Peacock TV

It might be the version of the app on your streaming device or an option in the streaming device...look for updates for the app..I dunno which streaming device you use..But when roku does a system software update..that very often causes issues with apps optimized for the older software...just a thought

My 2024 Roku Ultra has been perfect with all services.

What do you mean by loss of signal? Loss of Internet connection to your location?

Internet will cut out here or there. Quite commonly. But very briefly. Willow (cricket) and Peacock suck at managing that. Most of my other apps do just fine.

Loss of signal from the live source to Peacock's servers? I haven't noticed Peacock buffering any more or less than any other app recently. I rarely see any buffering at all any more.

I think it is the App design, not Peacock's server.

Who are you using for service?

And do you have any other options?

With what you wrote above, not really the app or what device's fault.

Understood. Sounds like it needs a bigger buffer configured in the app. You can always try letting them know about the issue: Peacock

Sorry Jimbo but, for once, I'm going to be on Juan's side here. All he did was to add that if you had Comcast internet the same service is free. That is just as important information as yours was. Just so you know I have Comcast internet but I opt to sub to their ad free Premium Plus. I use Peacock a lot and the extra money is worth it to me.
