Problems with IPTV - Works in one location but doesn't work at other

by rkhanna88

So I've not got much background of understanding IPTV to be honest - I have tried to research and read as much as I could to fix my problem but haven't succeded.

I have 2 IPTV subscriptions currently and both seem to work perfectly when we take the box over to my sisters house. She's got the same net speed/isp as I do - but when i bring the box over to my house; only 1 subscription works (ACETV). The other one keeps lagging every 15-20 seconds. This has happened with multiple IPTV providers; ie. IPTVSUBS and IPTV GOLD.

I'm really confused because ACETV works - but the other 2 don't. I'm using a H96 MAX box with STBEMU Pro and have set the STB Emu to MAG 254(I have tried other versions but that hasn't helped.)

Can someone please guide me on why I'm facing these issues? Would really appreciate it!

Just because she has the same net speed/isp as you do, does not mean you have the same level of service. Check to see if you are actually getting the service you are paying for, it would also help to know what country you're in to know if there is fuckery from the ISP. Also are you hardwiring, or using the useless wireless on the box, and if you are going wireless, how far are you away from your access point at your house vs at your sister's house. The antennae in the Chinese boxes is usually nothing more than a piece of wire that is soldered onto the pcb and than taped to the top of the box, sometimes it's just a staple, so hardwiring is what you should be doing with these boxes. Ideally you should be running it with Xannytech's firmware from Freaktab, IF it's compatible. (it should be but with all the cheap boxes lately, you never know.)

i would not worry about ipsubs. they buffer all the time, especially even more during peak times. i tested them in many different locations with different isps. same results.

i would buy a mag254 if u can. then test both locations.

for stbemu i have seen advise given in other threads to set it to MAG 250. try that.

read through some threads, users with nvidia shield also have issues just like your box.
