SatelliteGuys

If your old router didn’t even have a 5ghz band, it’s most likely very old. You’ll see much better throughput with the new router. Sent from my iPhone using SatelliteGuys

True from an accounting standpoint, but another cost advantage that OTT providers have is support. There are no truck rolls.. there are no install costs. There are no equipment costs. I would venture to guess that support costs are a fraction of what Dish pays out. It’s also safe assume that...

YTTV doesn’t have HBO as an add on.. only Showtime and STARZ and those do have live channels. However, if you subscribe to HBO via Amazon Channels, you’ll get live channels through the various Prime Video apps on Roku/FireTV etc. You can also sign into the HBO Go app (not HBO Now) and get the...

It’s also is a pretty decent low power plex server if you have media on a NAS or external drive. Sent from my iPhone using SatelliteGuys
