Picture problem

Picture on glass TV keeps freezing, it keeps turning itself off and when watching programs from the start it then jumps to live screening.

This would suggest the broadband connection is problematic. 

What speed do you receive and how is your Glass TV connected to your router?

To find out the speed being received by the TV open the Netflix app, navigate to the get help menu and run a network check. 

For most stable performance it's recommended that you connect Glass to your router via an ethernet cable and turn WiFi off in the network settings. If this isn't possible then you need to make sure your WiFi connection is as fast and stable as possible with no interference.

What speed does Netflix report is being received? All your other devices may be connected to your WiFi and be working properly but Glass is very sensitive to speed fluctuations so it's important to check it specifically.

@Vixen1981 you aren't actually answering the questions being asked by other members of this community, so its really hard to give you advice unless you do.

 

As mentioned by @Padam_Padam your symptoms would suggest an issue with the strength and stability of the network connection  going to your Glass.

 

So have you run the network speed test as suggested, and can you confirm how the Glass is connected to the internet

Open the Netlfix App on the Glass, go to get help and then Check Your Network, it will provide you with the speeds that the TV is getting
