If you have internet-based TV services, like any of these below, you can also watch NBC and other channels with Paralympics coverage. You could consider subscribing just for a month or signing up for a trial period to catch the Paralympics and then cancel.

• Hulu with Live TV ($65 per month)
• YouTube TV ($65 per month)
• fuboTV ($65 per month)
• AT&T TV's Ultimate Package ($95 per month)
• Sling TV (starting at $35 per month)

Your main option is to download NBC's streaming app, Peacock. To watch live coverage of  the Tokyo Paralympics, sign up for Peacock Premium ($4.99/month). You can cancel your subscription at any time (so you can cancel it right after the Paralympics if you want). 

Once you pay for premium, navigate to the "channels" tab on the top of the screen. Then scroll to find the "NBC Sports" channel. This acts as your live TV. There is no "guide" or way to view a games schedule, and it will only show what is currently airing live. However, you can click here to view the peacock Paralympic schedule. Unfortunately, peacock will only be streaming "top moments and final competitions" so the gold medal matches for wheelchair basketball are the only wheelchair basketball games that are available. 

You can also consider mooching off of someone's cable account that you know. If friends or family are willing to share their cable username and password with you and their internet provider services your area.

Or you can have a watch party! Have the person who has a cable provider start the stream on nbcolympics.com and have them screen share on zoom. Zoom is free for 30 hours with one on one meetings and up to 40 minutes for unlimited participants. Hint: you can just end the meeting and restart it after the 40 minutes.
