Does Bell Streamer use up internet bandwidth?

[erotavlas]

I was wondering if anyone knows if the Bell Streamer uses up internet bandwidth, or does it use the dedicated TV wifi radio of the modem?

I believe if you’re with Fibe tv app plan (no-dvr), it doesn’t. But I remember when I switched to the 4K dvr plan last year, the streamer and the app outside the dvr appear to be slower to load the feeds than before and if it’s on a mobile device, the image appears to be more blurry at the very first few seconds after clicking.

Hi there @erotavlas,

Welcome to the Bell Community 🙂

The Bell Streamer needs to be connected to a Wi-Fi connection. Take a look at Using the Bell Streamer for steps on how to set it up.

You can also check out Bell Streamer under the Additional Details section (at the bottom of the webpage) for more information.

Let the Community know if you have any other questions,
