Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this after hearing nothing but rave reviews from friends and co-workers.
Out of the box this thing was a great device. Setup was fairly simple, and there were no hiccups.
After about 2 weeks of use I started to have some Audio issues while listening to MP3's.
Now, I bought this for Movie streaming, so I wasn't too concerned. About a week after noticing this, the device stopped seeing my windows shares.
After going back and forth with support for over a week, i was told to try a firmware recovery. This failed 4 times. Obviously showing a fault with the device. I was still going back and forth with support trying to get an RMA for this thing.
After giving them my serial number I was informed that my Device was no longer covered and that I'd have to pay $50 USD to get my PCH replaced...
That's all fine and good, except that I recieved the device less than a month ago.
This device works great... When it works.
Beware of PCH support, very quick to respond, but not the most helpful.
