Weird. We give away rokus to our new setups, but not the roku3.
On another note, I bought an amazon fire tv for the house to see how
well it would stream, and I wonder if it's remote is wifi... never checked.

Has anyone run into this yet?
The Roku 3 uses it's own dedicated wifi network to communicate with
the remote control. If the roku is connected to the customer's wifi
router to get online, the remote wifi will always use the same channel
and cause interference with other wifi devices.
We just had an install today where the router was hearing the
interfering SSID from the roku at a -22. And as you might expect the
wifi performance was garbage.
Just one more thing to look out for and cause support headaches.
The workaround is to plug in the roku via ethernet, which will make it
use the 5ghz band to talk to remote - of course that might interfere
with your 5ghz CPE now.
Are IR remotes really all that bad?
