It must be your Internet, call and complain.

 

Seriously, if it’s unstable, I hope none of my customers sign up, because they 
will blame the ISP.

Yeah, I go to Roku for the on demand, but I have to Sling for some channels and 
Vue for others.  Be nice if DTVN was more stable.

Compared to SlingTV or Vue (or Hulu, HBO GO, etc.) DTVN has a long ways to go 
on the stability side.  I've had it around a month and while live TV has gotten 
to just a few stalls per night, on demand is still unusable. 

 

That said, apple TV for 3 months pre-paid means they have 3 months to make it 
work right?

Playing past episodes of shows is till dicey.  I will go to Roku for that for 
now.  I tried playing some episodes of The Profit several times only to have 
them quit in the  middle.  I like the video quality of the apple TV, but it 
still pauses now and then on live TV.  Being an early adopter I have patience.  
But it better be better than Roku/Playstation VUE in a year or it is history.  

 

DirectTV Now has the best guide.  On the PC it kills the show you are watching 
while looking at the guile.  On the AppleTV  it has the show playing behind  
the guide.  

 

I still go to Sling and then, but not sure I need it for anything.  I may have 
my HBO accounts coupled to it.
