I have an android box and a few firesticks. From experience I would pick the firestick everytime. Keep up the great work you do free tech. Without your videos I would not be able to use my firestick to it's full potential and more. Cheers buddy.
Your setup (ugeen and otg) SOLVED/ FIXED my fire 4k alltime booting thanks again!! You ARE NR.1.!!!! God bless you and family and stay strong. Love your openness and laugh!! Greets from Hungary!!!
It’s actually not a bad idea. Adding the hardwired ethernet connection boosts the speed incredibly and adding additional space gives you more options. I particularly like the idea of the hardwired ethernet. When I work on my laptop computer I always connect the ethernet cable directly because I like fast equipment.
I notice some people are having trouble with the ethernet portion of the installation. I had some initial problems as well and went through resetting the router etc. Nothing worked until in exasperation I remembered I was plugging into a switch for the ethernet which I keep in my media room for all the electronics that needs updating via 'net etc. I unplugged the ethernet cord coming from the switch and plugged the main and rather long internet cord from my computer room directly in. It worked immediately. Then I tried using the cord from the switch instead (basically reverting to inital state of affairs) and THAT worked too. Perhaps the switch just needed a bit of a nudge to recognize the device..not sure but I know some of you will know why. I'm just glad it all works for me now including that cool remote. Hope that helps someone...I know how it can be when you've tried everything and still no luck. Great video!
Nice video fella - very clear. I've got a similar setup on my Firestick and it really makes a difference. Am lucky that the router is just next to the telly that I plug the Firestick into, so was able to go wired ethernet. And you're right that a proper keyboard - even on a small remote - makes a load of difference!
I have a a Chinese MXQ+ box, several Fire sticks, some Chromecasts, 2 original Rokus and a newer Roku, several Fire tablets. Mainly use Roku and Chrome cast. I also have a few of the multi port otg devices.
Hi, thanks for a great video, bought the kit you recommended, but having an issue with the setup? Firestick not recognising the hardwired ethernet connection?? What did I do wrong ??
Lovely video but as I am a little thick, could I check where the power supply to the Firestick comes from, does the female USB B connect to firestick power supply plug and cable. and the male to the firestick itself? Just thought I'd confirm with myself. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Thanks for your hard work making these videos, I have found them to be very helpful. Is there a way to set the firestick to record live tv (iptv) to external storage? It would be nice to be able to pause live tv also.
Hi, thanks for a great video, bought the kit you recommended, but having an issue with the setup? Firestick not recognising the hardwired ethernet connection.have fire stick version 2.
For anyone else looking through the comments, I just got mine to work by pulling out the USB connection that goes into the OTG, ever so slightly. Seems to be a fault when it's plugged all the way in. Absolute crap design flaw.
Followed along and had no problems setting external drive. My question is can the Firestick w/external gear be moved to another tv within your network without problems? What about another tv away from network, ex. On vacation?
Hi my friend, how’s u doing , Question I just got the Ugreen adapter & OTG cable I plugged in , but it seems not connected , so what’s should I do next my friend , how to do , thanks my friend
I have 1gb full fibre, my TV is next to my router, do you recommend Wi-Fi 6 or hard wired for the firestick ? I know it’s slower speed wired but what’s best, the speed or stability of hard wired ? Interested to hear your opinion , many thanks
Just what I needed! is there an adaptor for HMDI to prevent the need to plug straight into tv? I have a 3M HDMI ran from TV to a cupboard, I'd like to use that, also dont want to run Ethernet cable to the tv. Female to Female?
Love your content...however i bought and installed these items and my fire TV is still reading "wifi", i see no option for switching over to Ethernet connection.
Hey ya'll the problem was the Ugreen usb hub...wire had a break in it, I guess from being tightly folded for packaging...when i jiggled the wire it would come on and off...just try another brand, there are many out there.
Had to go to the UK to find help from this young lady on how to get and use ES files at "A BRIEF OVERVIEW | INSTALL & USE ES FILE EXPLORER | AMAZON FIRESTICK | 2020". This method worked perfectly the first time. But if it wasn't for your video, I don't know if I would have ever heard of ES file and how to watch movies I've recorded on the firestick. I have an older tv with no USB ports. I was using a Raspberry Pi for a couple of years when I was using Kodi, but it constantly had very complex problems, and now with the firestick, I don't need Kodi and this is so much easier and less complex.
