I have a Formuler Z8 and a sub that I pay $14 /month or $125 per year. Is it normal for Indian streams to "pause" for a minute or two every now and then..or every program (midstream)?

Or should I look for another provider? I don't know who the back end provider is.

Nope. A 0.5 second pause once every few hours maybe. But I guess it depends on the server. Mine never completely pause unless it's left on for hours. Try picking a new channel and going back to the paused stream.

What bandwidth u got there? Is the channel HD?

Wired, 300 Mbps. My parents use the box and it's on most channels, SD and HD. I was watching HD CNN with them and it went for at least 30 min w/o freezing but I definitely have seen it on the Indian channels... I think they're HD but ...definitely not the same as cable lol.

Would there be a setting to increase the buffer?

Could be your isp, try resetting your modem or router. VPN mostly don’t make it beter offenly just slow’s down your connection. Also the sub is very expensive for the quality 😆

Z8 is a great box i use them all the time are you hard wired? Don't use wifi for iptv not that great could be the program that you have if too much people on the server sometimes it freezes what program you have? I also have programs if you ever need
