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…

Forgive my ignorance, does that mean reset to factory settings then loading the passwords etc back on?

It does. It sounds daunting but is relatively straight forward and does cure a lot of issues people seem to get. I had to do it several months ago and not had a problem since

Factory setting will delete everything once done go through the setting up like you just bought a new firestick

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?

I’m not a techie but my normal home broadband speed from Vodafone is 75mps download if I connect my Surfshark vpn it goes up to 150mps. Everything on my firestick 4k IPTV service works better/faster with my vpn. I’m baffled but happy :)

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

How does walking backwards from his friend's house help? He might bump into something on the way and hurt himself.

Anyone experiancing a niggle with their firesticks when in use with Sky Q2. When we revert back to Sky from our firestick the sound goes of. The only way to get the sound back is removing the Samsung main box power lead and then plugging it back in, or alternatively removing the firestick itself from the box and plugging it back in.

We have tried different HDMI sockets, removed headphone leads, rebooting system, but all to no avail. It's a minor niggle as we can return the sound as above but wondered if anyone else was experiancing this issue? Anything in settings we can alter? It's a Samsung TV with external socket box, Amazon Firestick and SkyQ2

Have you checked the 'CEC' settings on tv and Sky box? Are you running sound through an amp?

Might be heading towards resetting firestick to factory settings and reload everything again

I'd clear cache and data first then sign back into iptv player

Been telling everyone to hardwire their box. Didn't know you could do it with firestick

You'll have to download the player again i think

Bit of a weird one this. I have 500mbs Fibre from Talk Talk and the EERO 6 router. I get about 400mbs to both my Firestick and Firecube using wifi, so I exeprimented and hardwired the firecube direct to the router. The hardwired connection is just 90mbs which I believe when googling is the limit of the EERO 6 . So back on wifi or me
