Just visiting?

Moving there?

Military?

ETA: I'm not trying to get into your business, I just would have different suggestions based on the length of your stay and if you have access to the Armed Forces Network.

I have dual citizenship here and in Germany. My family is from a town outside Munich in Bavaria. Don't come back until you try several of the Deutschland's beers. I recommend Weihenstephan Hefe Weissbier.


Sichere Reisen!

I would suggest getting a Sling box then. If you are still going to maintain your residence in Tuscaloosa just hook that thing up to your cable box and you can watch whatever cable package you pay for.

that is how slingbox works. You can take it on the road? Do people that go camping of take their big screens to tailgate use this or do they do satelite.

Well you need an Internet connection for it to work.

I know DirecTV sells a mobile antenna to use for tailgating, but I don't know if that would work in Germany.

Slingbox. Or if you know someone who's stationed over there, bug them to see if you can use their AFN.

Maybe. When I was deployed certain apps on my Xbox didn't work due to the country I was in, a la ESPN. I'd look at the Kodi website to see if it works in Germany or get a VPN.

Kodi doesn't work on Xbox even though that's what it was made for initially.

Been overseas a lot and the best way I've found is internet and insert provider such as ESPN go, watch ESPN, Cbs sports app, fox sports app. Usually some of the bars and what not on Ramstein would have the game but the time difference was a killer. Watch ESPN for example stores replays. So just my .10 cents.

Safe Travels and Roll Tide.

I'd think any Streaming Device can be used Worldwide with an Internet Connection.

God Speed.
