My cable and internet provider is "C" company and also known as "X". I signed up with them about 2 years ago with a "promotional" contract for 2 years. Within these 2 years, the fee went from $96 to $120. I was told the multiple increases were allowed under the fine prints. When I found out upon renewal, the fee will be $150+ with the same service. That finally forced me to cut the cord for cable service. My house for some reason is an over the air signal dead zone for cell and TV signal. So I found this budget outdoor TV antenna and installed it 20 feet above ground on top of my garage. I was amazed this little thing was able to pull in 45 channels. The next problem to solve was how to distribute the OTA signal to my 3 TV's. I really don't want to string coax cables all over the house to make the connection. With some Googling, I found this device "Silicondust HDHomerun". It is basically a little box consists of multiple tuners. You connect the antenna, ethernet cable to the router, power source to this little box. The router will send TV signal by wifi or ethernet cable to a media box at your TV. The media box with the "HDHomerun" app will control which channel you want to tune in. The media box can be a Roku, Firestick, Android box etc. Your hand held device like cell phone, iPad, Android tablet can also receive the TV signal with the proper app installed. With this device, you can watch OTA TV just like any other subscribed service such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, on your TV and other handheld devices. Silicandust also has other models with more tuners, DVR functions (with subscription). If you have good indoor signal, you can use the HDHomerun with indoor antenna.
