I know this is bad but I don’t have a smart TV and my Wifi isn’t very good out here in the sticks but Directv worked great. The way I read this thread I would need to make improvements to watch the Colts. Pucks service would be the cheapest I gather, but I would need a much better WiFi and a smart TV? I know I’m old. Lol

You don't need a smart TV, you just need a Fire TV Stick. You can get them on Amazon or eBay for less than $30. Your TV does need to have an HDMI port and you do need decent internet, but it doesn't have to be super fast. I got the service at the condo we stayed in this winter in Florida and the internet sucked, less than 20mbs, sometimes not that fast and I had very few problems with it.

Puck, do I need to set this up with you or can I call this 3 Rivers Communications myself?

Pretty sure you can just call Ashley at 3 Rivers and tell her your from Coltfreaks. If that for some reason doesn't work let me know, will get ahold of Puck. But I am sure that is all that is needed. :cool:

It works great

Yep pretty much all correct. If you want to add additional TV's it is a lesser price for the extra TV's but not 15 each. You can watch it on as many TV's as you want. Just can't watch more TV's than your account allows at one time. So 1 TV and 1 phone at the same time you need 2 connections. 1 TV 1 phone can watch one or the other but not both at the same time

We have added a couple of more services besides ViewTv so there is even more movies series etc. Not sure what that cost is. Ashley loves View Tv so she just assumes everyone loves it.

As far as NFL football. yes you can look for the local stations in that area or use the NFL section that shows every game

Firestick is easiest. You can also use your smart TV or any android box. I actually think we can now do appletv box. I have a Nvdia android which is more expensive but has a larger processor. Most people get by perfectly with the firestick. And you don't need the 4K But the 4K movies are pretty cool

You can use your service to your smart phone ipad and watch it anywhere as long as you have internet.

Legality? Don't record it. and you'll be fine.

I'm sending you a private message because I would like to add the service in September, when the Colts start playing.

This is the gist of my PM to Puck ....... I'm posting it here because it may contain some frequently-asked questions that perhaps Puck can answer here for everyone to see ......


**************************************************


1) ) I just cut my cable chord, and now have ROKU for my living room TV ......


A) ) Is that all I need to do, add an Amazon firestick to my second TV in my bedroom ???


B) ) Of the thousands of channels that I will be getting, will it be easy to sift through and get the ones that I want (such as Lifetime Movie Network, the ID channel, and ESPECIALLY the Colts games) ???


C) ) Does the thousands of channels include ESPN, Fox Sports, TNT, TBS, the MLB network, and the NFL network ???


D) ) Can I keep the services for 6 months out of the year when the Colts are playing, cancel them in the off-season, and then re-subscribe the following season ???

C&O...

A.) Whichever TV you want to use Puck's service on, use an Amazon Fire Stick on that TV. Like in my house, I've got one Fire Stick downstairs with Puck's service (because that's where I watch sports) and four other TV's in the house still have Roku's.


B.) The most time you'll spend digging through channels is the very first time you look them up since they're categorized (locals, networks, premium, etc.) and alphabetized. Once you find the channels you frequent, you simply hold down the select button, add it to Favorites, and they'll consolidate.

For example, if I want to add Houston's local channels... Locals menu is alphabetized first by state, then by city. So start scrolling through every single NBC, CBS, FOX, ABC channel starting with AL-Birmingham all the way until you get to TX-Houston (it's a lot), add those channels to Favorites and you never have to do that kind of digging again.


C.) Yes, all of them.


D.) I'll let Puck answer for sure, but I can't imagine that's an issue. One of the best things about cord-cutting in general is getting away from contracts. Just about all streaming services are month-to-month.

Very true. I anticipated that I'd keep it for football season... then I realized I could watch any MLB or NBA game... and even if I didn't watch those, this basically has all other streaming services combined into one.

I'd have it in every room and cancel Netflix and everything else if it didn't have porn so easily accessible. I can't have kids stumbling across that.

The porn is optional, you can just ask Ashley to remove it.....
