Plug it in at another friends house to see if it's the firestick then work backwards from there.

Might be heading towards resetting firestick to factory settings and reload everything againHe's tried that. And unplugging the router as well.

My old firestick was always a bit iffy which I put down to receiving my internet use via a dish on my house pointed at a terrestrial transmitter, variable download speed etc..
Moved house and got fiber. Picture quality not what I hoped for in fact started using my android box instead.
A word with my IPTV provider who recomended firestick 4k.
What a difference. Marvelous picture quality etc.(thanks you know who you are).
Cost me about 40 euros from Amazon but what a transformation. No need now for my Android box.

I haven't had any issues with the firewood stick since I hardwired it with an ethernet cable.
Balls to vpn's as well. Don't they slow you down?

My friend was having all sorts of issues with buffering & looping. He checked with his IPTV provider directly who watched his feed which had no issues his end but Virgin wanted to run all sorts of tests rather than doing the router upgrade so he left them, they begged him to return with the offer of a new router and a better deal but, by then he'd moved to a dish provider and now has no issues at all.
Oh and as someone else said get a 4K stick.

I have a 4k stick on one tv and a lite on the other, both work perfectly well. I can't see it makes any difference. (other than the 4k reception which I'm not bothered about).Oh and as someone else said get a 4K stick.

Dunno Bill I have 4k downstairs & 3k in the bedroom (router near enough halfway between) but the lounge stick seems to work quicker & smoother although not necessarily much better in piccy quality.I have a 4k stick on one tv and a lite on the other, both work perfectly well. I can't see it makes any difference. (other than the 4k reception which I'm not bothered about).
I had to reset my 4k stick the other day…suddenly started freezing after a few clicks…couldn’t get anything out of it…works like a charm again now…Might be heading towards resetting firestick to factory settings and reload everything again
