Will this work with my outdoor antenna and older tv null

I have mine connected an outdoor antenna, but regarding the older tv, you must have access to the Tablo app on the TV to use it. I wouldn’t expect an older TV would have that app available, but if you use a streaming device it would have it. Make sure you use the Blue colored app, not the older legacy (white) version with this new Tablo device. For me it works perfectly.

We had trouble with it due to our older TV so we returned it.

Qualified yes. From your outdoor antenna, make sure your signal is carried by coax -- that is the connection on the Tablo 4th Gen. As for your "older TV," your best bet is to use a streaming device such as Amazon Firestick or Roku connected to an HDMI port on your TV. Teh Tablo itself pushes its signal into your wifi network, then your TV has to connect to wifi to receive it.

You need the Tablo app to watch. That can be on a ROKU device or fire stick (or smart TV). I use ROKU. All these streaming devices use HDMI connections, so if you have that on your TV, and already are using a streaming device, you are good. Just add the Tablo app.

It has a normal “coax” input (round thick cable) for the antenna so you need that type of connector to your outdoor antenna. If your TV has an HDMI connector you can use a streaming stick like a Fire TV stick to use the Tablo.

Yes provided you have the proper connection on the older TV .
