The Fire TV Stick is a streaming device that relies on Wi-Fi to access content from streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, YouTube TV, and others, as well as to use Alexa voice features and download apps. Here's what you need: Active Wi-Fi connection: The Fire TV Stick connects to your home Wi-Fi network to stream content Internet service: You'll need a broadband internet connection (Amazon recommends at least 5 Mbps for HD streaming) HDMI port on your TV: To plug in the device Without internet, the Fire TV Stick won't be able to stream content or access most of its features. However, if you've previously downloaded certain content for offline viewing through specific apps (like Prime Video's download feature on mobile), you won't be able to access those downloads on the Fire TV Stick itself—it's designed primarily as a streaming device.
