In the guide below, we will show complete Roku Setup for the Roku Streaming Stick+. However, this guide will also work all variations of the device including Roku Express, Premiere, and Ultra.

NOTE: TROYPOINT always suggests using an android powered device such as a Firestick or Fire TV for streaming. This is due to the side-loading abilities these players provide that allows users to install 3rd party applications not available in the device's App Store.

Although we cover Roku devices on this Website, we don't recommend them due to their closed system. We recommend the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K due to its low price and ability to easily Jailbreak it which will allow for free movies, TV shows, live channels, sports, games, and more.

Note: After setting up your Roku device, I suggest viewing our Jailbreak Roku Guide.

Roku Setup Continued

Once your device is setup you are now able to stream content with your preferred applications.

Some of the most popular Roku Channels include:

Netlifx
Hulu
Disney Plus
Amazon Prime Video
Youtube TV
Plex
Sling
and more

While some of these apps are free to install, many require a monthly subscription for use.

If you are looking for free applications with no subscription or monthly fees, you will need a device that runs the Android Software. This includes the popular Amazon Fire TV Stick 4k.

Many purchase this because of it's "jailbreak" ability that removes Amazon restrictions allowing for installation of unauthorized apps.

Can I Use Multiple Roku's in One Household?

Yes, since Roku uses your HDMI Input port, a Roku can be setup on any TV that has this capability.

How Do you Connect Roku to Wi-Fi?

Open Settings within the device and choose your network to connect to. If it is not available, you may want to reset your router.

How Do You Jailbreak a Roku?
