Thank u brethren. Thanx to the other posters who also put me on cutting the cord and other gems.

If I have like 5 of these running my house, how can I maximize my WiFi so all devices run smooth without any buffering issues?

Man that's a whole 'nother topic.

I run DD-WRT on my router. There's a variety of settings you have to play with according to how far the furthest device will be from your router if you have the ability to manipulate that stuff. If you don't have DD-WRT, then this will all sound foreign.

But you can manipulate the ACK settings and the broadcast modes according to the types of devices jn your network. Like you may have only N or only G or with some do routers can mix both.

Also can alter the broadcast range.

Best to have a general knowledge on networking of you're gonna mess with this stuff or just Google settings of other ddwrt users.

I know everyone prefers wifi, but if possible, use Ethernet cables on your devices.
Never have to worry about spotty wifi connections when you got your shit plugged in directly to the router or a switch.
Helps to have the house pre-wired for it though.

UPDATE: I put the order in on Sat, 10/17, got the tracking no. yesterday, and its saying it was delivered TODAY,10/20 (Im at work right now). If so, thats maaad quick. Looks like it shipped from Staten Island, and Im in Queens, but still...thats excellent service..


You can install it on your desktop and play with it prior to buying a box. I suggest that to all my friends. It's how I first learned it years back. You can run it on Windows, Mac and Linux. Really no excuse not to be familiar with it prior to getting the box in the mail.

You mess it up, just wipe it out and start over. That's the cool thing about Kodi. It will seem less intimidating to those starting out.
Thanks again. Ima take the advice here and watch a few youtube instructional vids on the media box + Kodi.

Should I be able to find live ufc events using this thing?

For live UFC, check Sports Devil, also Phoenix, Gorilla Streams, Zeus and I've never tried it but some are saying Mobdro is good for that.

Thanks for the heads up! I see four in stock at a nearby Target; plan to be there when they open at 8am and hopefully at least one will still be available.

Just put the beast on it and you will need nothing else.
