Yes. Roku boxes are physically attached to your TV. So, one box per TV.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You need a ROKU for each TV, but they don't have to be Ultra. We have one ultra and two regular.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you are switching to streaming services on each TV, you will need either a "smart" TV with builtin streaming services or a Roku "device" on each TV (or Chromecast, or Apple TV device or one of the several other possibilities like Amazon Firestick).. Smart TVs have streaming services baked in. Both of my TVs have builtin streaming services builtin, but they are not very good. That limits what services you can subscribe to, so I have a Roku device on each one. In my humble opinion, Roku is the best choice, followed by Chromecast, followed by Apple TV. Now they don't have to be Roku Ultra. There are a number of other choices like a Roku streaming stick which is much cheaper than the Ultra, in fact I got my streaming stick for free when I subscribed to the DirectTV Now stream. They all seem to perform fairly well. The big advantage to the Roku Ultra is that it has a port for plugging in an ethernet cable rather than using wireless. Unless you have relatively reliable and fast wireless, you will get pauses and drop outs if they struggle to receive the data stream fast enough, especially if you are streaming in HD or 4K, which require more bandwidth. Wireless speed and real data throughput can suffer a great deal if you have many other interfering devices on the 2.4 and 5 GHz wavelengths, things like wireless phones, close neighbors with other wireless access points and even microwave ovens. I wound up doing lots of testing after I cut the cord and was amazed how inefficient wireless can be as compared to a wired ethernet connection.Even though I test at 100Mb./sec at my Comcast modem, when I speed test my wireless routers I found in some places in my home that my speed drops as low as 10 Mb/sec or at times wore. Below around 10 Mb/sec, you will probably not have reliable service.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Depends, you can hook up three Roku devices to their own TVs or you can use one for all three TVs. However if those TVs are not 4K TVs you may not get the full potential out of the Roku Ultra as they are 4K capable.
