<p>I bought a Vizio Co-Star so I could watch my D’s home games this upcoming season - first time the school will be webcasting any sports and from what I read, the Co-Star will handle playing the needed flash. Have it hooked up and took it for a test spin - the only thing I could think to test was to go to a YouTube video of a game from last year - it was choppy at best and readjusted to lower picture quality with the message that my bandwidth was too low.</p>
<p>I have 3mbps with Uverse. I am willing to try to upgrade. Does anyone know this product and what I really need to watch sports on webcast with Uverse and Vizio CoStar? The season starts beginning of March so I have some time but don’t want to wait too long!!</p>
<p>We used to have 3 mbps DSL and two people watching streaming video was not a good experience. We have 25 mpbs now and it seems that there’s way more than enough bandwidth for anything.</p>
<p>BC, what was the price difference for you to bump from 3 to 25 mbps?</p>
<p>I think that the DSL was about $35 (they bumped me from about $19/month). The cable internet was $30 for 6 months, $60 for 6 months and $72 now which I have to keep for a year. So there’s an average of about $60 per month for two years. I’m going to try to negotiate the rate down at the end of two years. BTW, the price they gave me is actually for 15 mbps but it always measures at 25 mbps so I guess I’m getting some kind of implied discount. I don’t really think that it matters between 15 and 25. Fast is fast. I think that we’d be fine with 10 mbps but they don’t offer that.</p>
<p>Thanks BC! Good to know and hope I can get 10 for less!</p>
