MAG Devices IPTV setup
MAG boxes (such as MAG 250/322/420/520) work with a “portal” address instead of a playlist. That is why you need to send us the box's MAC address; we add it to your account and you then enter the portal address.
- About 5-10 min
- 8 steps
- WhatsApp support
Before you start
- A MAG box, power adapter and HDMI/AV cable.
- The MAC address written on the label under the box (starts with 00:1A:79).
- An active IPTV subscription and the login details sent to you (M3U link or Xtream details: server address, username, password).
- A stable internet connection: at least 10 Mbps for SD, 15-20 Mbps for HD/FHD, 4 Mbps or more for 30K is recommended.
- If possible, connect the device with a network cable instead of Wi-Fi; this reduces stuttering, especially during live sports broadcasts.

Tips
Don't make typing mistakes in the portal address; enter it exactly as it was sent.
Letters in the MAC address are written in capitals; don't forget the colons.
Keep the box's software up to date; the portal may not load on very old versions.
If you change the box, let us know the new MAC address.
Troubleshooting
The portal won't load, a blank screen appears.
Check the portal address and the internet connection; make sure you have sent us the MAC address.
I get a "No portal" or "Authorization" warning.
Your MAC address may not have been added to your account yet; write the MAC address to us on WhatsApp.
Channels freeze.
Connect with a network cable and restart the modem.
The portal was deleted after I reinstalled the box.
The portal address is erased on a factory reset; apply the steps again.
Where do I find the MAC address?
It is written on the label under the box or under Settings > Device info.
