What modem do you have? ARRIS SURFBOARD
What tv, platform, and device are you using? SONY SMART TV, MACBOOK PRO, IPAD, IPHONE 11
Is your streaming devices on 2.4ghz or 5ghz? I CAN USE EITHER
What type of content are you streaming? (HD takes more bandwidth). USUALLY JUST VIDEOS TAKEN ON AN IPHONE. EITHER VIDEOS I TOOK MYSELF, OR ONES THAT WERE SENT TO ME. ALSO LIVE STREAMED GAMES OF MY KIDS IN COLLEGE. ALL OF THESE VIDEOS COME UP WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS, LAGGING OR BUFFERING ON MY DEVICES, UNTIL I SCREEN MIRROR TO APPLE TV.
