Q: I have a traveling trailer. And have a older TV. What type do I need for traveling
A: The Roku 1 is the only model currently on the market that has the connection for the AV component cable (white, yellow, and red plugs) typically seen on older TVs.
Q: Streaming
A: First, get aRoku that is right for your tv. Then you need to subscribe to a streaming service like Netflix, Hulu. Then get ready to cut your cable!!
Q: Can a router be used for WiFi and Netflix, or we need to seperate gagdets.
A: Yes it can...The Router (other wised called the wireless router) is what actually gives you wireless Internet (wifi). The router takes the Internet from your modem and converts it into a wireless internet signal. This now allows you to use devices that need wifi for internet access (like I-pads and tablets). Once you buy a router you can now purchase a Roku Streaming Media Player. This will allow you wireless internet access to Netflix as well as other movie Apps. I would suggest you read reviews and purchase a good router from a reputable company like NetGear. The better the router the more powerful your wireless Internet signal will be. Think of it as radio reception..if you have a cheap radio; your reception will be horrible but if have good radio your reception will be much better. I also suggest that you place a security pass code on your router signal (iHow to nstructions are included with Router purchase); this will prevent your neighbors from stealing your wifi signal. They won't be able to access your wifi without the password....Hope this helps..
Q: Can I completely eliminate basic cable, since I really only watch channels 2-30?
A: Yes you can.I gave the cable company there box back but kept the internet.I use ampified rabbit ears for local channels and watch Hulu on my roku for the few channels I watch.I only wanted A&E and history channel.I got tired of pay $120.00 a month for a few channels. Take the plunge and get rid of cable.
Q: does it have closed caption
A: Yes! Even using an HDMI cable. You can turn them on in the Roku settings, but some of the applications need to have them turned on in their own settings.
Q: what is the difference between the roku l and the roku 2.?
A: You will need the SE model since it has composite RCA jacks on it. It will work for you !
Q: Roku 1 question....regarding Youtube
A: Roku 1 will work great with Youtube! Add the Youtube to your home screen and you will stream youtube content without any problems. Enjoy!
Q: What is the difference between this one and the100$ one
A: The only difference is the remote. the Roku 3 ($99) come with a romote that you can speak into and fine the movies/shows you want. It also has a headset that attached to the remote. If you don't think you will use these features save the money and get the Roku 2. have a friend who got the 3 and the voice thing was fun for awhile but he no longer uses it. He never used the headset.