I just acquired a 4K Fire Stick on a recent Black Friday. I've been a Roku user for years, but was suggested to try FS. Thru Roku, I used Playon to access desktop files. I have 100's of movies on desktop. How do I access my movies using FS?
If I don't need or want ethernet, will just any USB hub work? I want to do this as cheap as possible, The ethernet port adds to the cost. And there are many cheaper USB hubs with ethernet also. What made you pick this more expensive option? Thanks.
another great presentation. Thanks for the file access demo and the hub. I will be using a slightly different hub for data & power. You eventually did plug the stick into the TV, correct? I must've missed that part, lol. Or is it all through a hardwired ethernet modem/router/switch to the TV also?

Great video mate keep up the good work very much appreciated already using a using extra storage on a fire stick it is brilliant thank you very much your jokes are awesome
Thanks for this video. I’m researching a replacement for my WDTV. Is there a limitation on the size of external storage. I currently have a Seagate 2TB External (powered) drive connected to the WDTV. So will the Fire Stick support a 2TB external storage device?
You should buy the cables/dongles and sell them as a package, i would buy one off you and give pay a little more for them,It takes the hassle out of buying them separately.
Great video. However when I go to network I do not see the choice for wired connection. And also how do you pair the wechip. I am using everything you have suggested including the U green hub the OTG cable and the wechip with dongle remote.
Great video ! I’m an older guy and I really enjoy watching your videos. They are easy to understand, they’re very informative, and they’re entertaining as well. I have watched many of your Firestick related videos and have learned a lot. I installed a TP Link Deco system in our 2 story home and solved our weak WiFi signal problem ! Thanks for that ... I do believe I’m going to add some storage space and get me one of those controllers too. Keep up the good work.
Hi there, thanks for your videos, very enjoyable. Quick question, I have a Firestick 4k. I have noticed that every 10secs or so, it falters. I have messed with the screen res settings, but all this makes no difference. Have you come across this and do you have any suggestions?
I have 3 different hubs I purchased over the years. They are all "cheapies"', " (about $5 or less) and to my surprise, they all work just fine for this application.
Really enjoy your Video's they have help me out many times. I am in the USA I purchased the OTG Cable and the UGreen hub from the USA links above as well. When I connected them I still only connect to the Wi-Fi network. I do not see any other connections. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help

Pretty sure he went over it in the vid here... Get the OTG cable in the description, the UGreen USB hub, then add a USB flash drive. This was a bit of a "paint by numbers" vid. I did what he said, got the products he provided links too, Bam! All works great, give it a shot yo!
@@wakeuppeople7327 Same here, it seems you cant download apps onto the usb, and any movies etc you want to download to your usb cant be done as the apps wont let you change to a different directory. It sets up its own folder on your internal, there was one app that let me change it to my usb but actually downloading anything just showed up with an error.
Do a factory reset and do not download any movies or tv shows to your device...when you do your monthly maintenance every apk in manage all applications that gives you only three options, clear the data... everything else clear the cache and force stop... that should give you at least 1gb of extra memory
Hey big man keep up the good work I have a small usb stick as extra storage I used to be android box only but bought a fire stick in the black sale and of course they are far superior to most android boxes for a lot of reasons so I am converted
Great video. I've got a Mission USB power cable for mine as I've run out of power sockets near my TV. Will that still work with the usb hub, or would it need more juice from an actual socket outlet? Thanks
Hi, I've just set this up and it works a treat. The only problem I have is my download speed has dropped. Is that because my ethernet is now going into the USB device ?
English man, Irish man and scotch man, sat round the table in a pub, English man says “think my wife is having an affair with a plumber”, they both ask why? English man says “I found a plumbers ratchet under the bed”, scotch man says, “ funny you should say That, because I think my wife is having an affair with a joiner, found his saw under our bed” Well the Irishman pipes up and says “ think my wife is having an affair with a horse because I found a jockey under my bed”
No bud. Most people watching will already own a Firestick to start. You get HD Netflix, Prime etc too. Updates are supported. A lot prefer the Firestick layout. ETC.ETC. Name me a box for the accessory budget that would beat it 🙃
I just got my fire stick ! Sadly stuck in the Amazon locker because the locker is broke !! Can you tell me what is the lowest external storage you could you use too improve your storage ?
