Looking into dumping Dish at home and going to only streaming. At the same time, I would like something I can use occasionally in the RV. Of the three live TV streaming products, is there anything better or worse if using in RV also. I'm testing Directv Now this week and so far works well at home and has all the channels I would need. Will try Playstation vue next week but my wife will not be happy that Hallmark channel is missing, also they specifically state the service cannot be used outside of home. Not sure about SlingTv yet, but will give it a try also.
Couple of questions. Any recommendations on these or anything else? What kind of data usage might be expected if streaming a hour of content? AT&T has unlimited streaming for DirecTV Now over phone/tablet but not if hotspot connected to TV. Any way around this?
there are two types of campgrounds/RV parks that offer no-extra charge wifi...those that have banned or actively blocked streaming anything...audio, video, data, etc. and those that will. even if you find a park that offers pay-as-you-go wifi (Tengo Internet as an example) it would be considered rude and ill-mannered to stream video as doing that would essentially bring the network down to a crawl for everyone. most park wifi is designed for e-mail and very light browsing. if you must stream then consider an unlimited data plan from a cellular provider.
