Nartiel8k – How to Set Up IPTV on Firestick & Smart TV

Choose your device and follow the steps with the login details from your welcome message. Our team is on WhatsApp 24/7 if you get stuck.

Before you start

What you need for your Nartiel8k IPTV setup

IPTV setup needs no technician. Your welcome message from your Nartiel8k subscription contains everything you need; have these four things ready:

  • Your activation details: the server address, your username and your password, an M3U link or a MAG portal address, sent with your setup instructions once your order is confirmed
  • A compatible device: Samsung, LG and other Smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, Android TV boxes, Android phones and tablets, iPhone and iPad, Apple TV, MAG and Formuler boxes, Enigma2 receivers or Windows PCs and Macs
  • A stable connection: at least 10 Mbps per stream for HD and 25 Mbps for 4K, over Ethernet or strong 5 GHz Wi-Fi
  • The player app for your device (see the table below)

How does IPTV work?

IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) streams live TV over your internet connection instead of cable or satellite. The ITU, the United Nations agency for telecommunications, defines IPTV as “multimedia services such as television/video/audio/text/graphics/data delivered over IP-based networks”. Nartiel8k provides the channels, movies and series; your IPTV player app shows them on screen.

The app signs in with an Xtream Codes login (the server address, your username and your password) or an M3U link; a MAG box uses a portal address instead. You enter them once, and the app loads everything, TV guide included.

Install safely: Nartiel8k's advice

  • Install players only from your device's official app store, the developer's official website or the address our team gives you, never from an unknown site.
  • Don't change the server address our team gives you, and don't share one connection across several devices at the same time.
  • Never post your password, playlist link, MAC address or portal details in a public message, forum or screenshot.
  • Contact our team before resetting a player app, and use a VPN only if our team recommends it for an internet-provider issue.
  • Player apps contain no channels: the content comes from your Nartiel8k subscription.

Set up IPTV on a Samsung or LG Smart TV

SetIPTV, NetIPTV, IBO Player Pro or IBO Player

  1. 1Open your TV's app store and install SetIPTV or NetIPTV (IBO Player Pro and IBO Player work too)
  2. 2Open the player and note down the MAC address it shows on screen (IBO Player Pro and IBO Player also show a device key: note it too)
  3. 3Send that MAC address to our team on WhatsApp to activate the player
  4. 4Once our team confirms the activation, restart the player
  5. 5Wait for the categories to load; restart the player again if the channel list doesn't appear right away

Type or photograph the MAC address carefully: one wrong character stops the activation.

Set up IPTV on Firestick (Amazon Fire TV)

IPTV Smarters, installed with the Downloader app or TiviMate

  1. 1On the Fire TV home screen, search for Downloader and install it from the Amazon Appstore
  2. 2Go to Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options → Install Unknown Apps and turn it on for Downloader
  3. 3Open Downloader, enter the IPTV Smarters download address our team gives you on WhatsApp, and install the app (TiviMate is the alternative: choose Add Playlist → Xtream Codes)
  4. 4Open IPTV Smarters and choose "Login with Xtream Codes API"
  5. 5Give the profile any name, then copy the server address, your username and your password exactly as they appear in your welcome message, with no extra spaces
  6. 6Let the first sync finish, then add your favorite channels for quicker access

No Developer Options? Open Settings → My Fire TV → About and click your device's name seven times to show them.

Set up IPTV on Android TV, a phone or a TV box

IPTV Smarters Pro or TiviMate

  1. 1Install IPTV Smarters Pro or TiviMate (our team gives you the download address on WhatsApp)
  2. 2Open the app and tap Add User, or choose the Xtream Codes login ("Login with Xtream Codes API")
  3. 3Copy the server address, your username and your password exactly as they appear in your welcome message, with no extra spaces, and check that the server address starts with http:// or https://
  4. 4Wait while the channels, movies, series and TV guide download

TiviMate is made for TV screens; on a phone or tablet, IPTV Smarters Pro is the easier choice.

Set up IPTV on iPhone or iPad

IPTV Smarters Player Lite or GSE Smart IPTV

  1. 1Open the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and install IPTV Smarters Player Lite or GSE Smart IPTV
  2. 2Open it and tap Add User (in IPTV Smarters Player Lite), then copy the server address, your username and your password exactly as they appear in your welcome message, with no extra spaces
  3. 3Keep the app open during the first sync while the list loads
  4. 4For the TV guide, tap Install EPG: no extra address is needed

If the player can't connect, turn off iCloud Private Relay for a moment and try again.

