(19,768 posts)The converter is for converting the digital signal you pick up with the antenna to analog so your analog tv can use it. If you are already using an antenna to view channels over the air, then you must have already taken care of the digital to analog issue.
The Roku plugs up to your tv just like a VCR or DVD player. You switch your tv to whichever input you have the Roku hooked up to and that's it.
Of course, the Roku will need to also be connected to the internet. You can do this by either running an ethernet cable from your modem or router to the Roku (only the $99 model has the ehternet port), or, if you have a wifi modem or router, you can connect the Roku that way - all Rokus can connect with wifi.
