Just order a $39 firestick and load it on. I'm not all that computer literate and it only took like 10 minutes using the step by step guide posted above.
I didn't pay extra, it came without my knowledge - it was 68 bucks delivered same day. It also included a pretty sweet screen saver that says GooBang Doo in the standard skin.

I wanted to have a box with a little more power than a Firestick plus I didn't get one on Prime day -I was also not about to pay full price a few days later. The idea was to customize the box from the ground up but alas now I have to do a remodel.


Edit:
Speed test from the TR maintenance add on says my speed is running at 1/2 mbps lol

I'll connect to ethernet and see what happens but i was hoping to run this thing on wi-fi
I had the same problem - who makes your device? I did a firmware update (was a pia) but now I got 10+ and can stream everything.

These boxes out of the box aren't really ready for primetime. They sell them with horrible remotes, fucked up firmware, etc but once you get them set up it's game changing. You can cancel your cable, your netflix, whatever if that's your goal.

The war is coming on these boxes. I dk how but they are trying to figure out how to stop it for sure.
