### Step 1: Get Your Streaming Link
Go to **shadowstream.org** → “Free Trial” → enter email → receive M3U/EPG link in under 45 seconds. (Bunnystream.live works as backup, but shadowstream.org has 2.3x faster response on MAG hardware.)
### Step 2: Load Playlist on MAG Box
1. Power on your MAG box.
2. Press **Menu** → **Settings** → **Portal Settings**.
3. Enter portal URL: `https://shadowstream.org/iptv/mag`
4. Click **Save & Restart**.
5. Wait for red light → green light (typically 12 seconds).
You’ll land on the UFC 311 live pre-show auto-highlighted.
### Step 3: Start Streaming Before Octagon Walk
Press **OK** on the **UFC 311 Prelims (Free)** tile.
Buffering test at 720p@60fps during 6 AM–9 AM ET dry runs showed zero packet loss on 200+ MAG units.

## Anti-Freeze Tech: Built for High-Stakes Moments
shadowstream.org’s adaptive bitrate engine detects lag *before* it shows:
– Drops 1080p → 720p in 800 ms when packet loss > 0.5%
– Reconnects in < 2 seconds without restarting the box
- Survived 12K concurrent streams during NBA Christmas Day without service degradation
During the F1 Miami GP test, 92% of users reported *zero* rebuffering during the first 10 laps.
If buffering starts at lap 12 or round 3, reboot your router, then re-authenticate on your MAG box by re-saving the portal URL. Support resolves 90% of these cases in under 3 minutes.

## Troubleshooting: MAG Box-Specific Fixes
### “Black screen after portal save”
→ Unplug MAG box for 30 seconds. Plug back in. Re-enter portal URL. Do not use “Restore Defaults” — it clears portal credentials.
### “Video plays audio only”
→ Press **Info** during playback. Confirm resolution says *720p* or *1080p*. If it says *480p*, go to **Settings > Video > Max Resolution** and select *1080p*.
### “Buffering at round 2”
→ Check Wi-Fi strength: > -70 dBm required. Move box closer to router. If signal < -75 dBm, use Ethernet-to-MAG adapter (we include one free with premium plans via **shadowstream.org**).
