    We upgraded to this model and paid extra to get the feature that controls the TV as well and only need one remote. All that feature does is turn the TV on and off. It does not include mute so we still need the two remotes.

    This device is very under powered by its processor. Too much lag between button pushes and response times. Got the higher powered 4k unit with no issues.

      Hi there, thanks for taking a moment to share your feedback with us. Signal strength can vary due to factors and we're here to help!

      This Roku device is a streaming player that connects to 2.4 GHz wireless bands only. You'll want to ensure that the wireless connection you are connected to is a 2.4 GHz wireless network. Be sure that your router is within range of the device and avoid obstructions like cabinets and walls when possible.

      Other devices currently accessing the network, such as other streaming players, computers, game consoles, and mobile devices may effect the quality of your network connection. You might want to temporarily stop using any such device and check if that makes a difference.

      If you're continuing to have troubles, please reference our helpful FAQ article: http://go.roku.com/connectivity. This page will provide you with common concerns, troubleshooting, error codes, and recommended actions.

      We hope this helps!

    I encountered a problem. Reported it. Discovered that a lot of other users were experiencing the same problem. Roku did nothing about it. I am now back with Amazon Fire Stick. No problems there!

    Roku no longer contracts with spectrum so you cannot download the app and watch live TV with your spectrum account. That was the entire point of this purchase. I will be returning it.

    Don't like this service, useless. Don't need a TV service telling I'm not watching because I'm not changing channels enough.

    I was unhappy with this Roku because the signal from the TV and the Roku would get jumbled so instead of navigating the Roku the tv volume would go up and down.

    Perfect for me

    I first bought three to replace older streamers that won't support Netflix after 12/31 (2 to use and one spare). After hooking them up, I was so impressed with their performance that I ordered 2 more for a total of 5 to cover all my TVs. These streamers are fantastic!! I used the last 3 to augment wi-fi Blu-Ray streamers because they had more content choices and were faster to access. Now they're all covered and I'm very happy with the exceptional value and outcome . Highly recommend!!
