How do I set up IPTV?

Setting up IPTV takes three steps on any device: install an IPTV app, enter the login details your provider sends you, and open the live TV or film section. With IrishIPTV, you choose your device, we send the right app and login on WhatsApp, and most people are watching within five to ten minutes.

Logins

The three ways to log in

Every app uses one of these. We send the right one for your device, so you do not need to choose.

Xtream Codes

A username, password and server address. Used by our apps, IPTV Smarters, TiviMate and most modern players.

M3U link

One playlist link that loads every channel. Works with almost any player, including VLC on a computer.

MAC address

A code that identifies your device. Used for MAG boxes and smart TV apps such as IBO Player, where we activate the device for you.

Before you start

Before you start

  1. Check your broadband

    Run a speed test on the device: 10 Mbps for HD, 25 Mbps for 4K.

  2. Use 5 GHz Wi-Fi or a cable

    Most buffering comes from weak Wi-Fi to the TV.

  3. Have your login ready

    Keep our WhatsApp message open so you can copy your details.

  4. Set the time zone

    Set the app to Dublin so the TV guide matches your channels.

FAQ

IPTV setup: your questions

Which device is easiest for IPTV?

An Amazon Firestick running Fire OS is the easiest for most people. Our free app installs in about five minutes.

No. Most recent Samsung and LG smart TVs work with a player app, and a Firestick turns any TV with HDMI into an IPTV player.

Can I use IPTV on more than one device?

Yes. Install it on as many devices as you like. To watch on several at once, choose the 2 or 3-screen plan.

Will you set it up for me?

Yes. Message us on WhatsApp and we will guide you through every step, or activate your device remotely where possible.

What is the best IPTV app?

Our free app is the simplest. TiviMate and IPTV Smarters are popular alternatives. See our best IPTV apps guide.

Usually five to ten minutes on any device, and less if we activate it remotely.
