My image is freezing on my GR Planet TV Box

If your image is freezing, you might have an issue with your internet connection. Check your internet’s speed by calling and asking your internet service provider or checking online at speedtest.net . For best quality, your internet speed should be 15mbps or higher. You can also use GR Planet TV’s built in Speed Test located in Settings>Network Status>Speed Test, however this does not display your internet’s speed but rather the speed your GR Planet TV box is downloading content. Anything under 3 mbps may result in freezing and poor quality.

If image is still freezing

We recommend trying the following:
Remove any other devices that might be accessing your router
Rebooting your router and modem
Rebooting your GPTV Box

Follow the above process to check your internet speed. Connection to a wifi network is recommended as 4G and LTE connections may cause lagging. Also try exiting the app and logging back in.

Make sure your GR Planet TV Box is connected to the internet by either a wired Ethernet connection or a wireless connection using a USB Wifi Adapter. If you are connecting wirelessly, try connecting with a wired connection. If that works, you may need to set up your wireless connection again.
