This is the first xiaomi tv box designed for use outside China.

Setting up
=======
Setting up the Mi Box is a breeze, if you opt for the manual option, the on-screen guide will walk you through the process of connecting the device to your home Wi-Fi, and to login to playstore. There is an automatic option but I did not use it.

Tips
===
1. Install es explorer: ..Use es explorer to install apps from thumbdrive, network drive or cloud drive.

2. Install TV launcher 3 (or other launchers such as sideload, HAL) from playstore: ..With these launcher, you can launch sideloaded apps easily.

3. Install "set orientation": ..Need this app to run certain handphone apps.

4. Install "Android TV remote contol" or "Android TV" on android phone / Iphone :..Much better keyboard compared to the default onscreen keyboard.

5. Install "DNS Changer": works with unblock youku DNS to geo-unblock some China sites.

Signed with Starhub 1GB fiber at a gd price and the speed test shown more than 200.

Actually even before using Fiber, my old tvboxeswere working very well.

I remember too that there are a local and intl speed. Also the speed is dependent on various factors as well.

Sorry unable to provide in more details because my main concern is can be used at min. disruptions if impossible to get no disruption. Problems in the past were such as line dropped, slow speed and etc.
So far so good and happy with the connectivity and speed.
