by cbanger4

Using my iptv the stream is always laggy, I’ve increased my internet mpbs and still doesn’t seem to help, it’s also hooked up Ethernet cable and still so laggy please any suggestions would be welcome to fix this problem

I have been using iptv for a few years so have gone thru all of this so here is my plan for you:

The first thing you need to do is speed test your connection for full hd you need 8-10megs constant on speed tests.

or try -->

1.Go into the software your using to watch it and clear cache if android then reboot box and try again. I have to do this ever few days or so but not all the time. if still problems then try 2.

  1. I would change your router DNS to another !!

I was having issues so instead of using my own isp dns I chose one of these .. go thru them all until the lag/buffer stops --> https://www.keycdn.com/blog/best-free-dns-hosting-providers

  1. if 2 does not help then what software and hardware are you using ? I would try a different android app like iptv extreme pro on android or use vlc on computer to see if it it improves and go from there. hardware/boxes with 1gb ram can have problems and 2gb ram is needed to decode some full hd channels and sound etc.

4.the last thing it can be is the iptv suppliers servers location to where you are at increases lag and ping. If you can go to a friends and try the iptv at their place and it works really good but if you find it also lags on friends then you know it's the iptv provider that is the problem.

I have sent you a link to 12 months iptv $25us off ebay that I use and works 100% for me on adsl2 8megs on speed tests and I use a direct network cable from modem to box.

What app/device are you using?

I’m guessing it depends on their servers or whatever, I have a certain iptv service that rarely lags, i mean it’s good 98% of the time, not exaggerating.

I had the same issues. Turns out I needed a new router. Make sure you’re doing speed test. If your speed is fine then it’s most likely them. Find a new IPTV.

Internet package is 150 mbps, with iptv running and running a speed test I’m only getting 62 mbps

First define your laggy problem second tell my what program you are using to access your IPTV.

If you reboot both the router and whatever you are watching it on (PC, mag box, other box, firestick) and still have the problem you should switch your iptv service.

Which device you are using?

If your stream freezes around every 20secs for buffering, it's a DNS server issue. Choose a fast DNS server and the issue will be fixed.

Here is the DNS I am using:

DNS 1: 1.1.1.1

DNS 2: 8.8.8.8

DNS 3: 8.8.4.4

If using wifi that may cause it too..try using LAN

Looks like your router may b the problem. R your android box. Try using your box at a friend and try, if OK your router. Maybe your ISP trotgeling your IPTV portals? I got a VPN at home now and all OK. Hope this helps. I got IPTV running for few years now. Bud I must gave gone tru at least 20 trials