Hi there can the remote ADB shell work with the FireStick 2020 lite or just the 4K FireStick, it keeps saying app not installed. Please advise. Thanks.
I have a question. If I connect my router to my firestick using ethernet cable. What difference will is see in viewing live tv? Thank you. Right now my firestick signal from router is going through 2 brick walls. So I can move router. No problem, just dont know if the help stream live tv.
Hi Adam. Ordered OTG cable & hub from your links. First try nothing happened but on second attempt I really gave the connections a good push & it sprang into life. Really good download speed compared to Amazon's own adaptor. Well chuffed. Cheers pal. Think it was the firestick power lead that was a tight fit.
If I plug the firestick 4k into a soundbar with Dolby Atmos (Bose 900), will that allow the soundbar to output in Atmos and then send 1080 vid to tv via hdmi ( hdmi out on the soundbar)? Older plasma tv that doesn't have an output for Atmos.
Dinosaur here, so chuffed your on here you instructions are so easy to follow even an old git like me can follow them so thank you so much. I have sorted a VPN out (from one of your previous videos) and need to ask a question, when I start my fire stick should I first start my VPN before anything else. Thanks for everything
I learn alot from your videos. I'm totally lost on why all my firestick icons went to the Grey box with no information about the App. Is there a way to get the regular icons back? Thank you for your help

Ok mate...you got me laughing man....you should a vid with all just bloopers
Im buying firestick now.
@Free Tech any Ethernet cable recommendations? Brands, speeds, etc? Thx
Remember the storage has to be formatted Fat 32, otherwise it won't be shown.
Mine is actually set to ExFat and the firestick formatted it when plugging in bud.
I just got my fire stick ! Sadly stuck in the Amazon locker because the locker is broke !! Can you tell me what is the lowest external storage you could you use too improve your storage ?
Turn that laughing gas off hahaha, on second thoughts don't.
Does the Ugreen USB Hub need a power supply?

I have a question. If I connect my router to my firestick using ethernet cable. What difference will is see in viewing live tv? Thank you. Right now my firestick signal from router is going through 2 brick walls. So I can move router. No problem, just dont know if the help stream live tv.
What gen fire stick are you using here?
Is there a way to add an ethernet adapter to and android tv box, that will increase the mbps?
Hi Adam. Ordered OTG cable & hub from your links. First try nothing happened but on second attempt I really gave the connections a good push & it sprang into life. Really good download speed compared to Amazon's own adaptor. Well chuffed. Cheers pal. Think it was the firestick power lead that was a tight fit.
Awesome bud. Nice for others to see this if they have the same issue too.
If I plug the firestick 4k into a soundbar with Dolby Atmos (Bose 900), will that allow the soundbar to output in Atmos and then send 1080 vid to tv via hdmi ( hdmi out on the soundbar)? Older plasma tv that doesn't have an output for Atmos.
I'm older and new to this ... does the ethernet have to be hard-wired to work ... can it work thru wifi?
Great bud! Thanks! How did you such speed, just purchased the Amazon Ethernet adapter and only around 65-70mbps...how do you get 300ish?
Dinosaur here, so chuffed your on here you instructions are so easy to follow even an old git like me can follow them so thank you so much. I have sorted a VPN out (from one of your previous videos) and need to ask a question, when I start my fire stick should I first start my VPN before anything else. Thanks for everything
thank-you, good demo. Is there anyway to mod the firestick to work like the 'Superbox S1 pro' to have access to all those IPTV services ???
I learn alot from your videos. I'm totally lost on why all my firestick icons went to the Grey box with no information about the App. Is there a way to get the regular icons back? Thank you for your help
Can you use a usb drive to be used as a hard drive to record shows on a TV app? Or rewind live tv??
Cheers
Hi mate got this for my first generation fire stick but won't connect does it have to be a newer fire stick, thanks.
