We never buffer when streaming YouTube TV or Netflix.
When you have internet issues the first thing a provider will do is blame the problem on your modem and router, not their service. It may be a bit more expensive to rent in the long run, but wheel a problem occurs you can just switch out for replacement equipment. Since new technology keeps coming you’ll get upgraded if a switch out is needed.
