Is the smart TV wired or wifi? (I can't work out what is connected to what.) I use wired Powerline for my smart BluRay player. I never see any buffering.
Thanks for reply.
My set up is as follows.
Sony Smart Tv connected by cable to Humax Sat Box.
Humax Sat Box connected by Ethernet Cable to Powerline 500 Adapter in Mains Socket.
Netgear Broadband Router Box connected by Ethernet Cable to Powerline Adapter in Mains Socket ( in another room).

Humax Satellite Box then has a cable link into back of TV.

Apologies I am not more technically savy !
