Antivirus and Your Internet Provider

How to be a Cable Cutter

Recently, our television provider increased the cost of our service, leading me to struggle with continuing our service. We had been using this service for over seven years, without any real thought to services provided versus the cost.

I believe that there is a cost point to everything and when you come to the realization that, “Hey, that’s pricey for what we are getting” you start to look for alternative solutions. Well, we reached that with our provider.

We are a family that uses the “internet of things” so we have desktop computers, laptops, tablets and phones all connecting to our wired and wireless network. Adding television to this in-place network seemed like a pretty reasonable choice.

It was time to think outside the box.
