Thanks so much for all your great info and time! Your #1 in my book Curiosity Cafe!

I am new to the firestick and your videos are very helpful to me. I'm learning everyday.
This fixed mine...before down 67....now down 127....thank you, Tx
Hey buddy! Of all the others that I have watched in my quest for knowledge, you rule! Thank you for being here! I have learned so much from you! Cheers and Happy New Year!
OMG!!!! I did everything that you said WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Thank you so much. So glad I found your channels 🙌 ☺....
I have done this and other suggestions you have made and they do make a big difference. Thanks for all the info you provide.
This was the most helpful of all the videos dealing with this subject. I followed your instructions and found that my vpn was the culprit for the most part. 60 download/9 upload with it on. 220 download/40 upload with it turned off. What a pisser. Thanks for the video!
Hi I Live in the UK my internet speed 13down 17 up but it’s never been good at weekend and thanks to you I have learnt loads of things on my fire stick
I was getting app not found issues, but I checked later that day and it was there. After downloading it I had 21apps running. Thanka for this and all your other videos on the firesticks.
I'm a subscriber Mr curiosity but I'm new to all this and I'm going thru your videos to gain as much information as I can possible learn from you and your the man with the plan.. thanks Mr. Curiosity
Thanks so much, I have a big problem with buffering all the time. It helped tremendously, my speed went from 64 to 87! Thanks again.
As a follow-up to my previous comment, I wanted to share this with you: After installing the Anality speed tester, I was shocked to learn that my speeds were a dismal 12/1 to 11/1.5. (We reside in a rural community.) Pursuant to this revelation, I contacted my local internet provider and they offered to double it at no extra cost. I am now getting a speed of 29/2.4. had it not been for you, I would not have known why I was experiencing so much buffering or why I was unable to enjoy high-quality shows. A HUGE THUMBS UP and a GREAT BIG THANKS TO YOU!
I'm glad you were able to work that out with them. We also contacted our provider because of the slow speeds and they said they are having issues and we got a free month of wifi. So it's always good to call and ask about it.
Very informative , Keep up the good work, Thank you. More information relating to the firestick operating from the UK and Italy is always welcome.
Southeast Alabama. Great video Mr. CC thanks
Thanks again... I went from 111 to 149...bless you..! Ron
Thanks again, I have two non 4k firesticks. I had low download speed on one. I did all tips from this video and it made a big difference to my speed. I also changed from guest internet to my regular internet and again that increased my speed by another 20. I was able to finally get up to 100mpbs.
Loved this video, often wondered why at times the fire stick seemed so slow, lots of open things in the back ground, on the speed test i went from 68 to 115 THANK YOU :) from NH
In the US, stated @ 90 -21 @ the end after clear cache and restart now @ 115-31thanks and following💯
Absolutely great youtuber. I have subscribed. Here in Cork, Ireland I have 16 down and 15 up. With the covid 19 lockdown I reckon this has downgraded our speeds here. I would normally get approximately 30 up and 20 down. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Your video was helpful, I will drop cable now for sure, Thanks Sandra
When I started your video I tested at 60! But after these adjustments I'm now at 115. Thanks
Dan M great news!
Thank you for taking the time and walking us through this process!! I followed it all the way through and doubled my speed! Thank you so much! I am severely technologically challenged and you helped me so much!
I learn so much from you. Thank you. You make it clear and concise! I have some questions but don’t want to sound stupid in asking so I’ll try googling them. Appreciate this channel so much as we have 6 fire sticks we use.
Excellent, as allways
Thanks very much, this helped a great deal. A rogue VPN was bringing signal down from 50 Mbs to 8 Mbs.
thanks for the info Pal, I'm watching it now on TV as Iam watching your video on my desktop PC!
