Shaw TV Bye Bye


Recommended Posts

Yes it is dying.  The satellite that Shaw service for this area of Mexico is coming from (Anik F2) is falling out of orbit and will eventually burn up as it falls back to earth.  In preparation for this, Shaw has been moving channels over to a different satellite (Anik G1) which does not have a radiation pattern this far south so we will no longer get any Shaw service.  It is time to find an alternative (Kiwisat or live streaming through the internet).

For at the beach where we could not get Fiber then Starlink.com was the way to go (but one must have North of the receiver sky free of obstructions which one can check by using their cell phone). For Netflix I have set the 4 users as English, Spanish, and the same as children. So a vpn is not needed unless for a program specific to a certain country. For a VPN I use https://bit.ly/surfshark30 but will mention it does not work with Prime . We have a smart TV and it works with ones there like Pluto. For that to hook a Smart TV direct to a router hardwired or Wifi one must have a router that works with Surfshark, ours is a specific model of Asus.  If not using a vpn to US or Canada Pluto will broadcast in Spanish.
