I need some advise from users.
I got sick of Comcast extracting their monthly pound of flesh and cut the cord. Now, Netflix gets $7.99 for all the shows we can stand...almost.
We need to watch our favorites on ABC, etc. Problem is, we can't get them to stream properly (if at all) without long periods of buffering or, worse yet, constant starting and stopping.
Obviously, we need more bandwidth, but how much? The Sony Blueray player I bought says I need 25 megs. The guy at Best Buy who sold it to me says 15 megs is enough. The people at AT&T claim I can stream Hi Def with 6 megs, which is as fast as they can provide via DSL to my location.
I like the price of DSL, and know it won't slow down like Comcast cable did, but is 6 megs enough, really? Also, I'm limited in how much I can use each month. I have no idea how much I need because Netflix does such a great job at 3 megs due to the system they use.
We watch several hours via Netflix every day, and about 2 hours of network.
Any advise would be a big help...
