Before you do anything, I'd start to look for a cheaper provider that will give you enough bandwidth to stream a couple HD movies simultaneously.


This isn't America we're talking about here, where monopolies don't exist and you are forced to choose from only 1 or 2 providers for things like cable, internet, electricity, etc.

Wait.......
Baton Rouge is Cox or shitty dsl from shitty att. There's no other choices. Where the hell do you live where you have choices?

I've read through this thread and it's been helpful but a lot of information overload for me lol.

If someone could please help, as I'm trying to do this for my dad as he's getting up there and wants to continue saving any money he can and bc he hates cox cable bc of their bullshite disputes.

I know he will need the antenna but I'm wondering what else he should get. He likes to watch a bunch of different sports (except soccer and tennis), news programs and maybe a couple of others like Discovery, History, Nat Geo and things of the like. What hardware/software should he invest in?

He currently has cox cable and internet and wants to just get rid of cable. He would want it to work on 3 different TVs as well.

He also hates cox bc of their BS disputes and losing the channels if I didn't mention that.

I appreciate any and all help.

Damn. I live in Corpus Christi and there are at least 3 or 4 providers I can think of

Grande
Time Warner
ATT Uverse

That's just off the top of my head. I know Dish was doing an internet thing as well
