Where did you buy your router?

The Philippines, like the US and most other countries only allow channels 1 thru 11. Only a few countries allow higher than channel 11. Since the Mi Box is intended for global distribution it is logical for it to use only channels 1-11 so it won't  violate the standards of most countries.

Note that the MB3 also has issues with the 5Ghz wifi band, beyond channel 100 (it won't see the SSID).  That's why I initially set my router's 5Ghz channel manually to channel 100.

OT:  I just had a similar problem with my Nvidia Shield Tablet yesterday.  After research, it can only go as high as channel 49 on the 5Ghz band.  Ayun, downgraded uli channel nang router ko to ch48.

These are the 5GHz channels that are legally allowed in the Philippines: 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 149, 153, 157, 161. These are the same channels that are allowed in the US. In some routers, like the Archer C7 in particular, you can set your country of use which should take care of this provided all your devices are adherent to the same standards.

Finally got one from Globe UPTC.

Question - when playing KODI, the display does not fit my tv screen (I'm using a Panasonic plasma). Lampas sya. How do I fit the screen? I can not find the settiings for this.

2nd, unlike the Wetek which is backward compatible, the MB3 can detect my external hard drive but can not read the ext2 file system.

Aside from reformatting my HD, any other easier work around?

Thanks.

I went the other day at globe lucky Chinatown. They said that you can only avail the 2,400 if you have a globe broadband sub. 3,800 if purchase outright.

Owners, san po kayo nakahanap ng pang cover ng remote nito? Para iwas basa lang or mga aksidenteng hulog.
