What is your  broadband speed? 

Have you done a network  check in the Netflix app? Go to the Netflix app  open it go down to the help click on  that  go to check the network  and run that to see  what speed the app is getting, also how are your  puck connected  to the Internet ethernet cable  or wifi, and one more thing are you pay sky to watch uhd ? Just asking  so we can try  to help, also is the puck picture settings  at auto  and is your  tv a 4k  tv the more  information  you can give  the better  for us
