    imo after a few months i can see why Netflix/Hulu would get old you would binge watch shows for weeks to the point you would watch everything you want...

    KODI running on a Raspberry PI II hooked up to the flat screen. Better than the Amazon Fire Stick

    Who set that up for you? @Aryeh_Tsaddiq

    OG that builds computers. I sent him some business so he hooked me up for the free.

    Oh OK those Raspberry's are not easy to setup if you don't know what the hell you're doing.

    That's what he said. But he hooked me up. It runs great and I use it as a computer when I'm not using Kodi.

    I only have the modem for Wi-Fi only. I connect to the internet through it. No need for an additional bill of high speed. I use Rokus on all of my tv's through it. Check with your cable provider. There is a difference between high speed internet and Wi-Fi.

    You must have a modem/router one piece unit .....the modem brings the internet signal in and the router puts out the wifi to connect to the internet wireless

    You can save like $10 a month on your cable Internet bill if you buy your own modern/router instead of using theirs ......

    I know cable is good quality in hd and all but they fraudulent with their prices... This works for me just fine... Some streams are good some are not on the kodi but the funny thing is there is endless streams just a lil patience and that's it you save bills that's what I see

    Are any of you worried that if cable does die the Internet would go up

    i had an idea... they should start a "pick your channels" package.. have customers the chance put pick the actual channels they want.. like a "pick 50 channels for 60 dollars" (premium channels of course a little more).. and if you get the package with Internet you just add 20 dollars to the bill.. and you could "switch out" channels for a fee.. (say you dont watch nba tv because the season is over you can switch it out for MTV or something)... I think they would make a killing off that..


    Sounds good in theory, but all the cable companies would do is raise the price for the packages.


    Basically, make it so high that you'd be better off just going with one of their normal packages.
