Hey guys, I have some questions on IPTV setups. I never had IPTV so some things I don't understand. I purchased a Formuler Z8 Pro box.

1. Will I be able to use the MyTVOnline 2 with the service or do I need to download another app?
2. Do I need to provide the device MAC address or do I use a STB emulator (From my understanding this is to generate a disposable MAC address)?
3. If I change providers and the MAC is not released from the reseller what happens?
4. Does it matter from what county I buy the service or is is best to use someone in my own country?
5. Can I use my VPN with the service?
6. Is the M3U portal URL all I need from my reseller and does it include a EPG? Do I need to setup a password or account?

see above link, there is an explanation how to setup mytvonline with mac address ;)

3. If I change providers and the MAC is not released from the reseller what happens?
if you change the iptv provider, you need to update portal url on your device and send your mac address to new provider and everything should be fine.

4. Does it matter from what county I buy the service or is is best to use someone in my own country?
you can buy wherever you want, but you should test the service first, e.g. here:

5. Can I use my VPN with the service?
based on the iptv provider, e.g. rapid iptv = vpn is allowed.

6. Is the M3U portal URL all I need from my reseller and does it include a EPG? Do I need to setup a password or account?
this question needs to be answered by your iptv provider but if you choose rapid iptv, you can test the service first, it include full epg ;)
