How to setup Thunder IPTV on a Roku device
The following tutorial will provide you with step-by-step instructions to install IPTV on Roku for your live streaming needs.
Because Roku uses a closed source system, we must “sideload” IPTV onto this device for use.
This will require a computer to download the IPTV app file and add it to your Roku streaming device.
We always recommend using an Android-powered device such as a Firestick or Fire TV because of its open-source system.
