This is probably the cheapest best value out there. Unfortunately from my location it only gets the major channels altogether about seven channels
I recommend spending more on a better product

Apple - 12.9-Inch iPad Pro with Wi-Fi - 128GB - Gold

i was so excited when i got the 12.9" ipad with the pecil, i even drove 15 miles to a store that had it in stock. The only cool and innovative part of the device is the pencil. If you are someone who likes to draw- it would be a perfect match. i believe it is otherwise an extremly expensive tablet with mediocre diplay and entirely too big for everyday use. Even my 6 year old got bored after a few hours. I returned it and got a competitors device (cant mention names or this will not post). Absolutely Love it

This is an excellent unit although i have noticed overall quality drop over the years with Garmin gps units. I like the updated software though with voice command there are more steps to get going though. Few years back all you had to do is say: voice command, then find address and followed by street address. It recognized the area you were in and instantly gave you the address. Now with new software you are prompted for the entire address including state and even then it asks to confirm with a list of options. It takes more steps and is a bit cumbersome for someone who inputs a lot of addresses constantly.
The units are now also all plastic and feel cheap but still good value for the price if you use it a lot and cant put in addresses manually
I had several Garmin units in the past few years
And found that it doesnt really make a difference whether you choose to get the more expensive unit- same software, more prone to theft.

Absolute recommend all the way. Look no further. Like yourself i owned many routers over the years. Nighthawk beats them all by (fill in whatever you can imagine)
You will set it, and completely forget you own a router (except for times of slow comcast speeds and outages). I love it.
Amount of throughput going through it is astounding me at times. I have many devices plus a server and nothing gets it down. No buffering like with others. Truly amazing

I went through several different devices ranging from Garmin Fenix 3, Microsoft band, basis peak, Garmin 235, and Fitbit blaze.
Fitbit has by far the best app, Garmin Fenix is most expensive and 235 is very nice but the Garmin app is terrible. Basis peak has the best sleep measurement and heart monitoring of them all.
Overall blaze is the best value for the price. Does a good job with sleep measurements and heartrate. It definitely has the best app of them all, and if you're working out this is probably the best option as well. Again there is obviously some features like downloadable apps that the expensive Garman Phoenix has that are missing on the blaze- but you get for what you pay.

I think fitbit will sell a lot of these devices
I've had it for about two months now, it stands to wear and tear very well looks great and at $199 is a great value

Huawei - Watch 2 Sports Smartwatch 45mm Plastic - Carbon Black
Monitor your physical activity with this Huawei Watch 2. Its lightweight ceramic bezel resists abrasion, and it provides workout data reports with heart rate monitoring and GPS mapping, helping you meet fitness goals. This Huawei smart watch is resistant to water and dust, protecting it from accidental splashes.
Can you change the bands on the sports watch?
Yes it can be done very easily and you can install any 20 millimeter band as long as it has an easy Snap-on installation like the he original. I tried attaching a picture of the back of my watch but was unable to, but trust me a five-year-old could do it.
By the way I had my Huawei 2 sport watch for at least three months and would Highly recommend it.

Will this work with a new imac desktop and mack-book pro, both new as late 2015 and 2016
Absolutely. Not only that- it will make it 'fly'. Wifi was invented by Apple (if Im not mistaken), but then perfected by others, i.e. Netgear

Wired Network Connection
My TV is in a separate room from the computer and router. How can the Roku be set up since there is no cable from the TV to the router? Will I have to purchase a wireless bridge to complete the set up ?
It has a very simple connection wizard. It will detect a wired connection, or in your case It will ask to set up a wireless one to your router.

You are going to need an hdmi cable and if you're not planning to connect to your router wirelessly a cat 5 cable as well.
