Xfinity streaming keeps buffering

During live events we have to restart the tv every few minutes because the screen is frozen. Very frustrating

Hi there, @user_8umfzn I'm very sorry to hear that you have to restart your TV due to the screen freezing on you. Since it's been a few days since you last posted, are you still having the same issue?

When the screen freezes do you notice any issues on other devices? @user_8umfzn

I am having the same problem.  I have fast internet with an new Amazon Fire TV.  I have reset my modem, my router, unplugged the TV and still get a lot of buffering no matter what channel I am on and no matter what time of day.

Hello wizzer40. I'm sorry to hear that the streaming is not working well with your new TV. I would love to help out and identify the cause so that we can make the needed corrections. I know how frustrating it can be when you simply want to relax and what a show. Is this your first time using the Xfinity Stream app or are you seeing the same trouble on other devices?
