mag424w3 vs 322

[rubery0151]

Hi

Just about to upgrade from a mag322 to a mag424w3 - has anyone had any issues with the servers being blocked on these new boxes?

Heard a few whispers but not sure if its true.

Thanks

It doesn't matter what device you're using it's the ISPs that are blocking the feeds.
Get yourself a VPN and you should be fine, but you will need a VPN router with a mag box.
You might be better getting a firestick as you can just put a VPN app onto it

why anyone would upgrade from a mag to a mag is beyond me especially in these times of isp blocks

I have a 4k firestick as well but they arent as fast as the mag 424w3 especially for streaming 4k content.

What else would you suggest I look at for hardware?

Some suppliers wont allow Mag boxes as they are the source of various leaks.

Much easier to use Android with app

Let me know if you have any ideas of an alternative?

Formuler boxes (z7+, z8, z+)
Nvidia Shield if you want to spend a bit more
Mid-range android box (many options)

It's a 4k stick that's what it's built for streaming 4k.
What broadband speed have you got? If it's not fast enough you will struggle with 4k.
Plus not much real 4k streams out there anyway
