Does anyone have an alternative to Firestick for Canada? I tried the Onn box but it won’t work properly outside of the U.S. I know I should use a VPN but I prefer not to as it throttles down the speed too much.

I live in Canada. If you go to Walmart, they do sell them now. I’ve seen the onn 4k pro there. And I have one from the USA and they do work fine, As long as you set them up right.

Thank-you. I had ordered my Onn originally from Walmart US but it wouldn’t let me set up a Canadian profile. Maybe I will try again.

You could likely get an Onn from Canadian walmart though it’s pricer. The Google streamer is also a super solid choice for your area.

To set up an American onn box in Canada, you have to do a WIFI hotspot off a computer using a VPN set to the USA [image] ONN Setup - out of country Streaming Devices / Hardware So I’m traveling from my home country where my Google account is set up in the USA.…

I think I almost wrote the book in detail and giving links to exactly how you set up your USA onn box in Canada. It works perfectly. Please search this forum. Once you find it, you will be good to go and after it’s registered, it’s your choice to use a VPN or not but personally, i would never stream…

Thank-you for the help. I will definitely check it out.
