Anti Buffering Tips

There's a common misconception about the origin of buffering.
Buffering (freezing) is related to the speed and stability of the client internet connection (emphasis to stability) and not to Streaming Servers with 10Gb upload connections.
It's essential to understand that buffering is something clients have to fix on their side and there's nothing IPTV providers can do about it.

The most common causes of buffering are low or unstable internet connection, other users hogging the bandwidth in your house, wrong LAN setup, weak WiFi signal, among several other reasons.

Do you have lots of users in your home? Disconnect them all and try again.
Are your devices connected Wirelessly? WiFi is not suited for watching IPTV, connect your devices via ethernet cable to enjoy smooth watching without interruptions.

 

Please follow IPTV Anti Buffering Tips for the best IPTV experience.

  • Disconnect other devices on the same network that may be downloading on the background (updates, etc)
