Streaming Outside Of Your Area Code

I have been hearing streaming outside your area code can be a problem. Does anyone have experience with streaming services cutting off service when traveling?

I’ve been all over the US and stream through my home Spectrum/Brighthouse/Charter (whatever they call themselves this week) account. I haven’t had many issues. There have been some times where content won’t get delivered but that is rare and the “local” channels don’t come through to the streaming. I don’t have HBO, Cinemax, etc. so those I can’t talk about.

Playstation Vue definitely has restrictions and stopped working for me after about 40 days outside my "home area". I have made a few posts in this forum about my issues with Playstation Vue.

YouTubeTV get upset if you're outside your home area for an extended period of time. But, from what I have observed, that only seems to affect what network channels you can watch in real time. If you have shows you are recording it appears that you can access them in your library as soon as they are done recording regardless of where you are. Since you're given an "infinite capacity DVR" there's no reason not to record lots and lots of shows. And, of course, the non-network cable channels can always be access from anywhere.

Howdy!

We are fulltimers and have been streaming for awhile. We have unlimited data through AT&T and Verizon. We use Apple TV to stream to our tv’s using AT&T TV, Netflix and Amazon Prime. We traveled from Texas to Alaska last year with out any streaming problems. It now seems using AT&T TV (previously DirecTV Now) they automatically change the local tv channels to the area we are in. Which makes it nice, with satellite you have to contact them to do so.

“Happy Trails”
