SportsNet 4K Channels Freezing

Channels 920 and 921 ( SportsNet and SportsNet1 ) are both 4K quality and neither will play without instant freezing every 4-5 seconds or so.    I have no other issues with any of the channels in my sub.

I have gigabit internet speed and a wired ethernet connection to my hub router.   My box is a Telus VIP5662W 4K pvr.

I am perplexed as to why this is happening and look forward to any ideas that come forward.   The usual restarts did absolutely nothing.    Thank you.

 

  • Dawned on me that my 2nd tv is not 4k so obviously there are likely to be stuttering issues.  I am closing this thread.

    Issue seems to have resolved itself, no longer freezing after pvr reset.   Cheers

      So, the one tv that has an ethernet connection now plays the 2 4K channels without issue following a reset, but the 2nd tv that runs on wifi only continues to have problems with freezing on these channels.   Is wifi not a good enough signal strength to play 4K content ?
