Hi Sifus,
Am a novice on Android TV box. Saw Lazada offering MXQ Pro 4K Amlogic 905 at RM139.00, wonder if it is a good buy for a beginner like me?

LOL - thanks for the advise. Anyway, taking advantage of a further credit card discount of 10%, I took the plunge.
Going explore the world of KODI.

I have bought one unit of this MXQ PRO S905 4K 8GB Quad Core Android 5.1 with 1GB Ram and only using it for Kodi and some stand alone apks like HKTV, Mobdro, Popcorn Time. For some reason, Showtime doesn't work, maybe I have to delete and re-install it. It also have Miracast which I successfully connected it with my Samsung Note 4. So far, it is working smoothly for me. The seller installed quite a lot of kodi addons but most of them are not working. I deleted most of them and put in new addons without any problems. Oh! buy a wireless mouse to use as it will be easier. Lazada selling one (wireless mouse) which is only RM15.00 only, I'm using that too.
I have not played any games on this so I do not know how it fares with games.

If you spend a little more, you might consider getting a better one which is the Beelink mini MXIII-II with 2GB Ram and 16GB Rom. Redskull recommends this quite highly. See his review here :- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hd1GI64KYvs. I have bought one from Gearbest for my niece and just received it. Will be setting up the set for her when I'm free.

I'm not an expert on Android Box but just sharing as I am using the box also. I hope it helps you.

Bro, you are having me worried here. I have just received my Beelink MXIII II today, I hope when I get back got no such error for me. Actually I have also got another one at home that I set up for my niece, gonna try to see if got such error or not on her set when I get home.

Hi Sifus, need some advice.

My Beelink MINI MXIII II disconnects the WIFI connection by itself and doesn't automatically connects back again. I need to reconnect it manually.
Any ideas on this? Or it is because of one of my many apk's that is causing this?
Any advise would be welcomed.

No, I'm using a TP Link router

The funny thing is that I had previously the same type of box which I had set up for my niece, been running it for over a month at the same place before I handed over to her and that box did not disconnect by itself.
I have 2 other another boxes, MXQ Pro and ZIDOO X1 II, both running fine but then again both of these boxes are quite near the router. Is the Beelink MINI MXIII II prone to poor wifi reception? I'm subscribing unifi 30Mbps, I have run the speed test on the box and only got at best around 10Mbps. On my Note 4 at the same area, I've recorded full 30Mbps speed.

Yes, am using the 2.4ghz network.
I'll try to move the box to another closer location to see whether it will disconnects again.

Question: How to know whether my TP Link router is capable of 5ghz?
By the way, my TP link router should be about 4 to 5 years old. Not sure if it capable of 5ghz or not.
Let's say it is capable, does it runs concurrent 2.4 and 5ghz or do I need to set it?
What would be a good recommendation for a reasonable cost router capable of 2.4 + 5ghz network and also compatible to use with Hypptv?


Only 2 boxes on wifi, both in rooms. The one outside connects on ethernet cable.
Ya, I try to move it to another place to see if the problems persist or not.

Will look it up on the Network and Broadband section.
Thank you very much for your help.
