The hell? My tv doesnt have any usb port on it.Power over HDMI was one of the things I was disappointed to see that the fire stick doesn't do but the chromecast does. Not a dealbreaker by any means but it would have been nice.
it comes with a micro usb cable and AC adapterThe hell? My tv doesnt have any usb port on it.
Just one of the ones I ordered today.Can I just get a Tv with an HDMI port and plug this directly into it? Or maybe just a monitor with hdmi? Planing on using it with Freetime and parental controls for when the wife wants to watch tv and the kids are fighting over it to. Hoping there are some amazon controller games the girls will like to play then it's basically a cheap console for <5 yr olds.
I've had to do a few hard reboots. And retype passwords. It's kind of annoying.I had an incident yesterday where my FireTV Stick got disconnected from my wifi and wouldn't reconnect until a hard reboot. I had it connected to the 5ghz radio, and it wouldn't even switch to the 2.4ghz one. After I put in the password, the networking screen said 'Connected with problems', although my other devices were functioning normally.
Not sure if it's an isolated incident or not, but I'll be keeping an eye out for it in the future.
I was under the impression that this came already configured for your account, was that not the case?I'm having issues as well. I can get the stick to connect to my WiFi but I cannot get it to accept my Amazon authos to login to my account. Has anyone seen this issue and any way to resolve?
It appears like it was supposed to but no mine was not. I had to open a CS ticket about the issue and their response is basically unregister/register the stick and reboot it and try again.I was under the impression that this came already configured for your account, was that not the case?
