Streaming cuts to black screen.
Does anyone else's streaming get randomly interrupted and the screen goes blank for a few seconds but sound continues?
can't seem to get any answers on the service checker so at abit of a loss. We also get the odd high pitch frequency spike now and again which is strange. Puck was only plugged in 5 days ago.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Re: Streaming cuts to black screen.
Have you checked the broadband speed being received by the puck? Do this by running a network check from the get help menu on the Netflix app.
Sky Stream relies entirely on you providing as fast and stable a network connection as possible. The pucks are susceptible to interference and speed fluctuations so you may need to do a bit of troubleshooting to improve your experience.
If the puck itself is at fault then Sky should replace it.
