why all of sudden ive been fine for over 6 months, Ive had a few hickups but not like this
There have been some server issues, specially with the HD Channels. Many times people here will say they have no issue.
We are not comparing apples to oranges.
It has to be both have to be watching same channel, same time and both get the issue then yes it is a server issue.
It could be one server is working fine, the other is not. It could be one gateway/switch on the server could be faulty while others
are working fine. Anyone connecting to this switch may be keep running into issues.
In theory, a 3mb line is good enough, as none of the IPTV channels needs any more bandwidth, including the 1080p's
But then there are other devices too on the network.
There are different routes from the country where the server is to your home. It could be one of the routes is congested.
ISP are Upstream network provider probably has a congested line. In theory yes, if other services work fine then this should too.
But here is no load balancing.

If many of us are complaining, then yes there is a issue as many of us are seeing the issue.

to be honest, post your issue here. It brings it to the server providers attention.
If others offer you help to resolve our issue then take it, and ignore others who have nothing
more to add but it is working fine here.

While I do agree that some people may have issues I will say it again it is not server side. If it was eveyone including the mods would be saying something. I sat at work on my iphone with a 2mb connected to a cell tower for 8 hours and had 0 issues other than the stupid 2 hour freeze deal. The HD channels have been downgraded to 720p they are no longer 1080p these were never an issue for me either. Lastly yes if people offer a solution you can either take it and attempt to correct you problem or continue to ask questions until you get one you like and try it.

As of yesterday the only channel that "went back to SD" was 200 - CNN, but it still has the bit-rate pushing above 2MB meaning the only real difference is the resolution went from 1280x720 back to 720x480. Still pushing a High Quality signal none the less.
