Don't need internet connection to watch live TV. Don't know about android tablet (would depend on having correct drivers available). Don't *have* to download anything before use, but it's always good to check the company web site (in their support section) for any software updates for the device.

Well, no, you don't need an Internet connection... It connects via coaxial cable from the wall. Pretty obvious if you look at the product and description/features.What do you mean, "work with an Android tablet"? It's a USB device for desktop computers.You should download the drivers, for one. And the software, unless you have Windows Media Center.

No internet connection needed to watch live TV. I think you may need internet to update any TV scheduler for recording from Media Center if you use it for that though. I can only speak from my experience, but as far as I can tell it doesn't work with my android tab (generic 7" ICS 4.0) from USB and they don't have Android drivers on their website. Based on that, I would say it is not Android compatible. It may still work with an app that allows you to connect to your Windows desktop for Android (such as Splashtop) but I have not tried this myself.

Not my setup, although I expect yes. It may require a laptop to set up initial network (I needed the usb connection), but after that will work fine with solely a tablet.

Use this tablet to stream netflix as well. Had no issue streaming as long as the wifi signal was strong.

If you have an HDMI connection on your HDTV, yes it works great. I have Netflix and hooked up my Asus Zen tablet to stream movies without any problems. Also, if you use a wireless mouse and keyboard, you can surf the net using the TV as the monitor.

It's an android pc, and you can watch programs via Netflix, Hulu, or via your browser. All you need to watch video is a wireless high speed connection, and a monitor or TV with a HDMI interface.This is not live television, there is no TV tuner built into this device.

You can only use what is downloaded to the tablet without a wifi connection otherwise you have to purchase a data plan. Hope this was helpful! Let me know if I can help you with anything else!

This device is all about just like an Android tablet. As long you have WiFi on and within the range, then you just browse it. If MLB.TV is an app that you can install to it and play from. Thanks

If you have wifi in your house, it is fairly easy to follow the setup and connect to your home network. The tv then has some apps that are ready to go (YouTube, Facebook, Skype, etc.). As I mentioned in a previous review, no browser so you can't just go to any website you want, only what the apps allow.

I never tried youtube. Netflix worked for the short time that the tablet worked. you need to download an app. for whatever you want to run

This model and mine run the same Droid OS. First, you must have an ACTIVE Netflix account to use it. Once the app is installed you still have to LOG IN with your information. I sideloaded (downloaded and installed the app through another app) the Netflix app onto mine. I think I got mine through GetJar which should already be on your tablet. Or try the Google e-reader app which has other apps in it. Once it has 'successfully' downloaded and installed it should work, IF you have an active Netflix account. Mine works perfectly on both my Kyros and Kindle Fire HD.

Do you need anti virus? Would a 2gb micro card be enough for firmware update or would we need at least 8gb? Just want to use for simple tasks....Should we keep Bank info off this tablet? Thanks Alot!

It doesn't provide internet service. It adds wifi to an existing internet connection. If your tablet is wifi capable, it will work for your tablet.

I use Droid TV and watch all my shows. They download to your tablet and then you can watch them anytime from anywhere without internet connection. I love it!

You can watch Netflix if you can get the device to work. I bought 3 of them and returned all 3 the very next day. They reboot nonstop and could not do anything with this device. I would not recommend this device. I bought the Artchros tablets and have no problems so far, they are also 9 inches and comes with the Google play store preinstalled and yes Netflix works great in it too.
