If I cut the cord(I am not), how do I get Internet? :-)

EDITOR'S NOTE: Well obviously you can't cut ALL the cords (unless your neighbor has unsecured wifi). You need some sort of Internet connection, but you don't necessarily have to buy cable TV and telephone service along with it.

I'm a news junkie. I don't understand most of this tech discussion. So, is there any way I can get CNN, MSNBC & NBC & history channel without the hated Comcast (no chance for a dish).

Do you think there is enough of a market out there for helping people connecting their PC to TV, troubleshooting wifi issues, etc to make $50K+ a year?

EDITOR'S NOTE: I suppose that would depend on how you market yourself... Let's say you charge $50/hour. You'd need 1000 one-hour appointments, or roughly 4 a day.

Hey bob whats up ....if I have a wireless connection to my tv and computer shouldn't they both be able to project what I am watching on my computer wirelessly without a cable? My TV already has applications on it which get sent from my computer to my tv, why can't I get a signal from my computer to project it on my tv? please respond at your earliest convenience!

I'd LOVE to be able to stream videos and possibly photos, wirelessly from my PC upstairs to my flat screen TV downstairs. But I find the whole thing so confusing that I am afraid to buy a device in case I cannot configure it properly :-(

@Scott Re: Tv to PC....Effectively, YES, you can. Put a Tuner card in your PC and feed the same source to it as you are feeding to your TV.
The end result is the same.

It's my understanding that Chromecast does not actually send the content from the device you are Casting from; but causes Google to send the identicle content from online to the device being Casted to. The subtle problem therein is that you have to have internet connection. We who view our content via cellular connection and do not have internet cannot benefit from Chromecast. Yes, there is Hotspot via Cell, but it has a Data cost/limitation whereas the Cellular content is unlimited. (T-Mobile style).

We are forced to cut all the cords as we are a full time Rv couple. We get OTA digital and Cellular only. Our HDMI inputs are serviced with an MHL to HDMI adapter on our T-Mobile Samsung cellular. (Hence Roku & Chromecast are NON-solutions).
T-Mobile recently started allowing unlimited Cellular content streaming. NOT to be confused with Hotspot service, which is NOT unlimited.
We use the Mobile Hotspot to connect to the internet only to update our Media Center channel guide.

Windows 7, still, and trying to serve my saved media folders (mp4, mp3, jpg) over to my TV. I used to be able to use ATI/AMD Catalyst with RF wireless mouse and keyboard and HDMI to my Onkyo HTR>TV. That software broke for me a couple of years ago. Lately I've been using various DLNA PC servers to go out to my Dish Hopper's Home Media App>TV. With that, just the Dish remote, no mouse or keyboard (which should still work given any input). Then after a Dish system software update the DLNA is suddenly serving videos at 1/20th the size, still with good audio. So that's now broken. BTW this DLNA is all through a Comcast router, wifi or ethernet, over to a 2007 Hitachi 51" RPTV with only one HDMI input.

I see that a lot of your suggestions are about piping web content, but I mainly care about my own saved media. What would you do?

I bought a Lenova ideacentre Stick 300+ computer. It comes with a hand held mouse and keyboard for 100 dollars. It has Windows 10 os. It plugs into my TV and does any thing a pc can do because it is a pc.
