MAG boxes (made by Infomir) are dedicated IPTV devices that use a Stalker Portal system — you enter your Flickhaven portal URL once in the settings and all 50,000+ channels load automatically after a reboot. This guide covers every Infomir MAG model available in the UK, from the classic MAG254 to the 4K-capable MAG520. Setup takes under 5 minutes and requires no apps, no sideloading, and no technical knowledge. For a full explanation of how IPTV works, see our complete IPTV guide.

MAG Box IPTV — Troubleshooting
❓ Portal URL not loading after reboot
Ensure you copied the full URL exactly as provided — no missing characters, no spaces before or after. Your Flickhaven portal URL starts with http:// or https://. Copy-paste directly from your WhatsApp activation message.
❓ MAC address required for activation
Find your MAG box MAC address at Settings → System Information → MAC address (or Network Info on newer models). Send this to Flickhaven via WhatsApp before purchasing — your subscription is tied to the MAC address.
❓ Channels not loading after entering URL
Try a soft reboot first: Settings → System Settings → Reboot. If channels still don't load, confirm your internet connection is active and your subscription is still active. Check your broadband speed at fast.com on another device.
❓ MAG box buffering
MAG boxes perform best on a wired Ethernet connection. Plug an Ethernet cable directly from your router into the MAG box LAN port for the most stable stream. If you must use Wi-Fi (MAG322+), position the MAG box close to your router.
❓ EPG / TV guide not showing
MAG boxes pull the EPG from the Stalker Portal automatically. If the guide is blank, go to Settings → General → EPG Update Time and set it to 06:00 (overnight). Allow 24 hours for the guide to fully populate after first setup.
❓ Factory reset required
If channels have stopped loading after a portal change or service switch: Settings → System Settings → Factory Reset. Re-enter your portal name and URL after the reset and reboot. Note: a factory reset clears all settings including saved portal URLs.
MAG Box IPTV — Frequently Asked Questions
How do I set up IPTV on a MAG box?+
Press Settings on your MAG remote → System Settings → Servers → Stalker Portal → Portal 1 URL → enter your Flickhaven portal URL → OK → reboot. Your full channel list loads automatically after restart. The portal URL is sent via WhatsApp after purchase.
What is a MAG box portal URL?+
A portal URL is a web address entered into the MAG box settings that connects the device to an IPTV service. MAG boxes (Infomir) use the Stalker Portal system — you enter the URL once and all channels load automatically. Flickhaven provides your unique portal URL via WhatsApp after activation.
What IPTV works with MAG boxes in the UK?+
Any IPTV service that provides a Stalker Portal URL works with MAG boxes. Flickhaven provides a portal URL for all Infomir models including MAG250, MAG254, MAG322, MAG349, MAG351, MAG420, and MAG520.
What is the difference between MAG254 and MAG322?+
The MAG254 uses a single-core processor and requires a wired Ethernet connection — no built-in Wi-Fi. The MAG322 has a faster dual-core processor, built-in Wi-Fi, and a USB port. Both support HD IPTV. For 4K streaming, you need a MAG520 or MAG422.
Is a MAG box better than a Firestick for IPTV?+
MAG boxes are dedicated IPTV devices — simpler to configure via portal URL, with no sideloading required. Firesticks offer more app flexibility (Netflix, Prime Video, etc.) alongside IPTV. For pure IPTV use, a MAG box is often more reliable. Flickhaven works with both.
How do I find my MAG box MAC address?+
On your MAG box remote, press Settings → System Information → Network Info. Your MAC address is shown as a 12-character code in the format XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. You'll need this when activating a Flickhaven portal subscription.
