Bad fan last night. Watched from the comfort of my own home. On the plus side the catering was excellent. The pale ale was reasonably priced which I could drink from the bottle and my chilli was better than anything I've ever had at the Amex.

I digress. Did anyone watch the game on the abomination that is Sky sports +? Buffering and resetting like a dodgy stream on a moody fire stick. Looking at the Sky Forums and twitter it's a common occurrence for Tennis and the multiple football games and it's borderline unwatchable.

Something for you all to look forward to for the next round.

Yeah it was poor for me as well. I briefly switched on a few of the other games to see if they were having the same problems and they were. Shame, I was going to complain to Virgin because I thought it was their useless WiFi.

Given it happened to me and I have 1Gb, no.
Doesn’t matter what you’ve been sold, it’s what you’re actually getting. Could also be how you’re getting the content etc - loads of variables

Any chance the issue is a Sky Q Mini box as that is what I was using? It can stream Netflix, Amazon, Youtube etc so isn't the box or connection directly. But I gave up after 70 minutes and watched SSN. Must have frozen 60 times and kicked me out 3 times.

Couldn't find the game at all on my TV with Firestick and the Now TV app , half way through the 2nd half tried on the lap top though and showed up there .

Usually Sky sports on Now is good on the firestick with only 20Mpbs of wifi speed , no buffering and picture quality slightly better than freeview via the ariel

Same here on all counts.
