I use Directv Stream, and have had zero issues today.

No issues with FIOS other than the ridiculous cost.

Had issues last night trying to watch pens game, basically I couldnt

I got Cue Streaming. It’s $59 a month. You get over 500 channels. It has some glitches but my Verizon package was $180 for less channels. So I put up with occasional rebooting. Plus, the clickers are too complicated for my wife to use. She’s at my mercy on what we watch!!!!!!!!
I haven't had too many issues with DirecTV. At most I've had to reset the lil' box attached to the TV when it'd lose connection.

I recently picked up an OctaStream Elite Max. I haven't had a chance to hook it up yet, but it seems like it's going to be a good way to cut the cord. A good friend of mine has been using this device for over a year now and swears by it. I've seen it in action and it is quite impressive. Just ridiculous amount of content available. Live, replay, on demand, streaming and DVR. It was a little pricey, but I'm hoping it will be worth it. Given what I pay Verizon every month, the return on investment will be quick if it works as advertised.
