I just got this 'smart" tv connected up to the router for the first time and have to say, it is working like a charm...just connected to the internet, went to espn3 through the router, and the ulala/jackson state game is coming in loud and clear...works perfectly...

Appreciate your thread JP.

I'm in Lafayette with LUS Fiber as a provider, with Apple TV. The ESPN menu doesn't list LUS Fiber as a provider. On page 2 or 3 you posted a link of all the providers of ESPN3 content, and LUS Fiber is indeed listed.

What gives? Any other LUS Fiber customers on here able to get ESPN3?

I'm having the same problem with my dad and Etex Cable...listed by espn3 and comes up In the official ESPN3 list, but not on list when he tries to add It to his Roku.

I think I have confirmed that just because a provider supports ESPN3 does not mean the provider supports Watch ESPN LINK LINK...which is a much much shorter list than the supported provider ESPN3 list

which means you (and my dad) should be able to get on espn3.com on your computer and watch stuff, but you can't do anything with the WatchESPN app (on iphone, roku. ATV, Etc)

I've always had cox, so I've Never run Into the supportd provider issues that some people are having,

Thanks. I spent a fair amount of time this morning with LUS Fiber tech support, and here is what I have learned:

First, you have to be set up with online bill pay for LUS to recognize you (not just have an account with email).

Second, you can only watch ESPN3 through the LUS website. To do this, go to the LUSfiber.com home page and click on Allons TV. From there you will see the option to watch ESPN3. Click on that and watch your desired program.

I tried logging on to LUS website on my iPad so that I could possibly Airplay the content to my TV, but on the iPad on the website, I was directed to the iTunes app store to get the Watch ESPN app, I did so, and it was just like using the Apple TV......LUS Fiber was not listed as a provider. So no luck there.

Tech support told me they are working on creating an app to fix this situation, as they get these calls frequently.

Unless someone can (or has) figured out a work-around for this, LUS Fiber subscribers are currently limited to watching ESPN3 on a hard-wired home computer.

LSU clearly has the most fans interested.. It doesn't even matter who they are playing they have far more people interested than even two good programs meeting up.

Unplug roku....plug back in and restart whole thing...maybe even restart your wifi router

See if that does the trick

Gave both a try. Could it be placement or too many wi-fi connections hooked up at once? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Yeah not sure...sounds like your internet connection is slow or whatnot....try turning off other things your not using that may be pulling wifi...,computer laptop, etc. Maybe even call your internet provider and tell them you're not getting a good connection see if they've got some ideAs....the roku is merely streaming through your wifi, so any delays m/hiccups almost always are attributable to your WiFi connection/speed

You should be able to go to network settings in roku and make sure you've got full bars...if not placement could very well be the issue (not a strong connection to your wifi router )
