Just for the ones who intend to connect their MAG 256 via an USB Wi-Fi dongle.
Notice: my Wi-Fi connection is fast!
I gave it a shot and bought this USB Wi-Fi dongle:
https://www.amazon.fr/gp/aw/d/B015TCA2EM/
I plugged it into the USB at the back oft the box, rebooted my MAG 256, went to Settings - Network - Wireless (Wi-Fi) - Auto (DHCP), selected my network, entered the Key/passphrase and saved the settings.
Then I tried both, siptv portal and rapids middleware stalker portal...
Works like a charm and definitely is an option if needed

Hi new to forum so bear with me
I purchased a mag box about 3 weeks ago & suscription via ebay

The 1st week seemed ok a few glitches but not annoying
This week either no channels or most glitching, freezing ect
Pretty sure someone will tell me were i am going wrong
Thank you

Following reply posts I went an bought myself a MAG256 only to be informed by RapidIPTV that it is not possible to switch from VU+ to Magbox yet. They are still developing a way how this can be done. Unbelievable! This means that information in this community is not reliable and misleading.
The info is reliable.
harryporter is 100% right when he replies to you that it is possible.
Had you been with a reseller it would be very easy for us to add a MAG box to your active line while you still could use your E2 box (VU+), VLC, smartphone and more.
This is easily done in the new panel, why Rapid can't do the same for you is a mystery, I'll give you that.
Definitely unexpected. They should be using the very same panel as us.. Maybe check again ?
I would have given you the exackt same answer as Daniel simply because I've done it more than once.

If you don't mind using another portal, then get your playlist URL, head over to http://sip******* WARNING FRAUD **DON'T BUY** PLEASE REPORT TO ADMIN *******/mylist/
Add your playlist URL and mag mac address.
Then add sip******* WARNING FRAUD **DON'T BUY** PLEASE REPORT TO ADMIN ******* portal to your box.
At least give it a try, you have a free week to test it.

I dont know why this problem has occred but one thing is for shure that you must ask RAPID Support or @IPTV Community to give you your dadshboard account where you can activate mag box by yourself and manage lines also,

Just for info of this community (which I erroneously at first was a Rapid IPTV channel of communication) I am now in direct exchange with Raid IPTV on this issue who informd me "are working on it". But for the record I cannot understand why it takes Rapid IPTV more than a week to activate a MagBox. Doesn't say much about customer care, does it?
Thanks for our input however.

I just bught this for about a month ago. I cant use it with wifi, lagging. I have a fiber 100/100 connection and a Linksys EA 9500 router. It is about 3,5 meter between the box and only 1 wall between(wood not concret).
Does it work with wifi for you guys. I paid twice as much compared to the regular one and cant use wifi.
Also when i change region my sound goes crazy and they all talk like smurfs. Issues fixes itself if I turn the box of a couple of time and let it "rest" but takes 30 min to couple of hours. Is the box or the provider?
