How to Connect to TSN
For Canadian sports enthusiasts, The Sports Network (TSN) is a staple, offering comprehensive coverage of everything from hockey and basketball to soccer and international events. But with so many ways to consume media today, how do you ensure you're always connected to TSN on your television? This guide breaks down the most common and effective methods visit The most straightforward and widely adopted method for watching TSN is through a traditional cable or satellite television subscription. Major providers across Canada, such as Bell, Rogers, Shaw, Telus, and others, include TSN in many of their programming packages. To connect this way: Subscribe to a TV Package: Contact your preferred cable or satellite provider and inquire about their TV packages. Ensure that TSN (and any of its sister channels like TSN1, TSN2, TSN3, TSN4, TSN5) is included in your chosen tier. Install the Service: A technician will typically install the necessary equipment, including a set-top box, and connect it to your television via an HDMI cable. Tune In: Once installed, simply use your remote control to navigate to the TSN channel number, which varies by provider and region. This method offers reliability and ease of use, often bundling TSN with other popular entertainment and news channels. The rise of internet streaming has opened up new avenues for watching TSN, offering flexibility and, in some cases, the ability to cut the cord from traditional TV providers.

Bell Media offers 'TSN Direct' (now often branded as TSN+), a standalone streaming service that provides live and on-demand access to all TSN channels and exclusive content. This is an excellent option for those who don't want a full cable subscription but still desire TSN's offerings. To watch TSN Direct on your TV: Smart TV App: Many modern smart TVs have dedicated apps for streaming services. Check your TV's app store for the 'TSN' app. Download, log in with your TSN Direct subscription credentials, and you're ready to stream.

Many traditional TV providers also offer their own streaming apps (e.g., Bell Fibe TV app, Rogers Ignite TV app) that allow subscribers to watch live TV channels, including TSN, on various devices. If you have a cable or satellite subscription that includes TSN, you can often use these apps on your smartphone, tablet, or computer, and then 'cast' or 'mirror' the content to your TV if your TV or streaming device supports it. If you're using a laptop or computer to access TSN content (either through a web browser or a specific app) and your TV doesn't have a direct app or compatible streaming device, an HDMI cable is your reliable backup. Connect the Cable: Simply connect one end of an HDMI cable to your laptop's HDMI output port and the other end to an available HDMI input port on your TV. Select Input: Use your TV remote to change the input source (often labeled 'Input,' 'Source,' or 'HDMI') to the corresponding HDMI port you've used. Display Content: Your laptop's screen should now be mirrored on your TV. You can then navigate to TSN's website or app on your laptop and watch the content on the big screen.

Walmart reveals the price for its Chromecast replacement, and it's a bargain
With the retirement of the Google Chromecast line last year, users who want an easy way to get streaming features on their non-smart TV have had to look elsewhere. Thankfully alternatives like the Onn 4K streaming device from Walmart have been available to meet that need, functioning as a worthy replacement for the Chromecast. Now, a product page on Walmart's website confirms that a new version of the streaming device, the Onn 4K Plus, is on its way. Spotted by 9to5Google, the listing reveals that the device will sell for just $30, which is $20 cheaper than the typical price of a 4K Chromecast, and like the Chromecast it has a small footprint and comes with a remote. Recommended Videos The newest version of the device will launch as a followup to the previous Onn 4K Pro from last year. The Onn 4K Pro got our recommendation ahead of the Google Chromecast thanks to its affordable price, functionality that covers all the essentials, and handy extras like the ability to find the remote (increasingly useful considering how remotes love to go off on expeditions of their own). Now, with the Chromecast line discontinued, the Onn 4K Plus will look like an even more appealing option — perfect for if you have an old TV without streaming functions but you aren't wanting to upgrade to a smart TV just yet. The details about the new Onn 4K Plus are fairly minimal right now, though the device will ship with 16 GB of storage and 2 GB of RAM. Walmart also says the product offers an updated Google TV OS and Google Assistant, with streaming support for at least YouTube, YouTube TV, Netflix, Disney+, Paramount+, and Prime Video. The device also supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, with a voice function for the remote control too. It's not yet known when the device will be available, but given that the product listing has just gone up, it likely won't be long until the launch date. The product might also be available in stores soon as well as online, so if you're in the market for a streaming device then you might want to check out your local Walmart store to see if they have the device in stock.
