Nice to have Roku

Roku is very easy to use, but some times when we select a channel it will take long time or it never connect to channel, verified my internet speed and it looks good, my assumption is that some time Roku adoptor is not able to get signals from modem/router.
Pros: Easy to set up, Great value, Compact, High quality picture, Easy to use, Built in Wi-Fi
Cons: Want more video choices
I would recommend this to a friend!

Has promise, but falls short

Gets stuck at "Connecting to the local network" even though it connects to the wireless. Makes the device fairly useless.
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, Great if wireless works, Compact
Cons: Inconsistent performance, Difficult to set up, Wireless hard to set up
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Inconsistant handling of streaming video
on December 28, 2010
Posted by: Hawaiiduffer
from Hawaii
When it is working correctly it is great for Netflix. I have a 6 to 7 MBS connection and the Roku will stop and reset itself during a movie and act like it has to change the video quality downward because of a slow data stream. The problem is not my IP provider nor Netflix. I requested assistance via e-mail from Roku and got no reply.

New XD Player is disappointing
on December 28, 2010
Posted by: Don
from Colorado Springs, CO
Based on the performance of an existing HD Player, upgraded my primary TV with a new XD; what a disappointment! Player is constantly buffering, and repeated calls to customer support have provided no relief. Subsequently, I have switched the primary TV back to the old HD player, which performs flawlessly.
Pros: Compact, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up
Cons: Inconsistent performance
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
