It's definitely the bandwidth for us, so if you try @birdofafeather suggestion, that should help! Hope you get it figured out! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tech-savvy-bees#post-332153 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 15:38:20 +0000 DillonLion 332153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Thanks! Will try this when I get home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tech-savvy-bees#post-332150 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 15:37:12 +0000 birdofafeather 332150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>check your speeds via speedtest.net. we have 15MB service and have no issues streaming multiple things. we have a Roku (same idea as apple tv) and i can do things on my ipad or laptop while watching. </p> <p>we did just have to have someone come in and make sure our wires were good because all of a sudden we couldn't upload anything! download was working fine, but upload sucked. if your speeds are matching what you're supposed to have, i don't know what else to tell ya! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tech-savvy-bees#post-331711 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 12:39:02 +0000 DillonLion 331711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelingbrit: Thanks! Yes, still suffering! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tech-savvy-bees#post-331708 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 12:36:30 +0000 wheres_c 331708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure if you're still suffering with this problem.<br /> We also have AT&amp;T Uverse and had similar issues, but we upgraded to the second tier internet ( I think extra $5/month) This stopped all issues and can watch netflix via Roku while we're both on our tablets or laptops.</p> <p>I would double check and make sure your internet is password protected so that noone is stealing your bandwith. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tech-savvy-bees#post-328849 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 21:37:00 +0000 DillonLion 328849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@knittylady: hmm good to know! Only apple products in my scenario is the apple tv. My phone and laptop are both not from Apple. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tech-savvy-bees#post-328846 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 21:31:26 +0000 knittylady 328846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I don't know the answer to this but I'm at my in-laws puppy sitting and they have an appleTV. DH and I both noticed that the remote for the apple TV keeps messing with our macbooks! We can't choose a new show without weird volume effects and random apps opening! Arg! </p> <p>so yeah, not the answer but thought I'd join you in the two mac products don't make a right head scratcher... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tech-savvy-bees#post-328811 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 20:55:11 +0000 DillonLion 328811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure if anyone can help, but I thought I would put it out there!</p> <p>We have AT&amp;T Uverse internet, and stream our Netflix via an AppleTV console. </p> <p>Lately, anytime I am trying to use the laptop and Apple TV(for Netflix) at the same time, both seem to endlessly buffer and the signal goes in and out constantly. It is so annoying! I can basically only use one at a time: either my laptop or the Netflix/AppleTV. </p> <p>Do we need a more powerful internet connection or something? I can't imagine what we have isn't powerful enough to allow us to run two pieces of technology on the wifi at the same time, but maybe that uses a lot of "bandwith" or whatever the right word is for that. I'm obviously no expert. </p> <p>I did turn off the wifi on my phone, so maybe that will help things a little so there isn't an additional device on the wifi....</p> <p>Anyway, anyone know anything about this or how to make it better? </p>
