Re: Streaming issues with RBR350 (constant buffering and pixelation) when using Chromecast

Question

I have the same issue on my&nbsp;RBR350 but not only on chromecast. I have a TV which has a built-in chromecast and has this issue but I also have a macbook, which has the same issue! both of them are connected directly to the router, not to the satellites even though I have 2 satellites for other rooms.&nbsp;Did you find any solution to this issue&nbsp;relapse_au&nbsp; ?
