Hi Guys,
I'm new to this forum.
I've had a droid box x7 for over a year now and have not had many problems with it.

It was only until a couple of days ago.
There's seems to be a major buffering issue. My Internet connection is fine and is well over the recommend amount, I regularly delete the cache.

I have noticed that there is a new XBMCHub maintenance update. The software is up to date.

When I watch live streams of sports events, the stream works for about 3 seconds then cuts out. This is the same for every single stream that I try and view. This has never happened before.


Has this occurred to any one else and is there a fix I could try?
Thanks
Kind Regards
Pav44

Mainly sports devil.
I've also encountered this on navi X and most live streams.

@Pav44 - A few things to try before getting too deep into matters. First I'd try Resetting XBMC To A "Just Installed" State . Once you're rerun the Wizard, do the problems remain?
If you connect via WiFi, is it possible that someone near you has set up a new network on the same WiFi channel? You can use Wifi Analyzer to check if this is the case, and if so, see which channel has the least congestion.
If the issue still occurs, I'd ask a friend (who is with a different ISP if possible) if you can bring the device to their house and try to watch a few streams.
