We are new to streaming, how much internet speed do you need? Is 100mbps enough?

Television & Internet
 

We did exactly the same. Are very happy, but just like all the others YouTube keeps raising the price and dropping channels we watch. Still okay with this setup for now though.

yes
 

it is, but that presumes only one stream. 1080 works well down to 25mbs, that's what I have

You might want to consider putting up a roof antenna first to pick up the local network stations for free. Depending on your location and the antenna, you may get up to 60 stations. Many you will find useless or duplicate, but you will still have something to watch if the internet or cable goes down.

YouTube does keep raising their price, adding channels that we never watch. We wish there was a la carte at a much lower price. We only watch about 3 channels. One other problem with YouTube TV is the voice lip sync is off periodically when starting a stream on the Roku. That’s fixed by restarting the video stream. The channel guide to program your recorded programming is horrible with YouTube TV.

A couple of very useful additions is an Internet sensing power switch, available from the 5G Store online. That eliminates periodically manually power cycling your cable modem to reset it.

Another useful edition is a strong Access Point which provides a strong WiFi signal that covers your whole house and property. The WiFi that’s built into the cable modem works, but it’s WiFi signal is weak.

I love Xfinity. It's been great. I have Phone, Internet and TV

Beats me how one can say something is the best unless they have tried all the alternatives.

More than enough! Way more. I’m able to comfortably do 3 streams with 25 mbs.

I get 63 channels with an OTA antenna. Then I supplement by streaming Sling TV for another 50 channels. Total 113 channels. My cable bill is $44/mo using Sling. So here’s my breakdown: $55/mo internet from Century Link; $0/mo OTA Antenna; $44/mo Sling TV; $5/mo Landline phone VOIP from Ooma. Total communication bill: $104/mo.

Well I don’t know who has the best cable, but I guess that’s going to be an opinion. Of course the cable Co. will say they’re the best. I have Frontier & personally I don’t think it’s the best but I think it’s as good as Spectrum. All cable Companies start off with a very low rate & then every yr. it goes up. My cable & Internet is FREE but I do pay $5. For DVR & $5. for up grade TV channels. So my actual cable & Internet bill every month is $10.

How much is Utube tv and do you need equipment ?

Spectrum and YouTube TV
 

This is exactly what we have and have found it perfect for us. We were leery when we first "cut the cable", but it reduced our costs 30% and we have better options. One reason streaming YouTube TV is recommended is that you can put in any zip code and then get the local news and sports stations linked to that zip code- either a Villages zip code or you previous home's. Also, since we live in The Villages just part time, Spectrum only charges us $4.99/mo. to put all on vacation hold.

Century Link internet high speed $50/yr 4Ever

1080p Hi-Def will consume about 5 megabits per second. 4k (2160p) will consume about 15-20 megabits per second. This is "per stream". In other words, if you have two different sets on at the same time then double the bandwidth. Most people pay for much more bandwidth then they need.

YoutubeTV is about $65 per month. You need a "smart TV" or an internet streaming device such as Roku or AppleTV. There are others.
