I have charter internet and cut the cable cord 3 years ago. I need it to watch football only. Agree! I cut out all tv 5 years ago and then ended up getting Sling TV last year. I could usually find a place to watch the big games but finally got tired of that so I ended up with this set up. I really don't have too many issues with Sling; charter on the other hand is a different story where I live. They have issues all the time!!

I had SlingTV but missed out on some big games last year. It worked well most of the times but was below standard definition on games and shows that had a lot of people watching (college football and Walking Dead always seemed to be blurry)

You really need a device with an Ethernet port (like Amazon Fire or Rolu) to have a good experience. Sling on the chrome cast sucked. It works great on my Amazon.

I have charter internet and cut the cable cord 3 years ago. I need it to watch football only. Its not going to cost you much to try it. It just didn't work for me. Like I said the only time that I had problems was trying to watch college football.

What are the details of your internet connection?

Since we cut the cord on Dish, I got it last year just for football. As some have stated it would occasionally have to re-connect but not very often. I cut it off early January and will be re-connecting it this week. No complaints here for $24.99 per month (that's including the $5 for sports package. I will add that we don't have the most reliable or fastest internet either but all together it performed to my expectations. I'm assuming you have windstream? I have a friend that has it on Windstream and it works fine for him. I have Charter and have been thinking about getting it instead of paying DirecTV. Winner winner chicken dinner. A lot of folks have problems with Windstream, its ok for me. Biggest issue is it goes out anytime it rains, and I mean anytime

Like I said the only time that I had problems was trying to watch college football. Well... Football is the only reason I have cable and the only reason that I would want SlingTV. What are the details of your internet connection? I had the fastest Charter Cable Internet that they offer and using a Roku 3 with an Ethernet connection. I think that they have problems when a lot of people are streaming. We could not watch any of the big games. It would stop in the middle of a play and say that it was connecting. Then when it did connect it would be like 5 minutes later. I think a lot of people purchased the sling for the same reason and they just can't support it when there are a lot of people trying to watch at the same time. All of the other times we watched it, it worked perfectly.
