UHD is unwatchable
Time and time again my sky sports UHD is unwatchable. Just jumps and judders through what ever I'm trying to watch .. my internet speed is over 300 mbs so it's not that .. SKY you need to sort this out . It's a huge problem and ao
many people are complaining about it .. the PUCKS can't handle it

Re: UHD is unwatchable
No issue here on 2 glass TVs and 4 pucks. Who is your ISP etc? While speed is certainly a big factor, there are other factors which can impact streaming.

No problems here i have a busy household including 2 55inch sky tv's and a puck aswell as many other devices connected to the internet, just because your internet is 300mps that's to the hub not to the device, i have full fiber to the house gigfast 900mps both my tv's are connected by eithernet cables and each tv gets high 80'smps to mid 90's mps and sodoes my puck, to watch uhd channels the min sky recommend is 30mps and the more devices that you have connected the weaker the signal is to each one, open netfix go to help open that and run check my network to see what speed the tv is getting also a cable connection is more stable that wifi
