Have you checked the connection speed to the internet using the Netflix get help Network check... measure it a few times a few minutes apart?

 

What speed did it report?

The minimum recommended speed is 30+ Mbps.

 

You can either connect by an Ethernet cable or Ethernet over power line.

Definitely not fast enough for a stable stream service.

How far away from your router is your stream puck?

 If there is quite a difference I.e the pucks are downstairs and the router is in a cupboard upstairs that could be the issue.

 

if you can't move the router in a better location for better WiFi you can buy WiFi extenders or things like a TPLink power line for under £50 that can essentially provide your network through your electricity supply and you can plug your stream into the power line device using an Ethernet cable.
