Download Issues

Why is there constant issues with sky and downloading content.

Just tried streaming From, yet HD versions constantly fails to download, while sd version works. 

I find this with other series as well where it reports download failed due to remote failure. 

Sometimes have to try multiple times to download, while other times it just works. 

Can't sky cope with on demand content and provide it properly.

This isn't a general problem. I can download anything I've tried recently - UHD or whatever - with no issues. I think it's usually a wifi issue or sometimes they get a particular advert insertion service which plays up. If I recall correctly, using google or cloudflare's DNS (1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8) can help.
