If I buy this can I get rid of my cablevision? null

Hi Nieve! I purchased mine a month ago & I LOVE IT! The NETGEAR NIGHTHAWK X4S AC3200 WIFI DOCSI is a modem/router combo device that can handle “Gigabyte“ speeds (for any future upgrade I might do). My internet provider had an offer to increase my speeds (from 100gbs to 300gbps) for a few bucks more, so I upgraded. While searching for this type of combo, I also wanted to make sure that it would be able to handle gigabyte speed if I upgrade again. This device will have no problem doing that. I made the “disconnect” from cable channels going on 3 yrs now & have no regrets. There are many online streaming devices(Roku & SLING TV are the ones I’ve been using) & pkgs to choose from, you just need to decide which subscription/channels are best for you. My reason for choosing the ROKU device was that it’s been around for a few yrs already, you can purchase their device from many brick & mortar stores: Walmart, Best Buy, Target, etc, it has good reviews, comes w/a remote, you own the device/no monthly rental fee & their customer service is pretty good. As for my subscription/SLING TV, I love the fact that I can change my pkg at anytime, it gives you a channel guide, PPV is also an option, & the prices are great! Depending on where you’re located, you may be able to stream local channels as well. SLING TV has lots of deals & discounts on pkgs. , an antenna (for those local channels) and referral discounts to friends/family too. During my research, I’ve read that you need no less than 25gbps for streaming....so you don’t get “buffering “/ pauses in whatever your watching. But I’ve chosen to go with faster speeds since I also have a home computer & cell phones that utilize the internet at the same time. I originally stared out w/50gbps speeds without any issues, but as I said earlier, there was a great offer I couldn’t pass up. I hope this info helps you! Best of luck in your searches!

You still need a cable Internet subscription to be able to use this, so if Cablevision is your Internet provider then no you cannot get rid of them and still have Internet access.
