I have all that except league pass.You can get NBA league pass, ESPN, plus Netflix, Hulu, and HBO Max for less than cable.

I’m trying to use SurfShark as a VPN. The issues I’m running into is that my subscription is in the US so if I try to login from Mexico it won’t let me watch. If I try to login to NBA.com from a US server such as Orlando, Houston, or Salt Lake, the login times out and I can’t even get on.Questiona for anyone in Vancouver, WA:
1. What Internet Service Provider do you have?
2. How do you watch Blazer games?
Reason I ask is because Xfinity seems to be one of, if not the top internet service provider in Vancouver WA.
So adding Xfinity Stream as a bundle with interneg would come at a lower price than the Stream alone.
Despite this, It's still not cheap.
Does anyone use
Xfinity internet + FubuTV?
DirecTV internet + DirecTV stream?
?????
For those using VPN + League Pass, what VPN do you use?

So I was messing around with it and I logged in from Mexico, got to the page where it told me that my sub is from the US, swapped to a US server and started watching. Then I turned off the VPN and it worked fine.
A lot of trouble.
I'm not in Vancouver, but I use Xfinity because of a lack of options. I tried our local fiber option, which was cheaper and FAR faster, but the service was down for a month of the 2 months I had it. Of course it turns out that provider runs on the CenturyLink network. Terrible. I never would have signed up if I'd known that.Questiona for anyone in Vancouver, WA:

For streaming, are you with Xfinity as well, with Root Sports? Or FubuTV? Other?I'm not in Vancouver, but I use Xfinity because of a lack of options.

I hate Xfinity, but it is reliable. I so wish we could get Ziply here in Oregon City. It's incredible. Highly recommended.
So I have Xfinity Internet and stream anything else I want to watch. I've thought about an antenna... But haven't gone there yet.
Interesting. In theory, you should be able to use a server from a city without NBA team, and should be able to watch 100% of games minus those aired on national TV, but there'd be no local team black-outs. Does my logic sound right?
Thanks for sharing!Yes. In theory that's supposed to be how it works. I don't know why their login server won't let me even log onto their site from a US server, but the Mexico server works fine.

It goes off your billing zip code.Wonder if, to avoid that, you needed to pay for the league pass while on the VPN? Unless it asks for an address or something.

I do. Doesn't your laptop have an HDMI port? And that's only if your TV doesn't support casting.Yeah but you can't watch it on your TV![]()
I do. Doesn't your laptop have an HDMI cable?
Doesn't your PC accept an HDMI cable?I have a PC my dude.

I use my phone, then use airplay/mirror cast to display on my TV. Works great and in HD.Yeah but you can't watch it on your TV![]()
4K HDMI Cable 150FT - https://a.co/d/cQsKwCKHow long of a cable are we talking about because my computer is in my office upstairs and my TV is downstairs.![]()
4K HDMI Cable 150FT - https://a.co/d/cQsKwCK
USB Extender Up to 150ft https://a.co/d/cAnBV4e
Or if you have a fire stick or android tv adapter there's an even easier solution.
But casting to your TV from your phone is probably the easiest.
great info!
something we have discovered over the last few years buying tvs, that people should be aware of.:
Tvs will boycott apps based on mfg competition/contract negotiations
For example. We bought a google tv for downstairs. But when we first bought it, it would not allow the dstream app to be installed directly on it. So we had to get a firestick for that tv. The firestick wireless stream speed is much slower than the tv, to the point watching was almost unbearable. Constant freezes. Rewind not worming right, etc.
So we were about to buy a different tv and then my nephew came to stay and i took that fire stick upstairs for him.
When i did, i found out i was then able to get the dstream app onto the tv directly, likely due to contract negotiations agreements. Now it works great.
Point is two fold:
Firesticks have crappy wireless speeds or range, so be aware.
Research the tv before you buy to ensure the apps you want can be installed directly.
Good point. I wouldn't buy an expensive TV counting on apps. If you can't use a PC I would use the Onn 4k for a $20 cheap option (if you're kind of technical) or I'd buy the Nvidia Shield ($200) for an expensive option. A mid option would be the Fire Cube (around $100).great info!

You should probably install a hard wired mesh wifi system with at least two routers evenly spaced in your house (or one near each tv).Same level though. Ours work fine on the same level. But the Tvs upstairs and downstairs run smoother on the wifi then when we use a firestick. The firestick slows down, which i assume is because the range is shorter or signal capture is not as good as the tvs themselves.
