It appears the buffering happens only on HBO Max. I am having the same issue as everyone else! Frustrating does not cover it!
HBO BUFFERING NIGHTMARE IS DRIVING US CRAZY! Buffers every minute, or just stops and
kicks us out of the app all together!

Close other devices or background apps using your network.
Lower the video quality in your streaming app.
Restart both your streaming device and the app, then test again to see if performance improves.

Massive amounts of buffering and audio cut-outs tonight. The standard steps for resolution presented by Xfinity are garbage and they should be working with HBO to fix the problem. Nothing worse than paying a hefty monthly subscription for 2007 buffering issues and commercials.

The buffering on hbo max is terrible. Every one to two minutes the movie will freeze and other times, it will not load after a commercial. This only happens when watching hbo max via the Xfinity gateway on my tv.

This happens to me when I use my xfinity tv box's hbo max app - every few minutes the shows or movies pause. Everywhere else I use the hbo max app, including my smart phone with home wifi xfinity internet, it works fine with no buffering. Another instance of xfinity being so frustrating.
