For the future, if you have a smart tv you can get the WatchESPN app if you have a tv provider. It looks great with a decent internet connection. Watched on my tv no problem.

I am a geek. I was getting skipping for the WKU game so I plugged in to a solid 100Mbps connection with low latency and it still skips. Even the replay on ESPN3 skips. I know nothing anymore. So add me to the need help list.

Happened today to me on cable connected PS4, Roku 3, and an i7 PC with a $500 video card.

That is puzzling. I was on a PC not nearly as good as that with a hardwired connection that I'm pretty sure isn't 100 Mbps and had almost no issues at all.

Try rebooting your router first ( unplug ) - then reboot ( unplug ) your application Roku fire stick fire TV xbox etc. If you're viewing via a desktop computer try clearing your cache in advanced settings for your browser.

If any of these methods do not work take all of your equipment in the backyard pour gasoline on it and light it on fire

Extremely puzzling. I’m on Roku premiere +. However, I have 200Mbps, but you think 100 would be enough. However, mine is smooth as tv. Hopefully you can figure it out because that would be extremely frustrating.

Edit: of course I kinda wish mine cut off the last 2 minutes of the WKU game lol.

My beloved mentor,OTP, gave me these instructions when my Roku was constantly freezing and reloading. I followed his wise advise and had a perfect, uninterrupted viewing of the last game.

Minus lighting it on fire haha.

People think you have to have a hundred megabyte down to stream smoothly you don't if it's not congested you could easily do it with 3 to 8. Netflix recommends 10. But there are so many variables your equipment your internet connection the transmission from the source. I prefer YouTube live it's a great app and you can share up to 6 accounts with DVR and unlimited cloud. That's about it.

The YouTube does sound good. Too bad I can’t support Google for personal reasons but for anyone else that’s pretty darn good. I thought I got a bargain DirectvNow for $35/month for life with 2 accounts and 100 channels (all sports (ESPN/Fox/CBS/NBC). biggest downside was no DVR.

Plenty of options fellas (PSVue/DTVNow/YouTube/Sling). Just need a decent internet and a good router if you want to stream 4k HDR (Amazon).

CBS sports too? That's pretty much a must in the AAC

Yep! Very happy as my past provider couldn’t even offer it. DTVNow just needs DVR and add-on accounts and it’s will be perfect.
