Took me a while to figure out my son wasn't "backing out" to exit, just shutting off his TV. The system seemed to think that connection was still on. BTW, I'm hardwired with 1 TB service so speed is not a problem.

I have found it reliable enough to replace SlingTV. Like I said, I do occasionally have problems with live TV channels, but I find it to be rare, at least for me. I seldom if ever have problems with non live programming, like movies or series. For the price of the service, having access to all those movies, series (nearly every series ever made), and sporting events it is well worth it! I have been watching Live on Patrol on Reelz the past few Friday and Saturday nights with no problems at all. I probably don't watch as much TV as a lot of people, so maybe if I watched more I might experience more problems? But for me this service works out great, I'm a satisfied with it's performance.
