I've been looking at the Informir Mag256 . Is that any good
I would personally advise “not to use magbox”.
They burnt bridges not to long ago.
(thrust is important)!
As its new adventure into new TV service i advise 4GB RAM android boxes that allows you to run an app from your provider, if they provide one. If not there is many many options out there.
Also a VPN can be installed with needing to FTP files or buy routers.
Really the world is your ouster, so much choice. But good box and a good provider should cost no than a good pi$$ up in the town centre for a night, and that covers you for a year.
Just stay away from from £20/£30 year lines, good providers have there own sites with ticket services.
Faceless-book, dirt-bay and other places gives a the lowest of the low.
Google is your friend for servers.
Nice wee box at great price in “android Q96 max”.
