ya your right wrote down wrong letter ya thats all i use it for is iptv netflix or amazon prime

Keep in mind that these boxes are NOT netflix certified (very few are) and therefore the version of netflix installed on them is the generic Android version (not androidTV), so you will need a mouse cursor to navigate.

For mouse cursor control, I would recommend a remove like the ARQ-200. Would add simple gesture based mouse cursor control, and since it operates using RF (using USB dongle), you don't need line of sight for the remote (like most IR remotes).

it uses wifi

it uses wifi

Well.... Sort of

WiFi is RF, but it is specific channels only that are part of the 802.11 standard which defines WiFi. In this case, the remote uses general RF, since it is not the channels that are used for standard internet routers and all

So technically they are close. WiFi is RF, but not all RF is part of the WiFi standard.

I like the quick definition someone put on wikipedia:
Wireless LAN (WLAN) channels are frequently accessed using IEEE 802.11 protocols, and equipment that does so is sold mostly under the trademark Wi-Fi

So these remotes are RF, but not really Wi-Fi

so 2.4 is not wifi?

so it's like the old cordless home phones I guess?
