Always has to buffer/loses connection

Charged Matrix · Apr 5, 2016

Okay guys, so a couple weeks ago my xbox started having to constantly buffer when watching Hulu/Netlfix and losing connection when playing Madden. I tested the xbox connection and all the stats were good enough for what I was trying to do. I checked my firewalls
and ports but there werent any problems there. The RSSI is -51 dBs which is outstanding. Yet it always losses connection or has to buffer. It doesnt do this when Im at my friends houses. Please help this is really annoying.

Now TV and Netflix on Xbox One vs PS3/4

I had problems with NowTV stopping the stream every 5-10 minutes, connection was always on!
Anyway I checked my nat settings on Xbox and it was moderate so I configured dmz for XB1 and since then it has not buffered once!

Remote controls always loses connection.

I have an Xbox One that I have already done all the procedures described on the site, but the remote keeps crashing too much - it loses the connection. I have 2 controls, but both fail the same. Can you help me?

Are you saying that when you have your console at a friends house it doesn't do the buffering?

Yes, when I take it to a friends it works fine

Well the only thing I can really think of is that the computer is going to be a lot more lenient about disconnects, most computers will attempt to reconnect for up to a minute before they actually tell you there's a problem. The streaming of TV would also
be a little different than the way the game works because it's a 1 way transaction with a buffer, so if it loses connection it will just read from the buffer until the connection is established again.

The xbox however isn't going to be able to buffer gaming. If it's losing connection it will have to disconnect because most everything it does is real time, I'd only be able to suggest hooking up another xbox to the connection and seein how that works since
that's the only real device that will operate on the same principles. It's not a computer, it uses those components but ultimatly it's whole operating system fits on a flash rom chip on the motherboard, so it can't be as complex and forgiving as any computer.
