Live TV Without Traditional Cable

If you're used to turning on the TV and browsing a familiar lineup of live channels, streaming TV services can provide a very similar experience over your Internet connection.

Popular live-TV streaming options include:

YouTube TV

Live television, sports, news, entertainment and local channels where available.

Hulu + Live TV

Live television combined with Hulu's on-demand streaming content.

DIRECTV

Live television delivered over the Internet with a traditional-TV-style experience.

Sling TV

Flexible live-TV packages that allow you to choose the type of programming that matters most to you.

BPS Fiber does not sell, bill for or require any particular streaming TV provider. You choose and subscribe directly to the service that works best for your household.

Channel lineups, local channels, pricing and availability vary by provider and location and can change over time. Check the provider's current lineup for your address before subscribing.

What About Local Channels?

Yes, you can still watch local television without traditional cable.

Many live-TV streaming services offer local broadcast channels such as ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC in areas where those stations are available through the service.

Because local-channel availability varies by provider and location, we recommend entering your ZIP code on the streaming provider's website before subscribing.

Another option: an antenna

Depending on where you live, an over-the-air antenna may also allow you to receive available local broadcast stations for free.

You can even combine an antenna for local channels with streaming services for sports, movies and entertainment.

Already Have Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or Other Streaming Apps?

You're ready to go.

BPS Fiber works with popular streaming services and the devices you already use to watch them.

Watch on:

  • Smart TVs
  • Roku
  • Amazon Fire TV
  • Apple TV
  • Tablets and smartphones
  • Computers
  • Other compatible streaming devices

If your television already has the apps you use built in, you may not need an additional streaming device at all.

Not Sure What Kind of TV Service You Need?

Start with how you actually watch TV.

“I want something that feels like cable TV.”

Look at a live-TV streaming service such as YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV or DIRECTV. These types of services are designed for households that still want live channels, news, sports and a traditional channel guide.

“I only watch a handful of live channels.”

A more flexible service such as Sling TV may be worth considering, or combine an antenna for local television with individual streaming services.

“We mostly watch movies and shows on demand.”

You may not need a live-TV package at all. Services such as Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video and other on-demand streaming apps let you choose the entertainment subscriptions your household actually watches.

“Local TV is most important to me.”

Check the local-channel lineup of the live-TV streaming service you're considering before subscribing. An over-the-air antenna may also be a good option for receiving available local broadcast stations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Streaming TV

Do I need a cable box to stream TV?
Usually not. Most streaming services work through an app installed on a compatible smart TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV or similar device.
Can I watch live TV?
Yes. Live-TV streaming services offer live channels over your Internet connection. The exact channels depend on the service and your location.
Can I still watch sports?
Yes. Numerous streaming services carry live sports. Because broadcast rights and channel lineups vary considerably by sport and provider, check that the service carries the teams, leagues and channels you watch before subscribing.
Can I get local channels?
Many live-TV streaming providers carry local stations in participating markets. Availability varies by location. An over-the-air antenna is another way to receive available local broadcast television.
Can I record shows?
Many live-TV streaming services offer cloud-based DVR features. Features and storage vary by provider and plan.
Do I need a smart TV?
No. If your TV does not have the streaming apps you want, a compatible streaming device such as a Roku, Amazon Fire TV or Apple TV can add streaming capability to many televisions with an available HDMI connection.
How much Internet speed do I need for streaming?
Streaming itself does not require Gigabit Internet, but the right BPS Fiber plan depends on everything happening in your home at the same time.

A household streaming on several TVs while family members are gaming, working from home, video calling and using other connected devices will benefit from more capacity than someone watching one television.

Not sure which plan is right for you? We'll help you choose.
Will switching to BPS affect my streaming subscriptions?
No. Services such as Netflix and other streaming subscriptions are separate from your Internet provider. Once your devices are connected to your new BPS Wi-Fi, you can continue signing into your existing streaming accounts.
Does BPS sell a TV package?
No. BPS specializes in providing fast, reliable fiber Internet.

Instead of requiring you to purchase a BPS television package, you're free to choose the streaming services and programming that fit your household.

Ready to Make the Switch?

Keep your TV. Upgrade your Internet.
You don't have to give up the shows, sports and entertainment you enjoy just because you're leaving traditional cable Internet behind. Choose the TV services you want. We'll provide the fiber connection that brings them to you.

100% Fiber. Unlimited Data. No Long-Term Contract. Local BPS Support.
