You plug it into your wall socket, connect your over-the-air TV antenna to the Tablo, and then download the sister app to your phone or tablet. The Tablo can connect to your house router via WiFi or by using the included Ethernet cable. The app brings up an easy-to-use TV guide on your phone. You can record shows and series as you would with any other DVR, and you can watch live TV through it. You don’t need to plug the antenna directly into a TV by using Tablo -- remember, plug it directly into the Tablo box, which by the way has its own internal amplifier that strengthens incoming signals -- I can move the antenna to anywhere I want. Tablo transmits wirelessly to all of your devices. And unlike other over-the-air arrangements, I don’t need to buy a separate antenna for each TV. One will do for the house with Tablo.
