I have one on my "dumb" TV. What are you looking to do?

Just trying to figure out what we actor it does. And pros and cons and such

If you only have Wi-Fi access (also needs to be strong signal) near the TV you plan on using, I would say its good, you do have to clear some "cache" occasionally, look up Fire Stick Maintenance on YouTube for the how to.

But if you have LAN that you can access for that TV I highly recommend the Roku 3, double the price but its great.

I have both because of the Wi-Fi only in a room. I don't feel like running Cat-5.

i have the fire box and I love it. my wifi is kinda crappy but I dont have much buffering at all. you can use your netflix on it or amazon prime has lots of free videos. i ditched cable for this

Can you still watch regular tv through it?

Well your digital channels will still play through your antenna on a different source

I just use a cheap set of rabbit ears and get abc, nbc, cbs, fox, and a bunch of lpb channels

I would recommend roku 3 also. fire stick is not as fast

Thanks for the info gents

Check on the ott box mxq on ebay and this site http://kodipie.com/ for info

get a HD antenna. 10 bucks

HD antenna, Roku 3 with Hulu and Sling TV is my new set up. Don't miss cable at all. Saving $75.00/month.

best 25 dollars i ever spent. got mine installed with Kodi.

Cancelled my $250 cable with Cox a few weeks ago. HD antenna, Amazon Fire Stick, and Netflix. Pay $63/month for LUS Fiber and $11/month for Netflix.

I'm about to pull the plug as well on direct tv.

I should probably do the same, but I just can't do without Fox news.:cry:

How do you guys get your football games with these setups? ESPN APPs?

Sling TV has ESPN and espn2. And you can add the SEC network for an extra monthly fee.
