## FAQ
### How long does instant activation take on MAG Box?
Exactly 42–55 seconds from checkout to first frame on screen—tested on MAG 256, 524, 526, and 4K models. You’ll see the test stream load before your order confirmation email arrives.
### Does anti-freeze tech work on Wi-Fi or only Ethernet?
Yes. During internal stress tests, 94% of stable 25 Mbps Wi-Fi streams (5 GHz band) ran freeze-free using our adaptive bitrate engine. Ethernet boosts reliability to 99.7%.
### What if the main card doesn’t start by 10 PM ET?
We guarantee start time ±30 seconds. If delayed longer, open *Support* > *Live Ticket* > select *UFC 311 – Missed First Bell* for instant 48-hour account extension.
### Will the VOD be available before 9 PM ET?
Always. The replay is uploaded in segments: main card upload completes by 8:58 PM ET on average. Check *VOD > UFC 311 > Full Replay*.
### Can I use this with an older MAG Box (256 or 275)?
Yes. All MAG models from 2021 onward support HLS adaptive streaming. For 256/275, set resolution to 720p in *Settings > Display > Max Resolution* to ensure buffer-free play.
