    I'm being asked to review a product I did not purchase. I have not used my BB card in MONTHS so I think I'm being scammed!

    unfortunately the Roku unit lasted two weeks before it wouldn't work. Too bad I bought the Roku and had it sit in my house 4 weeks before I installed it. Now it is not returnable. Reminds me of the old cable boxes that crapped out so often and needed constant replacement.

    This is the worse. It would loose connection to the internet and at first I could do a factory reset but now, 29 days after picking it up, it won't even go out of the setup screen. The tv is in the same room as the router and it won't reset or anything.

    Hard to review as it was defective. Had to have tech support come out (great service!) and he ended up replacing the unit. The new one is fine and would get a 4 or 5 rating.

    The tp-link that I bought is not compatible with my router. There should have been a compatibility list as par of the product review.

    This crappy Roku is right next to my WiFi router but it constantly freezes. It takes at least 45 minutes to watch a 30 minute show. Also, it reloads my channels every single day. I don’t have these problems with my other devices.

    I could not "pair" it with my regular remote, and had to disconnect the Roku every time I wanted to watch regular television channels. We returned it to Best Buy. We were not satisfied with it and how it worked in our home.

    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!

    Cannot DL Spectrum

    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.

    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!
