Yes you will have to get more gig. It's a streaming system that uses internet bandwidth. Ask your internet provider to assist you in allocating bandwidth based on your usage to get the amount you'd need and price point. Good luck.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.All movies and TV streaming uses data. Movies that are 1080p could use 3-4 GB per. So, 10 gigs would be gone very quickly. If you can try a provider that allows unlimited or really high cap. With cox you get between 250GB and 1TB depending on your data speed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you'll need a lot more data or unlimited.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had a very basic internet service of only 5MBPS. I did upgrade to 15MBPS and this has worked well for me. It really depends on what you will be streaming and how many wifi items you have connected to your service. You still may get a very slight amount of buffering depending on where your stream is coming from. I can still watch live tv and sports so I can live with it. You can always try your sped and upgrade if need be. Hope this helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Good rule of thumb is about 1 GB per hour of HD content streamed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I think 10 is the lowest for the Fire Stick. Just clean your cache often and you should be okay.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That depends on your isp provider. I can stream Netflix perse all day long with this device. Not sure about provider limits but there's no cap on the stick.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Depends on your usage. I would strongly recommend streaming at the lowest quality possible. 1080p will kill your bandwidth in about 6-8 hours.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yeah you will definitely hit your data usage cap using the Fire Stick. Streaming movies and shows uses a lot of data. So sadly I would say get some more data on your plan before streaming a bunch of stuff on the Fire Stick.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This will be the same thing. The fire stick is basically an android platform that has apps installed such as Netflix, YouTube, etc. it's the same thing as a smart tv for people that don't have a smart tv. Internet is required to do everything on the fire stick.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
