Good Day.

In order to answer your question, you would need to provide us with a lot more information.

Technically it is possible. It will depend on the Bell TV service you wish to subscribe to how you plan or wish to watch Fibe TV. E.g. Fibe Tv box, Bell Streamer, phone, tablet, computer, at home and away, etc.

They are separate services. You can subscribe to one without having the other.

From a pricing perspective, it may be more cost effective to keep both services with the same supplier. You will still need to have a Bell modem.

It is best that you contact Bell Customer Service. They are better equipped to answer your question from a cost and TV / Internet pricing perspective. They are there to work with & for you to best meet your needs & requirements. Call: 1 866 310-BELL (2355) or dial *611 from any Bell mobile device.

Thank you for posting your question.

Take care.

Hello   I only  have  a bell mobility contract cell phone or monthly cell service  and in my plan  it has  internet access/ data

 So  I don't require a subscription for home internet service that has them modems/boxes

I  only use my cell phone for internet.

MY Question for bell mobility ? 
Can I  buy the monthly subscription - Fibe tv app  only ??      To be used on my cellphone .

 I seen at my sisters  house the bell fibe app  was what I need .

 

Is it possible just to buy  the monthly subscription for the TV App fibe app???

i don't need  all them  bloat box's  like  a modem or  anything like that

or  would I have to purchase another monthly internet service   ???  2 internet subscriptions ??  Plus the   Tv app subscription ??

Good Day.

Thank you for your reply.  To answer your first question, you cannot just buy the Fibe TV app service without subscribing to Fibe Internet.. Cellular data is not quite the same as internet.

A Fibe Internet package is required in order to have Fibe TV service. Your mobile device when accessed from your home is connected to your Bell Fibe Internet. It is connecting by way of your home Wi-Fi. To do so, you require Internet service & a Bell modem. When you use your mobile device on the go, you are accesing the wide world web & all of your applications by way of your cellular service. You are using  cellular data.You also have the ability to connect to another Wi-Fi network if one is available.

You can subscribe to Crave TV as an add-on that can be used with your mobility device. You can get access to Crave directly through Bell Mobility with a monthly subscription on your Bell bill.
Enjoy the Crave content library, including thousands of hours of the best series and movies from Crave, HBO, Max, Showtime and more.

Take care.

I’m trying to connect my Bell Fibe tv to a cable internet router. Any help would be appreciated 

Good Day.

In order to assist in answering your question, can you please provide us with further details in terms of what you are trying to achieve with the equipment that you do have?

Are you looking to convert & use your existing Cable TV wiring for Fibe TV?

The Bell Fibe TV / Internet Home Hub modem is a gateway modem/ router. You cannot directly connect a Bell Fibe TV modem to a cable modem/router; they are designed for different types of TV & Internet connections (fiber optic vs. cable) and require separate setups.

It is possible to substitute coaxial cable for ethernet wiring using a Coax-to-Ethernet Adapter.

Please elaborate & we will do our best to help you.

Take care.

I have been a Bell satellite customer for many years. I have an Apple TV box connected to the TV as well as a Bell satellite receiver, and I have the Fibe app installed on the Apple TV box. My Internet service is 100 down/30 up on cable (Rogers resold by Teksavvy). I'm happy with Teksavvy and not eager to switch, even though there is a Bell Grade Level Box (GLB) in our front yard. My landlord says no holes in the wall, so it doesn't seem possible to bring Bell fibre into the house - which appears to be a requirement for Fibe TV. Several of the channels I subscribe to on satellite are simply not available on the Apple TV Fibe app.

I suppose I could install the Teksavvy TV app or the RiverTV app on the Apple box and cancel Bell altogether. My question for the forum is this: Will the full Fibe TV experience ever be offered to customers who use an ISP other than Bell for their Internet service? Fibe TV is crippled - for want of a better word - with any other ISP. Will this always be the case?

Good Day & Welcome.

Your question is next to impossible to answer on this website. Proprietaty information such as this is not posted nor shared by Bell on this website.

Always is a very long time in today's world. Any answer I could give you, would be based on pure speculation with little to no fact to support a yes, no, or even a maybe.

Take care.

Thank you for your question. I find it curious that your landlord says no holes in the walls. Both satellite TV and your current internet provider require holes in building walls for service. The hole required for fibre access is smaller than either of the two existing holes. I know that because I have both Bell Satellite TV and cable TV service, though the latter is disconnected. The five-plex next door to me has both cable and Bell fibre with no conflicts or issues. While landlords have the right to decline access, their consent is required if a tenant wants Bell service.
