OK, When your system works fine for a month and then, without changing anything, it starts freezing and channels just stop working you can't blame the equipment. If you have problems from the start then yeah, you might have a router, connection, STB problem. When the freezing and missing channels happen, which happens a lot, I check other equipment with other donations on other connections.. No surprise, it's exactly the same. Adding to that, when it starts freezing people start posting about it.. So, yes.... it's the servers and nodes, and rarely the working equipment. For anyone that wants to try it, setup Kodi with all your info on your cell and see how it works with a 4G connection instead of your internet. You'll find the freezing, missing channels, etc is exactly the same. I've been on IPTV for nearly 3 years, connected in many states on many WiFi and cell connections. Over all this time sometimes it works good and sometimes it doesn't. I turn on the TV and it's a crap shoot, that's the way it is. Anyone that claims to have their system working perfectly all the time.. I call BS! Unless you're using something no one else knows about.
