[Solved] IPTV Cutting & Buffering Issues: How a VPN Can Improve Streaming Experience (CyberGhost 7)

Hello.

Some time ago I wrote about problems with IPTV and that it does not depend on my connection, because whether I had 45Mbps or 75Mbps it was the same.
The only thing you could watch on was the phone, because it was a massacre on both PC and TV.

I started looking at this problem from a different angle.
I found out that a lot of people also have such problems, and not necessarily the problem is with the consumer, but with the provider of such a file - a lot of people, server load, etc., etc.

I read that one of the people is using a VPN and there are no such problems anymore.
I decided to do a test today and installed a one-day ver. of CyberGhost 7, I fired a list that was cutting. The program set up some IP from Warsaw and, to my surprise, the list works without any problems.

I thought it was an episode and that, for example, they have a lower server load and I turned off the program, I did a network reset so that the router would set the IP from the operator and I fire the list - as it was yesterday, cuts, buffering, it was impossible to watch.

Re-fire the VPN program and again as he took his hand - smoothness.

Someone explain it to me rationally :)

The second thing is how to do it, if possible, so that such a VPN works without a computer, for example from a router? So that the IP changes regardless of me and the program launched on the computer.

Different route of packets, through other hosts with higher priority.

But you need a router with the ability to run a VPN client.

I have a router - B529s-23a

I went into options and I have something like this:



EDIT:
I do not know if I read it correctly, but without a permanent IP I will not do anything with this option

In some cases, a VPN helped me personally in terms of buffering, and it was tangible, but unfortunately not every IPTV allows VPN changes.

Thanks a lot for the info.

Regards and health.
