MAG 254 set up at my house for a friend. I've now sent it to him and it wont connect to the internet. Link status down and no ip address. Help me!

Title says it all really. I purchased a MAG 254 and a 1 yr sub with the intention of sending a friend a "ready to go" box as he's not particularly tech savvy.

Had it all set up and working fine at my house for a few days before boxing it back up and sending to him. He's hooked it all up but can't get it to connect to his wifi. I've tried talking him through and can't think of anything obvious we're missing.

I've gone into Network, Wifi, Auto and chosen his SSID from the list, then entered his password and saved. I've tried rebooting the device at this point and not rebooting and the result is the same - no internet connection.

In the network info page the link status is down and the ip address is blank.

Any advice gratefully accepted.

Best iptv box?

I am looking to get the most out of an iPTV service. I use Kodi right now on fire TV stick and Best Player on xbox one, but I wanna take advantage of everything that is offered.

I know magbox is popular and so are dreamlink and avov..

I was leaning towards dreamlink because it's android, but wasn't sure if it had any limitations that magbox would be better at. I'd have android apps installed, but don't wanna run myself short.

Is there anything magbox can do that dreamlink box's can't do?

Any Australians using IPGuys?

Hey all,

Just wondering if there are any aussies out there using IPGuys. If so, please let me know your experience or if you have any other IPTV recommendation.

I subscribed for one month (IPTVPlanet; IPGuys server) and have experienced a lot of buffering* on most English channels on a 100 down /40 up mbit connection which is why I am making this post.

note* - I have tried on a STB emulator and on Kodi (Stalker PVR)

IPGUYS inquiry and request for reseller

I had questions about IPGUYS AND their service when I look online through Google it brings up a reseller that mentions Orange channel package is this IPGUYS? it seems to be the only one from what I can tell that works with Kodi it mentions also some other black diamond and emerald packages. I've been very dissatisfied with IPTVsubs lately and I'm looking for the most stable provider not really caring too much about HD quality or any type of sports mainly want entertainment channels. I use Kodi exclusively as I have multiple devices and it seems to be the best way to switch from TV to TV.

A Warning to all: Stay away from NFPS/Rocket/IKS66! Garbage service, bad support, stuttering/ slow channels, missing guide, etc

This service is utter shit. I've been using it on and off for about 6 months, and I've had nothing but problems with it. First off, half the channels just simply don't load.
For example, recently I've been using it for the ITV channels, channel 4, and BBC, but half of the times these channels just simply don't work, or work very slowly with stuttering. On my Kodi app, I simply switch to free alternatives (such as FilmOn), and all the channels work flawlessly. How on earth is filmon able to provide these channels for free flawlessly, when the service I PAY for struggles to load the same channels without buffering? It's insane. Next up, all the HBO and Sky TV Movie channels. Good luck with these, most of the time they simply don't work. At all. News channels are touch and go, some work some don't, It's a complete toss up. Sports channels I can't comment on because I don't watch sports, but based on what I've read others are having issues on these channels too.

The guide doesn't work, AT ALL. It stopped working months ago and they never fixed it. You have to use a third-party program guide on Kodi or you're out of luck (god help you if you're using something like a Mag box) I want to comment on support as well. Support is very poor. Just read some of the comments on IPTVtalk about how the people at NFPS/Rocket/IKS simple don't respond to support emails. Lastly, constant server issues will get you stuck in "authentication error" or "unable to load channels" a lot, even when all your information is correct.

Save yourself the hassle, and stay away from this IPTV server (they are all the same provider, just different names).

TITAN-IPTV New Provider

TITAN-IPTV New Provider

FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/groups/titaniptv/

Seems to cater mainly for people living in the United Kingdom with a full SD/HD setup, and for people who like to watch English football.

The service is available on a wide variety of devices including Android, Smart TV's, MAG BOX and any device that runs KODI. Separate M3U & EPG links are also sent in case you have your own ideas on how you want to watch.

The product is instantly setup and delivered to your email after payment, the email also includes instructions on how to set it up on various devices and software.

A free test is available by contacting an on site admin or an extended test can be gotten instantly for a small fee.

My initial experience after an extended test using KODI is very positive, both SD and HD are of high quality and a 7 day EPG that actually works. There is no VOD yet but I'm told it is coming soon and it will have a lot of content when it does get here.

The price is also very competitive beating most of the competition by some margin.

If you are interested in trying a new provider join the above Facebook group and read the "PINNED post" to see what's fully on offer, full channel lists and demonstration videos are also on site.

New to IPTV review

So it's taking me a couple months to feel comfortable paying someone "$12" to get a service which is just a stream of live stations. Not knowing the reliability and having to just jump right in.

First thing. I wasn't sure exactly how IPTV worked or hoe to set it up. So I ordered a Mag254 and signed up for my IPTV service. I used IPTVplanet.ca (I GUYS server) I payed with PayPal and they sent me my info and a how to video to set it up in xbmc using stalker client. I got the streams working but could get EPG working. I asked for help and they said it's not possible in Kodi. So I tried some things on my own and got it to work. Not help from customer support. I'm looking forward to my Mag254 box to arrive Friday so I can set it up. Hopefully it's not to complicated

If I could give one piece of advice about iptv to someone who is wondering if it's for them. You probably won't get good tech support so you have to be willing to figure it out yourself.

That's all hope that helped someone

IPTV provider with US based channels?

I've been using IPGuys and while the streams are great, there are a few channels that are Canadian based (example: HGTV). The Canadian HGTV stream is different than the US stream (lots of "House Hunters: Vancouver")
