A few different threads have touched on this but I am not really clear on what the differences/options are.

We have a 25MBps dsl line in Gilford. On an island so ABB is not an option.

We used to have Directv but after selling the property the buyer took the dish down. We originally went with it as streaming wasn’t really a thing, plus we could use the same service on both homes with extra boxes on our account.

After a strange turn of events we are back in our old island home
and need a tv solution. I don’t think putting a dish back up is the best choice any longer.

We have Comcast at home, not sure if I can somehow stream that at the lake as well?

We have 2 TVs. Not opposed to changing them out as they are 5-6 year old led technology so built in web functionality wasn’t what it is today.

Looking for all or as much of the usual stuff as possible. Local news, NESN,
Hgtv, espn, etc. We do get free Netflix with Comcast,
not sure but I should be able to access that up there. Free Hulu as well thanks to my daughter being a student so we can share the login.

Any advice for different tv/hardware options or packages that will give the best bang for the buck?
