FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
- What do you provide?
We provide quality streaming services directly through your internet connection. We implement relatively new technology used to stream thousands of live channels that are found on the internet to a compatible device or app. The internet has changed the world around us. Millions of people stream content over the internet and we provide you quick and easy access to those streaming sources.
-Do you own these IPTV servers?
KegMedia IPTV does not own the servers that we promote. We are simply a re-seller distributor of this service. We do not download, host, or redistribute content of any kind. We have no control over what channels are added or removed onto these servers. We have searched the internet for the most reliable and affordable streaming provider and strongly believe we have found it. We can state with absolute certainty that our provider offers the greatest selection of English, Sports and International content on the market and is extremely reliable and has very high quality servers.
- Which device do you recommend for IPTV?
We recommend you use a high or middle class Android box such as the 1) BuzzTV XRS4000, or 2) the FORMULER Z8 Android Dual Band 5G Gigabit LAN 2GB RAM 16GB ROM 4K, or 3) the 2021 Mag 524W3 4K, or 4) a Nvidia Shield. All of the above mentioned devices can be purchased on either Amazon or Ebay and work well with our KegMedia IPTV services.
– I’m getting buffering / freezing frequently. Why is this happening?
First thing to do is to restart your router, device and try again. This helps in many cases.
If the issue still continues, you have to test the internet speed directly from your device.
Open this website: www.fast.com directly from your streaming device. The download speed result should be at least 50 Mbps or higher.
If your device is not getting the proper speed or your internet provider is throttling your connection, you’ll experience buffering. For optimum results we recommend you connect and stream your device wired to a router or modem instead of streaming it solely on WiFi.

-What is a MAC address and why do you need it?
You’ll quite often hear the word “MAC address” being used when on our website. So what exactly is it? A MAC address is simply a unique identifier code that is used to link your device with our service when you use a MAG box, or an IPTV box, or STB Emulator.
The MAC address always takes on the form of 00:1A:79:XX:XX:XX (when you follow our instructions)
The MAC address can be found by following the setup instructions for your device. It usually requires you to download an app.
For some Multi-media boxes and MAG devices, the MAC address can be found under device settings or as an actual physical sticker on the box itself.
You will need to provide the MAC address when placing your order for a subscription.
-Where can I find my MAC address beginning with 00:1A:79?
On all IPTV-Set Top Boxes you can find this directly on the sticker underneath the box.
For all android devices you would need to download STB emulator and follow the instructions in our set up section. The steps are settings > profile > select the existing profile > STB configuration > here you will find the MAC address beginning with 00:1A:79.

- I see one channel has HD, SD, FHD but HD is not working. Why is that?
Many of the popular channels have 2 or 3 versions of the same channel streamed in (SD, HD, FHD). If one of them is down, the other very likely will work fine. In some cases we add an HD source on a SD named stream and vice versa. In this way, our customers will have more options and won’t miss any important live match or popular movie or TV series.
– What is the channel quality?
We provide SD, HD, UHD and 4K channels. You can check our channels list for more information. Some channels may increase or decrease in quality. (SD stands for standard definition, HD stands for high definition, UHD stands for ultra high definition and 4K is the highest on screen picture resolution there is)
- Are UHD and 4K the same thing?
For the display market, UHD means a pixel resolution of 3840 x 2160 (exactly four times HD), and 4K is often used interchangeably to refer to that same resolution. For the digital cinema market, 4K means a pixel resolution of 4096 x 2160, or 256 pixels wider than UHD. ... The pixel resolution of Flat is 3996 x 2160, while the resolution of Scope is 4096 x 1716.

– Can you guarantee that all channels will work at all times?
Our channels list is huge! There are over 6000+ Live channels. At times some may be temporarily unavailable due to technical issues or maintenance. Please understand we do not control any of the feeds on any of the servers. We simply provide you with access through a portal to receive your IPTV service. Keep in mind that every channel and every feed has to be streamed from multiple offshore servers worldwide to get to you and because of this complexity, you may very occasionally experience connections that are not stable due to weather, storms, or satellite outages. The service provider is always aware about the channel outages as soon as they happen and always works to resolve problems in a timely fashion. Please be patient and check in on the channel as it will eventually be resolved.
