Presumably you've checked your broadband connection to the puck?
Check the speed being received by opening the Netflix app, navigate to the get help menu and run a network check.

That's highly likely to be the cause of your problems then.
Sky Stream needs a minimum speed of 25mbps to have any stability in HD. Any small fluctuation in speed caused by any other device on your network using some bandwidth will cause Sky Stream to have issues.

Re: 5 channels broken down freezing and getting stuck
@Jonathanphillip As advised by @Mister_Dalek your broadband speeds are borderline and simply too low to be good enough for stream, over the last 3 days you raised various threads about Sky stream and at the end of the day the speed is your issue.
Sky actually recommend 25mbps for HD & 30mbps for UHD.
