I have been streaming for a good many years now. I have found that good devices and routers are key. When I started I bought the first generation Firesticks and used the cable companie's modem and it was hit or miss at best. I have built my system up over the years thanks to KZbinrs like you and few others. I have in my home a Nvidia Shield 2019 pro, a 2019 Fire Cube and two 4k Firesticks. I run it on a TP Link Deco 1300 mesh net router with 400 Mbps internet. I use real debrid and Nord VPN service. If you make a serious investment I recommend Nvidia Shield all the way. I love it. I've had various other Android boxes but what I have now is awesome. Thanks again Adam for all the good advice. Cheers from the States and happy streaming everyone!

Excellent tip. A good router makes all the difference in the world if you can't use ethernet. My wifi signal could barely reach my bedroom or the basement. Buffering like crazy. A good router took care of that problem.

Here's hoping you can shed some light. I have a Philips Ambilight. Ethernet connection. I was watching iPlayer last night. It buffered in picture, then carried on buffering blank screen, then came back on for around 1 1/2 minutes, then did the same again and again and ag............ Other apps worked fine so unlikely to be my internet. Tried the app on an ipad and all worked fine. Any clue out of interest what it could have been? Also, they've changed the iPlayer logo so likely updated the app but I don't see any way of updating or uninstalling/reinstalling apps on my TV. I've read, go to Apps, go to Google Play (I haven't got Google Play). Or, go to App shelf, select manage apps. I don't have manage apps, iPlayer isn't in my App gallery either yet it is on my TV. Cheers me dears.

Click on the steam again, and it loads, plays for a few minutes, them stops again . It's not like the app crashes... But it doesn't buffer either!
