After getting rid of satellite, we were running our internet through a game system. We still had 2 TV's to figure out how to run streaming to...we ran into Roku by accident. I'm glad we did. We've had no issues and there are more options than we thought! We tell everyone we know about Roku.
I bought a month ago and it works great, easy to install, it had no problem at all connecting to the home wireless router. it helps if you have the USB connection on the TV but you definitely have to connect the Roku to an independent electrical outlet other than that it work flawlessly and the remote its easy to use although I wish the remote would have come with a keyboard to ease the pain of scrolling thru spelling tittles when trying to do a search.
We bought it back in Aug 2014 to watch JW broadcasting and its awesome!!! We actually bought a 2nd one for our tv downstairs to enjoy the same in the entire house.
