Satellite vs Cable on the road

If you already have cable, I suggest you look into Sling Box. We have been using this and receive everything on the road that we have at home including shows recorded on DVR. Sling Box sends the signal from your home to your RV via internet. You will need wifi. We use AT&T Unite hotspot for wifi when needed. It works great but we are usually able to get good wifi using WeBoost which boosts signals from the campground or other sources and makes them good, usable signals. If that doesn't work well, then we use the ATT hotspot. Another source we use is Fire Stick to watch Netflix and other apps. Also, we have Xbox which also uses apps like Netflix and Spectrum app (Cable app). It's good to have a backup plan or two (I hate missing a ballgame) and these are inexpensive in the long run and all are easy setup.
