I think what the technician meant was that Hypptv by default is set to work through the wired connection. Wifi on the STB can still be used. My advice, for simple media played through USB? Its okay. Anything more? Better get a proper media player. This post has been edited by voncrane: Nov 13 2017, 05:36 PM

Yes, as I explained earlier. The default way is thru a cable, but some have got it to work over wifi.. It's a bit of a hassle but it can be done. Can't remember the steps and couldn't be bothered to figure it out either cuz the box is crap and I rarely watch Hypptv, even if I do, the device is just beside the router. Alternatively, you can get powerline adapters and connect across distances. Provided the wiring is on the same phase... Else no choice, run that cable.

Login to your router Settings > Internet > Advanced Settings You will see VLAN bridge settings
By default IPTV is set on LAN port 4, the rest are internet Change it so your wifi is set to IPTV. Connect your stb to wifi.

I use the Minix Neo U1. Both it and most other decent flagship devices are within your budget. Don’t simply take my word for it. Do checkout the dedicated thread other options. Make sure to read the page one and browse through the later posts. We share the good stuff and it’s mostly personal experiences.
