    Does anyone know of it's possible to buy a 3rd party Magnet IPTV box? The Amino one is pure shyte and I don't really see the point in renting one from Magent themselves.

    We can give you a Magnet+ box, this may improve service.

    The most honest one possible. At the time of writing I did not know precisely what the service problem the customer was having.

    Thus I cannot be sure if the new box will remedy it. In most cases it does but one cannot be 100% sure without knowing the circumstances.

    There doesn't seem to be any other options so I'll try renting a box from yous. pm sent with account num and phone num.

    The prob with the service is there's a horrible lag between changing channels (>= 2 seconds). You end up flicking past the channel you want and waiting for it to catch up and then trying again. Plus, it looks quite pixely sometimes.

    No problem, I'll look into your whole pack and we'll see what we can do for you.

    Some of the newer packs might help you smooth out the price of rental.
