Troubleshooting Tips

  • Ensure your internet connection is stable (minimum 10 Mbps for HD, 25+ Mbps for 4K)
  • If the app isn’t available in your region, try changing your TV’s country settings
  • For buffering issues, adjust the buffer size in your IPTV app settings
  • Consider using a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi for more stable streaming

Remember that the quality of your IPTV experience depends largely on your internet connection speed and the reliability of your IPTV service provider.
