I click and click and it takes awhile for the Roku to acknowledge my request. The Amazon Firestick is a lot more responsive. Once I get the application loaded, however, it streams very reliably. LOVE the USB port power connect wire that is sold separately. I had to call Roku because of set up problems and it look about 45 minutes to get it working. Plug, unplug, etc.
I have purchased 2 Roku's within a year. We had no problems initially, but after moving the Roku stick worked intermittently. I purchased another one and it work a few times and then it kept getting stuck in a certain menu. At this point we are using both sticks; when one will not advance, we put the other in and switch remotes. Frustrating!!!
When I first got this Streaming Stick I would have given it 5 stars but, after using it for a few weeks I have to deduct 1 star as it keeps loosing connection with it's remote and I have to go through the set-up procedure to get it to reconnect.