Another great video thanks buddy you have helped me so much with all these tips 😃
Hey there from the Emerald Isle (Ireland). I just found your channel. Thank you for simplifying all this techy stuff. I'm a 50 something none tech savvy girl. I'm gonna have a go at this tomorrow as i downloaded the zini tv thing tonight from a previous video you posted but its running a bit sluggish so i'm hoping this will solve my problem.... thanks again
Very helpful tip 👍 thx
Thanks for the helpful info. 57 down and 20 up... In Florida
You made it look so simple to jailbreak. Thank you for the tips!
Just found your channel, great information. We live in the country so only have 33 down but really have very little if any buffering tho. Doing what you said did increase from 22 to 33 tho. Thank You
Thanks CC using the new speed test and uninstalled the old one. The other options I already check daily.
Awesome video. Thank you. Never knew I had these apps on the fire stick. Improved my download / upload speeds tremendously.
Awesome video! Will try this! Thanks!!
Great info. I am in a campground in South Georgia and get 21 down/12 up and actually get pretty good results. About only buffering is sometimes on live sports.

I Thank you for this Video it has helped me a LOT I am up from 45 to between 65-70, It is not consistent though... not sure why. I have a question; you mentioned that you use Express VPN always. Is there a reason you use this over Nord or IP Vanish? I would appreciate your impute.
ILove all your videos

Thank you for all the great info
Thanks!
Great video, Every little bit helps with streaming!
Outstanding
I went from 62 to 86! Thanks for the help
Great news
I never have buffering issues since I learned how to add an OTG x USB2.0 Y adapter & added a 32 gig USB 3.1 flash drive with 200MB/s speed. Then I placed every program on the flash drive leaving over 3GB of cache. Experimented further realizing WiFi is a radio wave & the 4K Firestick was blocked by the TV. Purchased a male to female HDMI 2.0 extension cable 18 inches long. Removed the short 2 inch jumper & plugged directly the Firestick with the extension cable. Instantly picked up 40MB/s download speed. I have now done both with all my Firesticks with similar improvements.
sounds very interesting
THANKS CURIOSITY
Thx for this, your videos are so informative. I'm trying to figure out the marked difference between two tvs/firesticks about 25 feet apart. One sitting on top router runs 41/38 gained some ground after router reset 53/47 and then no material change after clearing cache and closing background apps. Corresponding numbers on firestick that is further away were 178/72 and then got it up to 260/196. The one difference other than different tvs is the faster speed is a 4K whereas the slower is not
Thanks 😊
Great video thanks
I checked my speed and it was below 20 download. I did the things you suggested and now it's st 93. Thank you
Great news
Thanks, I actually got mine to 101 from 38. You are the best.
First off this is a great video. I just want to put my 2 cents in to see if this will help any body. I have 75x75 for my internet . when I tested I was getting 70x60 not bad but then I noticed in the upper left conner it show the wireless your connected to I was connected on my 2.4ghz signal. I went into the settings>wireless and picked a 5ghz signal to connect to and bam I jumped upto 84x65. Oh BTW I'm only about 15ft away from my router no obstructions in the way like walls and such. there are many factors that can effect your wireless speeds. so before you complain to your ISP do some research on your part to eliminate any issues you might have..I noticed you were connected over a vpn that could have a bit to do with your speed results as well. hope this helps , if you have any questions I'd be glad to help if I can.
This really helped a lot. Thanks.
Your videos are on point. I really wish I could get n contact with you about fire stick 💯
Thanks!
thank you work great
Hi. I'm in south Georgia. After watching this video, and following the steps, I've gone from a download of 34, to a 54. And upload from 4 to a 9.
This was cool...after following you min speed is 177 then 10...think it's good...thank you for the tutorial
this help big time
Thank you very much!!
Go Info! Enjoy your Video's,,,Keep up the Great Work!!!! Thanks!
I just tested my speed:

another test:
down 170 / 12 up
Thanks for sharing...
Are u wired or wireless ????
@@tman9338 it is wireless.
You are a life saver bud, this took my download speed and tripled it! KUDOS to you for this video!
