Remote Fire TV (not a Firestick)

Support & Troubleshooting
1

I see this question was raised about 5 years ago, but I’m hoping there has been so improvement to the resolution.

I have a new Fire TV (not a Firestick) at my farm and would like to connect to my Tablo device back in the city. Is there any way to prepare the Fire TV to remotely connect to my Tablo device OTHER THAN transporting the TV (a 55-incher) back to my home in the city?

SURELY Tablo has come up with a better solution in the 5-year time span. I suppose I can add a pre-connected Firestick to the already-Fire-Enabled-Fire TV and connect to it, right. Even if it works, thats a dumb solution. :grinning_face:

To which Tablo are you referring? The OG/Legacy (black/rectangular) or the latest (white, round) Gen4? You obviously have the Legacy, but is that the one you’re asking about?

If you’ve got a legacy Tablo and an active TV Guide Data Service subscription, this is your best bet. Because Tablo Connect security relies on the viewing device having been connected to the same home network as your Tablo, that’s the only way to enable pairing.
