Check your connection

Run a speed test. You need about 25 Mbps per 4K stream. Use a wired connection or strong 5GHz Wi-Fi, and restart your router if speeds are low.

App & device fixes

Clear the IPTV app cache, lower the stream quality if your connection is weak, and keep the app updated. Our 24/7 support can diagnose anything that remains.