Set up IPTV on Apple TV

GSE Smart IPTV

  1. 1Open the App Store on your Apple TV and install GSE Smart IPTV
  2. 2Add a new playlist with the Xtream Codes login option
  3. 3Copy the server address, your username and your password exactly as they appear in your welcome message, with no extra spaces

Set up IPTV on a Windows PC or Mac

IPTV Smarters for Windows or macOS or VLC

  2. 2In IPTV Smarters, sign in: copy the server address, your username and your password exactly as they appear in your welcome message, with no extra spaces
  3. 3In VLC instead, open Media → Open Network Stream (Windows) or File → Open Network (Mac) and paste the full M3U link from your welcome message
  4. 4Save the playlist in VLC so you don't have to paste it every time

VLC plays the M3U playlist but shows no TV guide; a wired Ethernet connection gives the most stable playback on a computer.

Set up IPTV on a MAG box

no app: the box connects through a portal address

  1. 1Find the box's MAC address in Settings → System Settings → Device Info (it starts with 00:1A:79)
  2. 2Send that MAC address to our team on WhatsApp: the box must be registered before it can connect
  3. 3Open Settings → System Settings → Servers → Portals
  4. 4Enter Nartiel8k as the portal name and the portal address our team gives you
  5. 5Save, unplug the box for ten seconds and start it again

Type the MAC address and the portal address carefully: one wrong character stops the activation.

FAQ

Nartiel8k IPTV installation: your questions

How do I set up IPTV on my TV?

On a Samsung or LG Smart TV, install SetIPTV, NetIPTV, IBO Player Pro or IBO Player from the TV's app store, then send the MAC address the player shows to our team on WhatsApp to activate it. On any other TV, plug in a Fire TV Stick, an Android TV box, an Apple TV or a MAG box and follow the guide for that device.

How do I use IPTV?

You install a player app on your TV, streaming stick, phone or computer, then sign in with the details your provider sends you. With Nartiel8k, that's Xtream Codes details (the server address, your username and your password), an M3U link or a MAG portal. The app then loads 55,000+ live channels, the movies and series and the TV guide.

Which IPTV app should I use?

It depends on your device: Samsung / LG Smart TV: SetIPTV, NetIPTV, IBO Player Pro or IBO Player; Amazon Fire TV Stick: IPTV Smarters, installed with the Downloader app or TiviMate; Android phone, tablet or TV box: IPTV Smarters Pro or TiviMate; iPhone or iPad: IPTV Smarters Player Lite or GSE Smart IPTV; Apple TV: GSE Smart IPTV; Windows PC or Mac: IPTV Smarters for Windows or macOS or VLC; MAG box: no app: the box connects through a portal address.

What are Xtream Codes, M3U and a MAG portal?

They're the ways to load your subscription. An M3U playlist is a single link you paste into the player. Xtream Codes is a login with three details: the server address, your username and your password. A MAG box connects through a portal address registered to its MAC address.

How do I set up IPTV on a Firestick?

Install Downloader from the Amazon Appstore, turn on Install Unknown Apps for it (Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options), then use it to install IPTV Smarters with the download address our team gives you on WhatsApp. Open IPTV Smarters, choose "Login with Xtream Codes API" and enter your details.

How do I activate IPTV on a Samsung or LG Smart TV?

Smart TV players such as SetIPTV and NetIPTV are activated with the TV's MAC address. Open the player, note down the MAC address it shows on screen and send it to our team on WhatsApp; once it's activated, restart the player and your channels load.

Can I get IPTV on my phone?

Yes. Nartiel8k works on Android phones and tablets and on iPhone and iPad. On Android, use IPTV Smarters Pro or TiviMate; on iPhone or iPad, IPTV Smarters Player Lite or GSE Smart IPTV from the App Store. The login details are the same as on your TV.

Where are my login details?

After you order, the team confirms your plan and payment, then sends your login details and setup instructions in your welcome message. If you can't find them, message us on WhatsApp.

How to order

What internet speed do I need for IPTV?

A fast, stable connection, above all for 4K: Netflix, for its own service, recommends “15 Mbps or higher” for Ultra high definition (UHD) 4K; Nartiel8k recommends at least 10 Mbps per stream for HD and 25 Mbps for 4K. Ethernet or strong 5 GHz Wi-Fi gives the steadiest picture, and several screens at once need more. A free trial, asked for on WhatsApp, lets you check your own connection first.
