Looking for Advice

Hello All,

I am new to this forum and considering dropping Cablevision for DirectTV. Is anyone from the North Brunswick, NJ area using this service or is anyone aware of how well it would work in this area?

Thanks for your help!

If you have an unobstructed view to the southern sky you should have no problems you can sign up and then DirecTV will come out and verify if you can receive service.Good Luck!.

We dropped cablevison and love Directv. I received all my equipment free. The picture quality is even better. I was always afraid of the dish on the house and wires all over. They hooked up a swm dish and used all my excising cable . We also live in NJ............

I have cable for internet and qwest for phone no big deal......they try and tell you it's better to
bundle but you don't have to

If you have all 3 Cable probably gives you a discount which you may lose if you drop the TV service.

If you go this route, there's a pretty good chance that they'll have to run new cabling for the satellite receivers. Cable modems and DIRECTV often don't play well together on the same cables in the manner that Flair3000 suggests.

That or have a new coax run for the Internet and use the existing ones for the sat signal.

I got cable internet and when i drop comcast cable it raised internet $10. All my DTV receivers are using my existing cable lines, except for my youngest daughters room (she's 18 months) where she dont need tv and used that outlet for internet modem/wireless router only.

This is the route that I would take.
