But the key problem is still the streaming broadband. If you have a first class broadband service in an area with few users, it may work just fine. If not, you will either put up with choppy streaming at varying frequencies or adjust your viewing habits to miss the traffic.
Our broadband service was superb when we first got it. Not anymore.
There are sites where you can test your broadband to make sure you are getting the speed you pay for. If it is consistently below what you are paying for, call them.
We are on WideOpenWest. My hubby tested and found that our broadband was lacking. He called and it was corrected. It happened again and they sent someone out to our house. A squirrel had chewed the wires. Now ours is perfect for 50.00 a month.
