Before Submitting a Support Request
Most streaming device issues can be resolved by completing the troubleshooting steps below.
Please complete these steps first before submitting a support request.
Step 1: Complete Power Cycle Reset
This fixes most freezing, buffering, loading, and connection issues.
Unplug your streaming device from the power outlet.
Unplug your internet router and modem from power.
Wait 3–5 minutes.
Plug your modem back in first and allow it to fully reconnect.
Plug your router back in and allow it to reconnect.
Plug your streaming device back in and test again.
Buffering, Freezing, or Apps Not Loading
Restart the App
Press the Home button to exit the app.
Reopen the app and test again.
Clear App Cache
Go to System Settings.
Scroll down to Apps.
Click on See All Apps.
Select the app that is having issues.
Example: HEAT VODSelect Force Stop.
Select Clear Cache.
Restart your device.
After your device restarts, open the app again and test.
Wi-Fi Connection Issues
If your device will not connect to Wi-Fi or you are experiencing connection issues:
Check that your Wi-Fi says Connected.
If it says Remembered, forget the network and reconnect using your Wi-Fi password.
Check your Wi-Fi signal strength.
Move the device closer to your router if needed.
Make sure IP settings are set to DHCP.
Open YouTube to verify your internet connection.
Run a speed test using the Fast app.
Recommended minimum speed:
8 Mbps or higher for streaming.
Router Security Settings
Some internet routers include advanced security features that may prevent streaming devices or certain apps from connecting correctly.
If your device connects to Wi-Fi but apps will not load, disconnect, buffer, or show network errors, please check your router settings.
Please check for:
Advanced Security Protection
Security Shield Features
Parental Controls
Content Filtering
Device Blocking
Firewall Restrictions
Some internet providers include security protection inside their mobile app that may need to be adjusted.
Examples:
Xfinity Advanced Security
Spectrum Security Shield
Other Internet Provider Security Settings
After making changes:
Restart your modem/router.
Restart your streaming device.
Test again.
You can also test your device using a mobile hotspot.
If your device works correctly on a hotspot but not your home Wi-Fi, the issue may be related to your router, internet provider, or security settings.
HDMI Connection Issues
If your TV shows no signal, black screen, or does not recognize your device:
Make sure the HDMI cable is fully inserted into both the device and your TV.
Disconnect and reconnect the HDMI cable.
Try another HDMI port on your TV.
Restart your TV and streaming device.
Avoid using HDMI ARC ports when possible. These ports are normally designed for soundbars or audio systems.
Sometimes your TV and device simply need to establish a new HDMI connection.
Remote Control Issues
If your remote stops responding:
Replace the batteries with a new quality set.
New batteries can sometimes be weak from storage.
Restart your device after replacing batteries.
Make sure nothing is blocking the remote signal.
If your remote loses connection, it may need to be paired again.
Always Complete Updates
Your streaming device uses an Android-based operating system similar to many smartphones.
When updates are available:
Allow updates to complete.
Do not unplug your device during an update.
Updates help improve performance and features.
Additional Streaming Tips
Your device needs a strong and stable internet connection.
Performance can be affected by:
Weak Wi-Fi signal
Distance from your router
Too many devices connected at once
Internet provider settings
Router security settings
Streaming devices may also need time to refresh apps, update content, or reconnect.
If something is not loading correctly:
Restart the device.
Restart your internet equipment.
Test again later.
Some temporary issues may resolve after updates or system refreshes.
Specific Channel, Movie, Show, or Event Issues
If only one channel, movie, show, or live event is having problems:
Test other channels.
Test different content.
Check your internet speed.
Some live events require stronger internet speeds.
