I'm getting Alot of freezing and skipping is it just me because I'm confused I have a awesome internet connection
There are many things that will cause what you are describing and its most likely either your setup or ISP provider... Take a look at this:
Here is a c/p from another site that explains the buffering situation.. As some of us are not experiencing the issue all the time:

What you have described is very typical of ISP capacity problems. This has been a major problem in my area where the ISP's lack either the total available bandwidth to cover its commitment or they lack the infrastructure to distribute bandwidth at full capacity. I've had people paying for 30mbps that at peak times would get less then 1mbps.

If you can prove your ISP is incapable of providing an acceptable service through logging speed tests over time you should report it to your local authority that is responsible for the regulation of ISP's. Then you should report to your ISP that you have reported them to the authority

That is xxxmbps from your ISP to you but what happens between your ISP and the server? That is probably where the freezing comes from. Do a tracert and you will see where the freezing is from
 
Loads Faster Zero Buffering

Honestly, nfps now loads faster and no buffering after they pulled off a lot of iptv channels. I am down at 445 channels from 795 channels in a couple of days. All of HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, Sky movie channels and ESPN sports channels also now missing :( Please put back AMC, WGN America :mad: I have 1-year subscription (donation).

I thought the same thing so I changed the speed test to a server in Alaska and it reported half the speed I got on the default local server. You may get your Mb to your ISP but not to the NFPS server. Can your ISP fix that?

Not that I know of.... Maybe someone else has had success, I haven't had any issues but I guess I'm lucky ;)
 
We neen mlb back!!!

Why hasnt mlb been working? Channels are going down and on other threads people are saying that the channels like mlb are not coming back up wth is that we need to watch baseball......i saw channels for mlb extra innings and now they are gone.......
 
I suspect the ISP has not purchased enough bandwidth for all its customers in prime time so they are forced through a bottleneck. I get half the bandwidth or less when testing to a server other than my own ISP.
 
Sky Living [86] & Boomerang USA [175]: Still Down!

Boomerang USA has been down for about 6 months but still shows in the channel list. With Nick Jr finally being fixed after being down almost as long. Can we please have Boomerang USA [175] fixed, please?! Sky Living [86] has also been down for a while now and it would be nice to have fixed as well. Thank you for fixing Nick Jr and hopefully Boomerang and Sky Living will be fixed very soon.

Unfortunately when most people get buffering and freezing they automatically blame the server when it's there ISP. Glad you figured out what your issue was! The only time I ever see any issues is when they are doing work to the server.
