Try unplugging device power and lan cable and reboot. I have yet to have an issue with my Roku box. It is more cool than my TIVO or Cox DVR.

Can someone explain this to me?

What exactly does it do?

Obviously it enables streaming through the television, but I see they advertise other "channels" like UFC where you can watch all the events live or taped?

So would you need an extra subscription for that? Or is that free?

From the site, it makes it sounds like you'd still have to have your own Netflix/Hulu Plus etc. etc. accounts to access that content. But no real mention of the UFC/NHL/NBA stuff.

ETA: I have a PS3, so I can already stream NEtflix through my TV (as well as Hulu). But if this gives me the option to watch live UFC stuff plus NBA/NHL games without paying anything more than the initial cost of the box... I may just have to do that.

After checking the Roku forums, there appears to have been a nationwide Netflix issue last night on streaming devices.

The issue seems to be resolved now, everything is working fine today.
