Frequently asked questions
How much bandwidth do I need for Premier League in 4K?
25 Mbps minimum stable download. Plan for 40 Mbps for two simultaneous 4K feeds (e.g. two TVs in the home).
Is Wi-Fi enough?
Yes, on Wi-Fi 5/6 on the 5 GHz band, near the router. For stable 4K, Ethernet remains preferred.
Why does my stream buffer?
Common causes: insufficient speed, congested Wi-Fi, or slow DNS. Switch DNS (1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8) and enable QoS on your router.
Does a VPN help?
With ATV Corner, no β you don't need one. A VPN only slows your connection with no benefit.
