Generally, it’s probably down to your internet connection if you are experiencing buffering or playback issues on BBC iPlayer. However, there are things you can try to improve your streaming experience.
First, check your internet connection and make sure it is fast enough to support streaming. If you use WiFi, try a wired connection or move your device closer to your router to reduce interference.
Clearing the cache and data of the BBC iPlayer app on your device may also help. If you use a VPN, try disabling it or switching to a different server.
