So, I pay the equivalent of a mid sized car payment each month for Comcast/Xfinity cable (internet, TV and phone), and I'm looking to change that.
Some requirements and info:
Some requirements and info:
- Must stay with them for ISP because there is no good alternative
- I need a landline VoIP, since I have a monitored security system (that I completely own)
- I'd like to reduce the amount of equipment I rent from them. Stupidly, I still rent a cable modem.
- I have a roof mounted antenna about 30' up and can pull in over 20 OTA stations
- I have 4 TVs, not sure which ones have Clear QAM tuners... I think all of them do.
- Who provides VoIP service in the US these days? I used to have Vonage but don't even know if they're still around.
- What kind of cable modem should I consider getting?
- I have Amazon Prime, but don't currently have Netflix (would probably get that). Any other recommendations for content?
- If I keep some kind of basic cable from them, how to mesh with my OTA antenna? i.e. - a switchbox?
