I am currently looking into how I will receive TV channels in the future. Is a satellite system with coaxial cables still considered modern here, or has the approach changed? Receiving via the internet or distributing satellite signals through network cables? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each system?
Do you want to be completely dependent on DSL? Then go with Telekom or Vodafone. Give yourself to them 100%—they love that.
Otherwise, get a satellite dish, a Quattro LNB, and four receivers in four rooms, and you’ll have TV everywhere without DSL. What’s so outdated about that? It works perfectly.
And if the excavator cuts the phone cable again during road construction, or lightning strikes the telephone exchange, or hackers disrupt the internet, you won’t be begging on hold with the service hotline—you’ll just watch satellite TV and not care at all.

Knallkörper30 Apr 2018 20:48I tend to have a different opinion.
We watch very little TV, but when we do, it’s through Amazon, Netflix, or media libraries. Whenever we want, whatever we want. In my opinion, that is the future. That’s why we have neither satellite nor cable, but plenty of network outlets. If traditional TV were important to me, I would do it like Nordlys, but still wouldn’t skimp on the network wiring.
