If you don’t have a Premier iTek mini receiver, but have a compatible IPTV MAG digital box, we can help you set this up to receive your subscription at home. If you aren’t sure if your IPTV MAG box is compatible with Premier iTek please do contact us.
**If you are connecting your MAG box via wireless antennae instead of direct using the ethernet cable, please see below instructional video on how this is done before proceeding to the next step.
NEW SYSTEM SETUP (Once you have your MAG box connected to the internet)
Once the MAG box is connected to your TV via HDMI, and to your router via an Ethernet cable, insert the power cable.
The system when brand new (depending on the latest update installed) will usually load into the embeded portal, a screen with multiple rows, many icons, (e.g. home media, IPTV channels etc..) with a black background.
Once loaded please press SET/or cog setup button on the top of the remote in order to enter the service menu/system settings. (you will see below screen)

In short, IPTV is transmitting audio and video over a computer network instead of air-waves with an aerial.
IPTV = Internet Protocol Television.
Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is digital television delivered to your television through a high speed internet (broadband) connection.
In this service, channels are encoded in IP format and delivered to the TV through a set top box.
IPTV service also includes video on demand, which is similar to watching video CDs/DVDs using a VCD/DVD player.
How does it work?
IPTV converts a television signal into small packets of computer data like any other form of online traffic such as email or a web page. There are three main components of IPTV. First, the TV and content head end, where the TV channels are received and encoded and also other content like videos which are stored. The second component is the delivery network, which is broadband and landline network provided by a telecom operators such as MTNL.
The third component is the set top box, which is required at the customer location. The packets are reassembled into programming by software in the set-top box. This box is connected between the operator’s broadband modem and customer’s TV.
What are the advantages of IPTV?
The quality of digital video and audio is much better compared with the traditional analogue TV. With additional features, it can become interactive. They also may be able to use a 7 day catch-up feature in order to watch over their missed favourite programs. With video on demand, they can browse an online movie catalogue and watch the selected movies instantly.
Because IPTV uses standard networking protocols, it promises lower costs for operators and lower prices for users. Using set-top boxes with broadband internet connections, video can be streamed to households more efficiently than cable.