Thanks
Thank you for all of your sharing. You have a lot of great info and I always look forward to your videos. Can you run your speed test with your vpn on? Mine dramatically dropped from 173d/129u to 51d/62 u using PowerVPN
We have a few videos with our VPN. We drop as well. As long as you keep about 45-50mbps you are good
Thanks so much, this has helped tremendously. Great apps. Great info. 🤙
Do you happen to have the PIN for the new OLA?
Great video and thank you for sharing. I've done all the steps like you had mentioned in your tutorial and my speed is 64/22 wireless and farthest away from the router.. but hv a booster in the same rm. 5G over Copper as Fiber is unavailable where I live in the city.
Thank you ✌️
Am in Jamaica and it doesn't work good
I really do appreciate these videos a lot I think I have problems with my firestick thou. I have awesome internet after we force stopped and cleared cache it was like 210-138
Man great u are awesome 👌 my speed jumped to 90/15up iam in joliet IL
More great help.
Hi there , Toronto Canada 🇨🇦 hope all is well. First and foremost thank you for the videos you are absolutely awesome I’m still trying to hang on and keep up with you while I am watching you on my phone and trying to do what you’re suggesting to do on my TV can get kind of tricky at times, there still slow users out here but thank you very much really appreciate your videos you’re awesome , My speed’s are 31 down/3 up.
I find certain apps will cause more buffering than others. Like if I’m trying to watch big fat liar on cinema each episode I have a really hard time buffering then if I give up and go to another app maybe Jem CBC gem and watch Schitt’s Creek it doesn’t buff why is that can anyone tell me, and thank you in advance
awesome job I like this video a lot. It gave me some pointers on how to check for speeds and what we can actually stream. We had to get a new modem because our speed was increased. We have a 4K TV with a 4K cable box in a 4K firestick. The strength and quality in Wi-Fi for the 4K is good but the speed is not. Do you suggest that we increase our speed?
I have to be honest, I'm looking to actually get rid of cable because I'm getting tired of the high cost but right now we are getting by with what we have until we disconnect.
Thank you so much for that information, I sure experience buffering alot, ready to stop it,
Thanks
@@CuriosityCafe you're very welcome
Great info that's what I do learned from your channel. Will be increasing my internet speed this month. But for the most part only minor buffering sometimes and I just try different location for better stream!!! 🎬🎥🎤👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I purchased the fire stick adapter and additional 25ft cord. I try to stream movies and still have a buffer problem not as much as before. Pluto TV, Netflix et run fine but other Apps drag. I have the AT&T snap plan because of my income. The speed test gave me these results, Down 35 up 5 720HD 1080 HD 4K all green checks. 8K red X. I did not add an VPN because you said it would slow me down. Should I still add an VPN with my speed? Thank you again for your help!
hi im new 2 this im getting down 31 / 6 up. im leicester uk.happy new year.
Great video with great tips! Thanks again. My speeds are 84 down/13 up. Seems my upload speed is pretty low🤔
Great can follow you ion Canada
I'm going to try all of these steps today. I have been trying to watch Cinema after installing it on my Firestick, so far I have not been able to watch it as it will just keep buffering. I have been trying to watch the new Maleficent movie. I never have a problem with Netflix, Prime or Crave, just with all the new stuff I have installed from your videos.
Select a lower quality image
@@CuriosityCafe So, yesterday I did all the checks that you showed, my speed is fantastic. 220 down load. I still ended up selecting approximately 500MB link instead of the 1.9GB link that it suggested. After the initial buffering the movie started right up. It only buffered a couple of times near the beginning then played all the way thru. The quality did not seem bad at all. Thanks
Great video 👍! I am hardwired in to my 150 Meg modem and am only getting 75 on the Fire stick. It still buffers sometimes when trying to watch live TV. I will try some of the things you showed us today. Thanks for your help as always.
Sounds good Dave. Hopefully this helps you.
