What you need first
- A MAG 3xx/4xx/5xx, or a Formuler Z8, Z10 or Z11
- The MAC address printed under the box
- Your IPTVMEEZZY portal URL (sent once you share the MAC)

Getting it going
Send the MAC across
You will find it on the sticker under the box and under Settings, About device. On a MAG it opens with 00:1A:79. Snap the sticker and WhatsApp us the photo, then hold until we confirm the portal is live before you go on — nothing loads before that point.
MAG — key in the portal
Settings, System settings, Servers, Portals. Name Portal 1 anything, paste in the portal address we sent, save, and reboot the box. It will not load until that reboot happens.
Formuler — use MyTVOnline
Open MyTVOnline 2 or 3, choose Add Portal, and supply the name and the portal address. Or select Xtream Codes and use the standard login. A Formuler will also run Android players such as TiViMate if that is more your speed.
Reboot and confirm
Once it comes back up, the box loads the 25,000+ channels with its own guide. Bring up a channel to check, and use the remote colour buttons for favourites and the EPG.
When the picture plays up
It shows STB blocked or a blank screen
Either the MAC has not been switched on yet, or a character came through wrong when you sent it. Send a photo of the sticker rather than retyping the address, and it nearly always clears within minutes.
The best app for this screen

MAG and Formuler box — your questions
Is a MAG better than a Firestick here?
On a main TV in nightly use, yes: a better remote, a quicker guide, and never a sideload to worry about. Reckon on $130 to $220 against $40 to $60 for a stick. On a bedroom set the stick is the smarter spend and no one can tell the difference.
