Our cable connection seems to have been disconnected or someone has accidentally cut the cable. Our landlord has been taking care of nothing for years. How can I continue watching TV? I don't need Netflix, Amazon Prime, Sky etc. Only the most popular channels… Large Samsung Smart TV, 4 years old. Receiver, antenna, USB stick - what works properly. I live in Paderborn-Zentrum if that matters! I'm grateful for any help!
With DVB-T2, you don't get as many programs, but at least, better than nothing. All you need is a receiver and a rod antenna.
IPTV.
If the TV is only a couple of years old, it will surely have DVB-T2. You only need a DVB-T antenna and a smart card for private programs.

You can see the private programs with a subscription to freenet.tv.

A Freenet CI + module is required for DVB-T2, individual smart cards for Freenet are not available.
DVB-T2 has been available in Germany since 2016, at the start there were hardly any TVs with built-in DVB-T2 tuners to buy, which is only later, with a 4-year-old TV, it is unlikely that he has already installed a DVB-T2 tuner, a freenet-capable receiver would then have to be purchased
