Just realised that Lan Port 4 on the default Unifi WiFi Router (Residential Gateway) is a VLan dedicated only for HyppTV IPTV channels.
When you try to plug in to other Lan Ports other than Lan Port 4, the HyppTV cannot work.
But when you plug back to Lan Port 4, HyppTV works but Internet cannot be accessed via the HyppTV Set Top Box (STB).

But thanks to my brother who was playing around with the settings in the HyppTV Set Top Box, we discovered that you can enable Wifi on it and use Wifi connection to surf the Internet from the HyppTV Set Top Box while still be able to watch HyppTV IPTV channels via the dedicated IPTV Lan Port 4.

So using the Wifi connection, I can go to the Google Play app and install apps like KODI.

Just click on settings and under Wireless & Network, ensure that the checkbox to Enable WLAN has been ticked/enabled.

HyppTV STB not able to sideload apk files - Update 1

After receiving firmware updates specifically for this Set Top Box, I can now sideload apk file of apps using a thumbdrive and ES File Explorer.


For those of you who have encountered the page cannot be displayed error message with an Error Code 108005, and also problems with not able to connect to the NTP server, below are my workaround solutions.

ErrorCode: 108005

At the same time I also encountered the NTP Server error message too.

After trying the whole day, I managed to solve both problems.

The solution is to set it to another NTP server by changing the IP Address of the default one to 128.199.84.169

After trying all sorts of things and by random chance, I managed to solve this issue by fiddling around with the Set Ethernet option.

What I did was I changed it from Static IP to DHCP and did a reboot. After that my HyppTV IPTV connection was re-established and I could watch my HyppTV Channels.

Solution to missing YouTube app after firmware update by TMnet

For those of you who lost the Youtube app on your HyppTV Set Top Box, I managed to find a solution on how to get YouTube back.
You will need to install Kodi or SPMC (I prefer SPMC) first. Then after that install the YouTube Kodi Add-on

i have same problem as lucifer93. If using different LAN Port, cannot access to Play Store and if try to download from browser, it says download not supported. please help

U must understand. If u wanna watch hypptv, u need to plug it into that special LAN port for hypptv. If u need internet access, u have to enable WiFi via the STB settings.

That special LAN port is only to receive Hypptv TV channels.

Just received ec6108v8 after new unifi installation.
With both wifi and lan2 or lan3 combination, google play cannot connect. youtube also cannot connect.
Using browser is OK, can connect to internet, watching youtube, etc.
Tried force stop, clear data, etc.
Any other ideas, please?

I had the same problem initially ( see my earlier post). Then one day I noticed my internet connection very slow. Then suddenly I noticed my Hypptv STB settings menu looked different , and I figured they must have push out some firmware update to my Hypptv STB.

Immediately I turn on the WiFi on my Hypptv STB, and tried both YouTube and Google Play app. Finally it worked.

So maybe u also need to wait for a firmware update
