    We purchased this item as we were advised by the store staff that it would easily allow us to stream content from applications such as Amazon Prime Video. After over 10 days of attempting to integrate the device, we returned the device to the store and contacted Comcast to install the needed hardware / software.

    ive been thru 2 different Roku's already. One would not stop rebooting itself just after plugging it in and the other one had wifi problems. I know this is the budget version but still! This was garbage.

      Hi Mike, we're sorry to hear about your troubles. It sounds like there could be an issue with the strength of your wireless connection. Be sure that your router is within range of the device and avoid obstructions like cabinets and walls when possible.

      As a tip, you can check the strength of your internet connection by going to Settings > Network > Check connection. This will test the quality of the signal and also measure the speed of that connection, to be sure that your signal is strong enough.

      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!

    Get the Ultra

    I bought this because my Ultra was having sound issues, and I'd bought a protection plan for it. They had no Ultra's in stock, because Pandemic, so I took one of these home. It's slow. Really slow. Ultra is a much better buy, and has a USB port and micro SD card loader.

    I'm returning this because I wasn't aware of the fact that the remote control doesn't have volume or power control buttons. Why wouldn't you put volume or power buttons on a remote control?
