U're lucky bro, what OS does urs run on? Mine runs on Remix OS with playstore and youtube pre-installed, the only other app is Kodi. Oh well let's see how it goes; am returning mine cos it looks as if it had been used and returned b4, maybe it's the same issue. But let's see how it pans out.

I use MXQ with Remix OS too. Where did you get yours?

I heard ntel streams better if you use LAN rather than WiFi connection.

Theorectically it should work better since there are no signal losses due to transmission. Unfortunately, I use a mifi not a router so I can't say for sure. But the network is okay sha, even though the signal is pretty weak here in yaba, but when I used it at festac/amuwo bros na fire.

See me oooo.......Ignorance at the highest level.... So can I get one like the Nvidia Shield TV from the US and then come and use it Nigeria? Also there was a time I had Kodi on my system and I'll see latest films and when I click on them, it'll show not available or sumtin else. How do I get access to latest films?

Simply use another addon like Phoenix, Exodus or Navi X (KODI)
Would not know about Nvidia Shield TV (Never used them before)

I am using Android box for almost 2 years now. It is cheaper but not that very reliable at times when network start to misbehave.

I am happy with it because, the one I use is dvb s2/t2 I.e I can switch to free to Air channels for my family use.

Recently I bought an android TV box, the image when connected to my 32" LED TV was superb, came with kodi v16.1 pre installed which has about 4000 TV channels including all the favourite channels you can think of .





Few days ago I subscribe 2gb of data for #1000 and I was able to stream about 2 live matches.

By calculation it seems streaming is more affordable now since it's a pay per view service, unlike Dstv where one is forced to pay about #15k per month for full bouquet subscription services for one to watch all live EPL matches, services you might not have time to enjoy due to factors like powe and time..just an observation anwaygrin
Now just imagine if you spent just half of that 15k on just data alone for a very stable connection. grin

Nigeria really hasn't gotten to the level where we would compare both. If we had stable internet that was affordable, DSTV would be probably be out of business but DSTV is still the best sadly as they deliver their content well with very exciting features from their Explora.

Internet connection is expensive and erratic in Nigeria so DSTV wins this. For now.
