I bought the Roku so I can stream the WWE network. It has issues streaming my Netflix and sometimes Pandora. I checked the accounts and streamed with another device and it worked great, so not sure if its the Roku. The remote on the Roku constantly stops working and I have to reset it to contiune or it sticks and "zooms" through the pages.
I have never seen anything so great i Love it. I have been advertising this product as if it was my own idea. That only mean that i have been getting people to buy the Roku and they also love it. Rhanks to whomever idea this was. And i will continue to let family and friends and anyone else know about the Roku. I will be purchasing another one for my other t.v.
Overall, we are pleased with the performance of our Roku Streaming Stick; however, there are some negatives. We are pleasantly surprised with the performance we get with the relatively slow speed internet connect we have (DSL). Movies are viewed without any hesitation or periodic loading. Our disappointment is more with the lack of viewing material on NETFLIX, which is not Roku's fault. We had planned to use the streaming option as a replacement for the NETFLIX DVD option, but discovered that hardly any of the movies we wanted to watch were available via streaming - DVD ONLY. One problem we now have is that our regular TV signal from an attic-mounted antenna is interefered with when the Roku device is connected. We must disconnect the power from the Roku to watch TV and reconnect it for streaming. Also, navigating on the Roku device is confusing and tedious.
I had a hard time connecting my wifi with this device. It would say the wifi is connected but I wasn't able to get on any apps. However the app choices are well.
