      I use GSE IPTV and Smarters IPTV apps on apple TV, and other apple devices. You need the latest Apple TV though as those apps have to be added, the older models dont let you add apps. The Apple TV 4K 64 GB is $199.

      Smarters IPTV is available for Windows also.

            I've had Nitro for 18 months, highly recommend it. I get no kickbacks. I have it on Apple TV, no buffering at all. I get 427 local channels, every one works.

                Is it really this simple?

                You can be up and running in 6 minutes?

                        Probably depends which IPTV provider you're using, but yes, it is very quick setup. When I did mine I got an email right away with login info. Just downloaded the app and signed in.

                          So if I follow the exact instructions in this video, and pay for the nito service... 6 minutes later I'm watching PPV?

                          I'll go buy a fukkin Firestick right now if that is the case.

                          Sad thing is that I have TWO firesticks somewhere in this house and never used them and don't know where they are.

                          I should probably get a new one anyways to get the latest and greatest? The ones I have are 1-2 years old.

                            I'll admit I didn't even watch the video, just speaking from experience. I use a Helix reseller. As soon as I paid, I got an email with my login info. Just needed to download the app, which only takes a couple minutes and pop in my login info.

                            The newest version will probably work better, but the last gen is probably just fine.

                                Should I get the regular fire stick or the 4K one for $10 more?

                                  Rudy not sure if you’ve gotten any answers but here’s my 2 cents. Have Firestick with IPVansish and SportzTV. Almost no buffering issues at all (occasional ESPN during MNF)..$14.95 a month for all. Most of the time I find a Network alternative (cbs nbc abc fox) and just pick up a game from another network. Here’s some info that might help. Troypoint.com

                                  Edit. You need a 2nd generation Firestick.

                                    I'm pretty sure the specs are basically the same other than the 4K aspect, I'd just do the regular one myself.

                                      Also ISPs can cut your Internet after a warning letter or two for streaming illegal tv

                                      Tons of mis information here

                                      Also Using a VPN reduces your Internet speed 30 to 50%




                                      Be careful

                                              You get what you pay for. Paid IPTV can work. Gold standard is SmoothStreams but hard to get in unless you know someone. $99 a year via bitcoin. This was todays offerings.

                                                  Some channels are basically unwatchable. Mostly the PPV movies, way to much buffering.

                                                  NFL Red Zone too much buffering.

                                                  NFL ticket is not as bad, but it buffers every few minutes.

                                                  Regular tv channels seem fine.

                                                  Why are some channels worse than others?

                                                  What kind of internet speed do you need for this shit to work good?

                                                  I'll have to test NBA League Pass and NHL Center Ice.

                                                  SO many channels now though:

                                                    NFL Red Zone too much buffering.


                                                    NFL ticket is not as bad, but it buffers every few minutes.

                                                    Regular tv channels seem fine.

                                                    Why are some channels worse than others?

                                                    What kind of internet speed do you need for this shit to work good?

                                                    I'll have to test NBA League Pass and NHL Center Ice.

                                                      NFL ticket is running smooth as shit now.

                                                      NFL RedZone buffers every 20 seconds. It's dog shit.

                                                        Most buffer on busy days like today

                                                        Normal days ok

                                                        I don’t care what you pay for IPTV it buffers heavy volume sports

                                                        Great internet direct connections will still buffer

                                                          I have DirecTV and for some reason ABC Local and ESPN always fukk up during Big Time National Coverage Sporting Events. Definitely not a coincidence... people tuning in.... and something can't handle the load.

                                                          It's total bullsh#$. People shouldn't pay $100 a month for the sh#$ not to work. No matter what time of the day. You call customer service and they act like there's nothing wrong. Like you're the first one to call today. lol fukking joke.

                                                          You turn on ABC Local and/or ESPN with a talk show on.... you never have a problem. Clear crisp signal.

                                                            So hey, at least there is that.

                                                              What kind of box or stick are you using for it? I heard if you use a box with about 2GB of Ram it works a hell of a lot better. 4GB is optimal though. There should be some youtube videos about it.

                                                                        The reason there is so much buffering is due to the xtreamcodes takedown. Most people used them as the backend and now have to rebuild since the crackdown and have not found a way.

                                                                        So more then likely they are just restreaming off another provider cuasing buffering and audio sync delay issues
