MDZ-22-AB is original global version with newer firmware

Tested the viu, does not work for Mi International Version. It mentioned that it does not cover for something for this region in their message .
So I uninstalled it.

Do you need account to logon?

yes need a account to logon.

Quick question to those who bought mibox S, can help me check whether u can download the app AMAZONPRIME?? And can stream it nicely like Netflix? Pls need help. I want to buy the box already tomorrow

For my box - it just freezes to a screenshot everytime i chose a title. Not sure if others have the same problem.

thx

Use a mouse/Air remote to drag the screenshot up. Just imagine like scrolling using ur thumb on a touch screen smartphone (because the app is only optimized for phones/tablets, not for TV with remote control).

I wish Viu make an Android TV-optimised app though. This app just screams TV streaming experience.

read the xiaomi online Q&A, it says rooted box...

Yes, can. But you might need a DNS service for that (Getflix is a good recommendation)

Have been reading through the thread, but need some simple instructions on how to get AOTG installed and to work. So far I see I need to install a sideload app?

yes u need to install latest AOTG.apk+Orientation.apk+chrome or firefox.apk for login your AOTG account and u need a mouse or air mouse

try use airmouse or mouse..once u have mouse open the apps using mouse not remote.

Im planning to buy mi box s. Wondering whether the ugreen 3.0 usb to ethernet will work with mibox.

Yes it does, i’m using it with the mi box s as well.

Is the wired speed as per your subscribe Internet speed? OR you loose some MB's? Can you please confirm on this Chief

TQ

UGREEN 3.0 usb confirm works with Mibox S. Lan + 3 USB 3.0 ports = Perfect

question is do u get higher speed with usb/lan or wifi?

what speed u get if do speedtest on box with this LAN connection?

if the LAN connection is non-gigabit, it is limited to 100mbps.

ac wifi can go >300mbps, assuming broadband is capable.

which is why some devices are better off with wifi than lan.

anyone tested it?

Since my mi box s is in a pretty dead spot in my bedroom, I use a tp-link range extender. My speed is 100Mbps. And on 2.4g previously I only got 20-25mbps on the mi box. Using Ethernet I get 50-60mbps. So it’s a big step up for me.

I didn't do speed test since my network only 30mbps..but I can feel big improvement in my network since use the ethernet lan..loading time youtube superb fast compare using my previous 5ghz wifi..actually i get this ugreen usb adapter because of the limited of usb port at mibox..right now im using air mouse and add 16gb pendrive to upgrade my internal storage..now still got 1 usb port left.. Usefull!
