Raspberry Pi 2 Model B
Supports CEC. Comes with 4x USB 2.0 slots, an HDMI, quad core ARM A7 processor, 1 GB RAM, and an ethernet port. Also has GPIO pins but I don't know of any Kodi related uses for them. It is an extremely low power device (uses about $3 worth of electricity per year) and requires nothing to keep it cool (e.g., no fans blaring in the middle of your favorite movie).
Base cost is $35. Requires a microSD card, an HDMI cable, and a microUSB charger, all of which can be purchased for approximately $5 each. An existing microUSB charger, such as from your cell phone or a device like a Kindle or Chromecast can be used, of course. Optional components include a case ($10-$20 or 3D print your own), USB wifi dongle ($10+), and an external hard drive ($50+). A few companies put out bundles that include a Raspberry Pi board and various components such as this basic one and this more complete one. A wireless keyboard ($20+) can also be handy. Product links are provided as examples; there may be better deals or smarter purchases to be had.
You'll then want to use a minimalistic Linux distro such as OpenELEC or OSMC, both of which are designed specifically to run Kodi and have optimized builds for a Raspberry Pi. OpenELEC seems to be more popular and is what I use myself. Installation is easy -- you just download and write to your SD card (oh yeah, you might need an SD card reader, $5). If you'd like you can also install a "real" Linux distro and install Kodi in that as you would on a regular desktop computer. You can either store your media on an external hard drive connected to the Raspberry Pi or on a separate computer or NAS and share your files over your LAN.
Pros:
Cons:
I think you're going to want to look for something that doesn't require a consistent internet connection, so FireTV and the like is probably out. Raspberry PI is not a bad choice but, you might want something a little bit simpler and more straightforward.
You want it to boot straight to Kodi and I'm guessing we won't really have a tremendous amount of use for android apps (because of lack of internet). So, I would recommend something linux based and, of course we're probably going to need something that can easily accept a USB connected hard drive. I imagine as a hospital you probably have a ton of thumbdrives that vendors have given you somewhere to act as the hard drive, if not, you should be able to get a 64GB one off amazon for under $20, type mostly doesn't matter.
For the power issue, you might want to add a small UPS system, like this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NTQYUA8 it should power most small devices for a good long while (rated for 4.5 hours, for just a media player, it should last considerably longer). I'm guessing you might have a standard power outlet available for charging in the ambulance? The one I linked is around $40 now but, it frequently goes on sale for $20.
For the actual box, I would recommend one of these, these all run linux, boot straight to kodi and should accept a USB hard drive (update the firmware when you get them, pivos devices have a linux and an android version available, i would recommend linux):
Yes. The HDHomeRun is the best device for the purpose, just be sure you get a model for over-the-air channels and not the one for cable channels. The older model HDHomeRun DUAL (model HDHR3-US) works well and is a little less expensive than the HDHomeRun CONNECT, though either should work. Amazon links are:
https://www.amazon.com/SiliconDust-HDHomeRun-Definition-Digital-HDHR3-US/dp/B004HO58SO
https://www.amazon.com/SiliconDust-HDHomeRun-CONNECT-broadcast-2-Tuner/dp/B00GY0UB54
Both models have dual tuners so you can watch programs from two different channels at once, or if you have PVR backend software such as Tvheadend, MythTV, MediaPortal, NextPVR, etc. installed on a computer, you can record from one channel while watching another, or record from two channels at the same time. If you have any experience at all with Linux then I recommend Tvheaded, but that's a personal preference.
On your computer (or home theater PC, if you ever want to watch using a TV) you would run Kodi (please be sure you get the official Kodi from https://kodi.tv/download and not from some sleazy third party site that might contain malware), or you could even view the stream in VLC or possibly your operating system's media player, if that's your preference. Kodi just makes it a little easier.
The nice thing about the HDHomeRun device is it does not have to be connected to a computer; it streams directly through your network to whatever computer is requesting the stream. With a USB tuner stick you'd need to have it plugged into a computer somewhere to work. Also, you can locate the HDHomeRun wherever your antenna cable enters your house, as long as there's also a local network connection available. So if your antenna wire comes into the basement you can put the HDHomeRun there and still watch it on a computer in an upstairs bedroom, as long as there is a network (LAN) connection at both places, and electric power of course.
I'll try, though this is a good place to start
Fyi OpenElec (OE) is a turnkey kodi & os package so once written to a sd card the RPi will boot directly into kodi.
Kodi has built in support for a number of USB OTA tuners so picking one of them will "just work". I'm in the UK so I went with 3 of these Freeview HD tuners
fyi more tuners = more simultaneous multiplexes watched = more simultaneous recordings & viewings. YMMV if not in the UK.
Hopefully you'll find something suitable here
I can't remember if the TVHeadend (TVH) server package is included but it's easy to install from within OE (see links below)
You can obviously skip kodi and just install a base os and just the TVH server but life's too short, hence why I went with OE ;-)
It's also what they recommend
Anyway once up & running you can configure TVH via a web page, basically you tell it where you are and it scans the channels. They then get broadcast over your network. The kodi clients can point to the TVH server and all the channels will be available, along with scheduled recording if you've enough space (I'm using a portable USB drive). You can also schedule recordings and watch live tv via apps - on iOS I personally use TvhClient
According to my bookmarks (and fading memory) these are what I used to get going...

Anyway, sorry there's no 1 page guide. TBH my knowledge has evolved with experience.
Hope this helps, or at the very least gets you started!
I have no idea if it will fix the problem, but you should definitely upgrade your switch to something like a TL-SG108 considering how cheap it is, and if you have a SHIELD you can definitely afford it.
Beyond this, I would check your windows machine and see if it there is some kind of firewall or networking issue on that machine causing this.
A KII pro Android TV box from Mecool, Videostrong or Acemax is a bit unique in that it includes a DVB-T2 tuner.
The box runs Android, so you can install Kodi, Netflix, VLC and Firefox or Chrome directly on it. It comes with a DTV application pre-installed. You would then connect this box in turn to a HDMI input on your TV, and perhaps connect a wireless USB mouse to one of the USB ports to give you a remote mouse. You might also connect a portable USB hard disk on which to store the movies and music which you would wish to use with kodi or VLC.
You could even get some wireless gamepads for your box and run some Android games if you want.
With such a setup you need never change the TV from the HDMI input. All of your entertainment can be done from the one box.
I use a VisionTek CandyBoard on a windows machine, and love it. It says it can also be used on android devices
Try one of these, works great http://www.amazon.com/D-Link-Wireless-Network-Adapter-DWA-131/dp/B002PD61Y4/ref=dp_ob_title_ce
Not for Kodi, but for playback off USB drives in hotel rooms, I use and recommend the Micca Speck G2.

leave it on home page , thats the way to do it , doesn't slow pi or kodi down , thats how most people use it.
Only time it is ever powered off is on the rare occasion when it freezes , usually when i am customising artwork settings etc on a build, so to get around having to pull the power lead out to reboot i have one of these .https://www.amazon.com/Etekcity-Wireless-Electrical-Household-Appliances/dp/B0087EIDRS/ref=sr_1_5/177-5705950-1692669?ie=UTF8&qid=1466194332&sr=8-5&keywords=remote+power+switch
Have you considered MOCA adapters? I only ask because when I mention them most people don't know what I'm talking about. I swear by them and I have been running them for the past 4 years.
I have the Actiontec. I just upgraded to the first link. However now that I've seen the price of the Yitong (third link) and see if there is a drastic difference. I still need one more....
