What is iptv?
Unlike traditional cable and satellite TV signals that are transported over expensive infrastructure owned by media corporations, IPTV service delivers TV content over the public internet to your TV or streaming devices. IPTV service supports streaming on Smart TV, phone, tablet, Android box and Windows PC. With an internet connection, a smart TV or streaming device and an IPTV subscription, you can watch your favorite TV programs wherever you go.
Do I need VPN service?
It is highly recommended to have VPN service while using IPTV to protect your online identity, your external IP address. There are many reputable VPN services such as IPVanish, ExpressVPN, and NordVPN.

After receiving an activation confirmation email and if you still get a username/password screen, it means that the MAC address you provided does not match the one in the STB Emulator settings. Please double check the MAC address and provide your provider with the correct one.
If you get a “Host not found” error message, it usually means that you typed the Portal URL incorrectly or your device is not connected to the internet.
If you receive a message stating that the firmware is outdated, it most likely means that you have entered the Portal URL incorrectly. Back to the top
