Rebuffer issues

Are there any tips to prevent this from happening? ie - is it better to exit the channel rather than leave the same channel running for weeks at a time? Is it better to power cycle the roku box once a week or so?

Re: Rebuffer issues

1) Use wired instead of wireless

2) Get a faster internet connection

3) watch off peak hours (not needed with FTTH)

4) Drop ISPs that share bandwidth (most cable co.) and get an ISP with dedicated customer bandwidth (most FTTH providers)

Roku 3 for Pokémon TV / YouTube / Animal Planet GO / HBO MAX. Chromecast for most other media because Roku Mirroring sucks , how many clicks in Wndows 10 (about a dozen) to Miracast on Roku vs 2 with Chromecast.
