    Very pleased with this project was easy to setup and I have most of the channels that I wanted. I think the total is 122. DVR works good still learning how to set and delete stuff.

    I would give this 5 stars, but they do not have a computer site for their software developed yet. They say it is in the works .... so we'll see. It does a great job recording and even has some extra channels you can watch through their tv schedule.

    Although the devise was simple to set up, it was not very reliable. Using the DVR function would often lead to partial recordings. After a couple of weeks, the device could no longer be found by the smart tv nor the app on iphone. Going to reset and try again but frustrated that I need to do that.

    The setup is fairly easy. And I enjoy using it, now I only have to have one antenna for my 4 TVs. I do have to say it works well with Roku, but using throught AppleTV you get more features, like looking through channels and still being able to watch the channel you're on.

    I had some really high hopes for this device, and honestly I can't say there was anything wrong with it...it just does not support my Samsung TV, which runs Tizen OS and not Android (which is what I thought it ran). Easy to setup (and take down once you realize it doesn't work with your tv...).

    It seems to be working well. Once in a while there seems to be a glich in the system and I have to try and start it over again. It does what I wanted it to do, record programs so that I can watch them when I want.

    I returned it because it requires a hard wire to my wifi, which is in my home office and a hard wire to my antenna, which is in my recreation room. All I want is a recorder of broadcast TV that connects to my upstairs TV and my antenna, both of which are in my recreation room.

    A Great Solution for Cable Cutters

    Distributing over the air signals has always been a pain. Those of us old enough remember the mass of splitters and switches needed to get signal to our tv's and VCR's in every room. The Tablo distributes your digital antenna signal to every TV in your household wirelessly with a picture that is as perfect as your digital antenna provides (it does come with a signal booster that can improve your reception). The menu is convenient and attractive and it breaks down movies, series, sports, and news shows that are available. The VCR is also a big convenience. The Tablo solves a lot of problems for anyone wanting to cut the cable.

    Does exactly what we needed it to do.

    This device is exactly what we needed. While we are fairly close to broadcast antennas, we needed to place our TV antennas near a window because of the thick brick exterior of our building. TVs were not in the right spot for this however, and running coax wasn’t practical. Built-in DVR is a plus!

    Your tv reception will only be as good as your tv antenna. The option of dvr is great. Still waiting for Apps to use on tv and not have to by Ruku. You still have to buy a hard drive to record effectively.

    This device works quite well considering I have a forest in my backyard. I receive 30 over the air channels in stable fashion. Roku and Tablo are connected to my router with high quality cables. The flat antenna is mounted outdoors between the window glass and screen. I used fishing line to fasten the top of the antenna to the screen. I protected the 5mm antenna cable with bicycle inner tube to allow for window closure over the top of it!
