​
-
Sometime my stream seems to buffer and at other times it does not - why does that happen?
​
During peak usage times (think “internet rush hour”), there might be excess data competing for limited bandwidth on the local network infrastructure. Thus, network congestion can cause bandwidth usage problems. These problems lead to high latency, a.k.a. slowdown. That unfortunately is not within our control.

-
I see a can't connect server error when I type in my username and password on the app. My service will not connect - What can I do?
​
That may occur with certain internet providers and also if you have a WI-FI extender. During the initial sign up for service we recommended using a VPN (which is a third party app that can be download from your amazon app store and allow you to "change your location) We recommend this for a reason. Internet providers at times will attempt to stop individuals from using IPTV in a move to push people back to cable. VPN hides your ip address which helps with a seamless streaming. We unfortunately cant make our customers download -however we strongly recommend as it prevents an issue before it even arises.
