So thinking about hooking up with Direct TV Now, which basically streams tv through your internet through Apple TV.

The AT&T store has an insanely cheap cost for this, but if anyone has done this any advice would be helpful. I guess my main question is: my current internet download speed is 18mbs. Is that enough to stream shows through Apple TV?

Thanks in advance.

HD streams use about 5 to 6 mbps. 4K streams (which are rare) use about 25 mbps. So 18 mbps is good for at least 2, maybe 3 simultaneous HD streams. 

We have a family of 5 so we have a 50 mbps plan and have never had an issue when all of us are watching something different.
