I finally cut the cable, questions...
Finally cut the cable after bill went over $250 a month for crap I never watch.
Scumbag Comast still hitting me with $95 a month on 500 speed Internet. It is what it is...
I get Netflix, Apple, Prime and Max which cover 95% of what we watch.
Just looking for the locals CBS, NBC, ABC and Fox for football.
Tried two antennas but they dont work where I am located without a major project going up on the roof or attic.
Any decent 4k options for the locals?
Thanks!

At least with my Vsee 6 plus, if you get a program, usually VOD stuff buffering etc, you can switch servers with the box. When a program is buffering or stopping, hit the up arrow or menu on the remote and options will pop up. You will see a list of a few different servers. Just move to a different server and click.

That's the best VPN out there and the fastest. You can get content from other countries when you use foreign servers, which in nice. You just need to come back to the US to get most sports and live US content.Xramfan wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 12:21 pm Just discovered this last night. I still have much to learn.

I’m so tech dumb I have no idea how this works. I did see you can pick nearly every region in the world if you want to but I had no idea what that was about other than asking me which region I lived lolRabidraider wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 12:49 pm That's the best VPN out there and the fastest.

The manual is really limited to mostly setup stuff. I find Youtube tutorials my saving grace.Xramfan wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 1:04 pm I’m so tech dumb I have no idea how this works.

Vsee box batting zero so far. “Program temporarily unavailable” for any game I click on.

I think there was a bit of operator error on my part as well. Raiders game was televised in my local market but was delayed because the previous game(Saints) went into OT. That may have messed with the Vsee NFL channel on my end. Another friend of mine locally told me he went to the Red Zone on his Vsee and got the Raider game immediately. Going LV local would have also been a good move. As it was, as soon as the Saints game was over, the Raider game came on just as they were about to score.Rabidraider wrote: Sun Sep 13, 2026 2:16 pm I got every game on the NFL app except the Raiders game..

Just a bit of a learing curve on my end
