Terrible for long term use

Absolute nightmare. We have gone through 2 of these devices in less than 20 months. they replaced the first oner for free but still very consistent pattern of failure. very poor quality devices.

Awesome!

Awesome! Great product, easy setup, very responsive. If there is a con, it would be that I can only stream one platform at a time. Not a big deal to me but I have no complaints.
