It took many calls and a lot of work over a couple of weeks to get it set up and operating properly, especially with Netflix, but once it was finally set up it works great.
After owning two Roku devices for several years and not having one single issue with them I thought I would try a Streaming Stick. Right out of the box and a few minutes later, I was up and running, it was great. Well, I have not been able to use it since. I am so tired of trouble shooting, chatting with Support, countless resets, unable to pair the remote. It is beyond frustrating. I think I will stick with the other Roku devices. No pun intended.
Since Time Warner Cable recently went completely digital, we had to add a digital adapter to our kitchen TV. It was impossible to program the adapter and remote to the adapter so that the volume would stay at an even level. Roku Stick to the rescue! We installed our Roku stick and now just watch TV in the kitchen via the Time Warner Cable App on Roku. Additionally, it gives us access to many other channels and apps that we didn't previously have access to on that TV. Thank you, Roku!
I hooked this to my guest room flat panel tv along with my HD attenna. They love it. get all the local channels and access to Netflix, VUDU and HULU. Hope my guests no when to leave!
