    Bought this for my cord-cutting daughter, along with the Channels Apple TV app and an HD antenna. Worked surprisingly well. We did see some blocky, laggy transmission initially on some channels, but I think that was because her Apple TV was upstairs and was far away from the wireless transmitter when we tested at my home. Overall, was happy with the purchase.

      Wifi can definitely be a problem for video streaming sometimes. Sounds like you got it worked out though! Also, great call on the Channels app! Awesome software to go with a CONNECT Duo! Welcome to the HDHomeRun family!

    Best tuner out there

    I've been using HDHomerun products for three years now and their hardware has always been solid. I have them setup with Plex to record over the air channels and it works great. The quality of the stream is the same as it comes in from the antenna since it doesn't compress the signal. Overall I'm very satisfied with the tuner and have no complaints.

      What's really cool about HDHomeRun devices is that they stack. With a CONNECT DUO, you get 2 tuners. Then if you plug in another CONNECT DUO, you'll have 4 tuners. And if you plug in a CONNECT QUATRO after that, you'll have 8 tuners total, and you can use them all at the same time!

      Thanks for the review! Great to hear you're getting a lot of channels. A lot of times that depends a bit on your geography and your antenna, but for those with great lines, you can definitely get tons of channels. With that said, now even those people who only get the main network channels can supplement with our new Premium TV service. Welcome to the HDHomeRun family!

    I originally bought the 4-tuner Quad version in November 2017. The firmware was so bad, many channels didn't tune, even though they tune just fine on my HDHomeRun Extend. So I returned it. Took a chance and bought this Duo, sure enough there was new firmware (Dec '17) and this greatly improved the tuning functionality. Now it works great.

    I use this product to connect all my TVs to a single antenna that is upstairs. I have a large house that would have made running cables a pain and expensive. This device makes it easy to connect an antenna over WiFi. The app used to connect to the device is on many steaming devices (even on my phone).

    HD Homerun is a two tuner model. Good quality HD channels. We are about 37 air miles from Boston. You will need an HD antenna. We are able to receive approx. 39 channels. Most in HD.

    With this device connected to my PLEX server I am able to watch TV anywhere I can pick up a signal on my iphone. In addition, using the PLEX server with a connected USB drive I can record over the air programming and watch it whenever I want. This is a set it and forget it device. I love it

    This converter box works great but then again I'm only streaming two live channels at a time. Works great and is small enough to be hidden under the shelf unit where I kept my wireless router. Overall I'm happy and then two live streams is enough for the relatively few shows I record with the Plex DVR.

      One of the cool things about HDHomeRuns is they can be added to. So if you grab another HDHomeRun, you'll be able to add two or four more channels at once! Welcome to the HDHomeRun family!

      You can usually test if there's a problem with the app buy just downloading the HDHomeRun app somewhere else, like onto your phone, and seeing if you see the same problem there. Also, for all those using the app that came from putting in a code, we recommend deleting that one,and then just searching Roku for the HDHomeRun channel. There's a new, better version!
