ClearStream TV

We could add nicknames and favorites. Obviously the performance of the device itself depends greatly on your antenna strength/location, your phone and performance of your wireless network. With that said, freaking awesome!!!

If you are cutting the cord, then plan on spending the next 3 months cable bill to make this work right. You need a proper antenna setup and a good router near the device. If you are trying to get out on the cheap then don’t try this...at least have some appreciation for learning your broadcasting options and how to receive signals correctly. Plan on having a router near this device. This device is awesome, but it needs a good signal from your antenna and it needs to be close to a router. Once you have that setup then all TVs on your router’s network with Roku will work. Thank you ClearStream, great product, I hope you keep making this product and not stop making it b/c of all the cheap-o dummies out there. Been using mine for over a year now.

1) It wouldn’t connect to my routers 5G network at all (other devices I have are) so use had no choice but to use my 2.4G network 2) Set up QoS so the device had the highest priority 3) I tried three different HD antennas, all with powered amplifiers & without, in 10 different areas (rooms in my house, outside & attic) and even on standard definition it was jittery. 4) Setup was lengthy, couldn’t “delete” or “remove” the device from the app 5) Scanning channels each time took over 6 minutes 6) Reset of the device took 5 attempts, following the app instructions exactly 7) Messed around with it for two days & a total of about eight hours with poor results 8) Device gets very hot Result: went back to an HD antenna without powered amplifier, had a better signal than the above & returned to store for a refund.

When it works it is only OK. Had to move within 6 feet of router, to get it to stream steadily. Setup had to be run over and over many times, to even get started. Customer service, no help at all. Crashes repeatedly, for no apparent reason. Very difficult to keep up and streaming. Requires almost daily adjustment and rescans, won’t hold channels. Clearstream says it runs hot. That is a real under statement. If I had young children, I would be afraid of. Certainly not the product, it should be. NEEDS A LOT OF IMPROVEMENT.

Shout out to the ClearstreamTV team for a great product and responsive tech support. iOS 13 created an incompatibility with HD channels, and they promptly updated the app to fix it. Back to watching ABC, NBC, FOX, CBS, PBS, etc in HD on all my devices for $0 per month.
