Coincidence, who knows. Seems to me you wouldn't necessarily 'see' anything on a reset unless your service was out. The gateway shutdown on a regular basis is a good idea. Once again the other night we were routinely trying to watch a series rerun and just couldn't get anything going. Shut down the gateway and everything was again perfect afterward. We do use RD cached torrents. I see no reason to avoid them. I have an all-in-one Arris AC1750 DOCsis 3.0 SBG6782 certified for Comcast. I must have been using an older one because I see this was only purchased in Sept'16I dont know if its just a coincidence or what, but ever since i contacted them on i think wednesday, its been working flawlessly. I didnt even do anything really. I dont know if they reset me. Seems like if they did reset me i would have been booted out and would have to log back in..but that hasnt been the case. That leads me to believe the buffering problem was on their end, but then again you were saying yours is working fine. So who knows. Its all good!
I try and remember to unplug the modem and router for at least 5 minutes, once a week. Probably should do it more than that, like a few times a week. I usually have than off for a half hour, not 5 minutes.
I never have any problems with k odi with my real debrid. Never! I tend to stay away from the torrents links and go with the regular links 1080 or 720. Hell, the biggest problem with k odi is the lack of new movies because of covid!
I'm running a brand new, this year because my last cable modem puked out recently, Arris Surfboard Modem SB8200, that I own, for a cable modem.
I've got two fire tv 4k - Pendant design. they're kind of older.
And a OnHub Wireless Wi-fi Router from Google and TP-Link. Its gotta be 5 or 6 years old. I also own this router.
The tv in my living room was the one giving me fits earlier. I havent really checked my bedroom tv yet. probably should as an experiment.
thanks again
I think you'd be well served in a possible buffering situation in the future to check every device in the house and see if the problem is replicated on those other devices. If not, you've learned something. Then you have to figure out what to do about it of course.
