How to set up Giant IPTV on a MAG or Formuler box
MAG and Formuler boxes are built for IPTV and use a portal instead of a username and password. We link your account to the box’s MAC address, and you enter our portal URL once. After that, the box starts straight into live TV.

What you need
- A MAG box (e.g. MAG 322, 424, 524) or a Formuler box with MyTVOnline
- The box’s MAC address. It is on the sticker under the box (MAG addresses usually start with 00:1A:79)
- The portal URL we send you after you share your MAC address
Step-by-step setup
-
Send us your MAC address
Turn the box over and find the MAC on the sticker, or look under Settings → Status on Formuler. Send it to us on WhatsApp. We register it on your account and reply with your portal URL.
-
MAG: open the portal settings
On the MAG home screen, open Settings (gear icon) → System settings → Servers → Portals.
-
MAG: enter the portal
Set Portal 1 name to Giant IPTV and Portal 1 URL to the exact address we sent, including
http://and the ending slash or/c/if present. Press OK to save, then go back and choose Reboot portal (or restart the box). -
Formuler: add the portal in MyTVOnline
Open MyTVOnline (2 or 3), choose Add portal or Portal setup, enter Giant IPTV as the name and the portal URL we sent, then select Connect. The channel list and guide load automatically.
-
Check playback
When the portal loads, open a few channels to confirm playback. If you see "STB blocked" or "Authorization failed", message us. It usually means the MAC address on your account has a typo.
Tips for the best picture
- MAG and Formuler boxes have Ethernet ports. Use them for the best stability.
- Leave the box in standby rather than unplugging it daily so the guide data stays loaded.
- Each portal is tied to one MAC address. Tell us if you replace the box.
Common problems
The portal loads to a black screen
Re-check the portal URL character by character, especially the ending, then reboot the portal.
“Authorization failed”
The MAC address we registered doesn’t match the box. Send us a photo of the sticker and we will correct it.
