What You'll Need

• A MAG box (any model listed above)
• Internet connection (minimum 25 Mbps recommended for HD, 50+ for 4K)
• HDMI cable connected to your TV
• Your IPTV Portal URL (provided by Global IPTV after purchase)

Step 1: Connect Your MAG Box

Connect the MAG box to your TV using an HDMI cable. Plug in the power adapter and connect to the internet via Ethernet cable (recommended for best performance) or Wi-Fi if your model supports it.

Step 2: Access Settings

Once the MAG box boots up, you'll see the main portal screen. Navigate to Settings (gear icon) using your MAG remote control. Then go to System Settings → Servers → Portals.

Step 3: Enter Your Portal URL

In the Portals section:

1. In Portal 1 Name, enter: Global IPTV
2. In Portal 1 URL, enter the portal URL provided to you by Global IPTV Canada
3. Leave Portal 2 fields empty unless you have a second subscription

Step 4: Save and Restart

Press OK/Save on your remote. Then go back to the main menu and select Restart Portal or simply reboot the MAG box by unplugging and plugging it back in. When it restarts, your channels will load automatically.

Troubleshooting MAG Box Issues

Channels Not Loading

• Double-check the Portal URL - even one wrong character will cause it to fail
• Make sure your MAC address has been registered with Global IPTV (contact support via WhatsApp)
• Check your internet connection speed

Buffering Issues

• Use an Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi for maximum stability
• Restart your router and MAG box
• Ensure no other devices are heavily using bandwidth
