I currently pay 150 a month for internet and direct tv (ridiculous). I have been hearing about the fire stick, but don’t know anyone who can tell me a lot about it. I am hooked on the discovery channel, history channel, and animal planet among others. Can I get these 3 channels without paying extra for them? Just trying to find something cheaper. If I have to pay for direct tv thru the fire stick to see these channels I don’t see how I would be better off.
Hey Ronda, if you don’t want to pay 150 a month, you can get all of these channels and more with the Live Net TV app but be sure to use a VPN as discussed in the guide.
Installed Directtv app via downloader. The firestick controller will not work with the app?? any ideas
Thanks
If it doesn’t work with the Remote then you would need to install Mouse Toggle. Let us know if this works for you.
