In this post, I will show you how to stop buffering on FireStick. The troubleshooting steps provided in this guide work on FireStick 4K, Fire TV Stick Lite, Fire TV Cube, as well as older Fire TV devices.
Amazon FireStick is one of the most popular streaming devices worldwide. It is incredibly easy to set up and use. It supports tons of awesome apps from the Amazon Store as well as several third-party apps. All in all, FireStick makes for an amazing streaming experience.
However, many users also experience buffering issues with their FireStick. The percentage of such users is small. However, given that millions of users have FireStick, that small percentage amounts to a considerable number.
If your FireStick keeps buffering all the time, this article discusses various possible reasons and solutions.
Attention, FireStick Users!
Governments and ISPs constantly monitor your online activity, and accessing copyrighted content on your Fire TV Stick could lead to serious trouble. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone. I strongly recommend getting the best FireStick VPN to mask your IP address and securely stream your favorites.
I personally use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN available. Not only is it easy to install on any device, it comes with a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee. Plus, if you're not 100% satisfied, you can always get a refund. ExpressVPN is currently also offering a whopping 3 extra months free on their annual plan!

What causes buffering on FireStick
There are a number of factors that can cause the buffering issue. Here are some of the most common reasons why buffering happens on FireStick:
- Slow internet connection: It is recommended that you have at least 10 Mbps for 1080p and 20 Mbps for 4K streaming. If your internet connection is slow, you will experience buffering issues
- ISP Throttling: Your ISP might slow down your connection speed from time to time if they detect too much streaming activities
- Modem far from FireStick: If your FireStick is placed too far from your Wi-Fi modem, your signal strength will be weak and will cause buffering issues
- Running low on RAM: It is not uncommon for FireStick to run out of RAM. There may be many unnecessary apps running in the background
- Running low on storage: Again, it is common among FireStick users. The device has only 8GB of space, a lot of which is already used up by the OS
- FireStick overheating: If your FireStick is overheating, it is likely to cause buffering issues
- Outdated FireStick OS: You may experience buffering issues on FireStick if it is running on an outdated OS
How to Stop Buffering on FireStick
The following are the solutions to stop buffering on FireStick:
1. Restart FireStick
If you can’t really put a finger on the exact reason causing the FireStick buffering issue, a trick, as simple as restarting your device, could be the solution.
In fact, restarting is one of the most basic troubleshooting methods and it should be one of the first ones to try. It can solve many problems.
Here are the steps:
- Go to FireStick Settings
- Click My Fire TV
- Click Restart
- Click Restart to confirm
2. Take Care of Internet Speed
You probably have high-speed broadband and internet speed is not a problem for you. However, I would still recommend you to check the internet speed as the first troubleshooting step.
If it turns out you are actually getting desirable internet speed on Amazon FireStick, you will have taken this concern out of the way.
And, if it is the slow internet connection behind buffering issues, you can always reach out to your ISP to find out the reason or you might even get a new connection altogether.
Any speed above 10 Mbps is good enough for streaming in up to 1080p resolution
If you stream 4K videos, at least 20 Mbps is recommended.
Here’s how to check internet speed on FireStick
If your FireStick is not receiving the desired internet speed, here’s what you should do next-
Check and improve Wi-Fi signal strength
Signal strength plays a key role in a smooth streaming experience. The signal strength is stronger when the modem is near your FireStick and weaker when it is far.
Here is how you can check the signal strength on Amazon FireStick and act accordingly:
- Go to the Settings from the FireStick home screen
- Click Network on the next window
- Highlight your Wi-Fi address/name
- On the right, you will find the status under Signal Strength
If it says Very Good, you are getting proper Wi-Fi signals. If it says poor or weak, there is a problem.
Usually, the modem should be within 20-30 feet from the device for the best signal strength. If your modem is farther than this, you may want to consider buying a Wi-Fi Extender. As the name suggests, a Wi-Fi Extender expands the coverage area of your modem allowing it to be effective in a larger area.
You also need to make sure that there aren’t too many electrical devices near your modem that may cause interference with the signal.
And, if possible, place the modem a little higher up (6ft or higher) for better signal coverage.
Use Ethernet Cable for Wired Connection
A wired connection is usually much faster than a wireless connection. Firstly, it doesn’t have to rely on the proximity of the router from the device. The Ethernet wire is plugged directly into your Amazon FireStick.
Secondly, there are no obstacles between the router and the device. Many electrical and certain mechanical obstacles can weaken the Wi-Fi signal.
You can control or even stop buffering on FireStick with a wired connection. To use a wired connection on FireStick, you can buy the Amazon Ethernet Adapter for Amazon Fire TV Devices from Amazon.com.
The internet/LAN wire and the power cable from your FireStick power adapter will go into the Ethernet adapter. And then, a single cable from the Ethernet adapter will be plugged into your FireStick.
Note that you DO NOT need to buy the Ethernet Adapter if you are already getting substantial network speed through your Wi-Fi connection.
3. Use a VPN to Prevent Buffering
Recommended for better speed as well as privacy
Internet throttling is a common practice among ISPs. Your internet provider may slow down your internet connection when streaming activities beyond a certain level are detected. As a result, you may experience buffering on FireStick.
Thankfully, this can be easily avoided by using a VPN service for FireStick. A good VPN will not only stop your ISP from throttling speed but will benefit in several ways such as:
- Hide streaming activities from Government surveillance and ISP
- Anonymous torrent downloads
- Safeguards personal information from hackers
- Unblock geo-restricted content (including Netflix, BBC iPlayer, Prime Video, Hulu, HBO, etc.)
In my experience, ExpressVPN is the best VPN for FireStick. It uses the best encryption technology and is the fastest VPN too.
Currently, ExpressVPN is offering a 49% discount on its yearly plan. On top of that, you get 3 months free with this plan. And, it also offers an unconditional 30-day money-back guarantee.
Here is what you can do to get ExpressVPN and avoid buffering on FireStick:
- Click here to sign up for ExpressVPN
- Once you have your ExpressVPN account, turn on your FireStick and select the FIND option in the middle-bar
- Click Search
- Look up ExpressVPN and click it in the search suggestions. Follow the on-screen instructions to install ExpressVPN
- Open ExpressVPN and sign in with your account login details you created during the sign-up
- Connect to a VPN server and start streaming
4. Clear Up FireStick RAM
Amazon FireStick has a RAM size – 1 GB on FireStick 2nd Gen and 1.5 GB on FireStick 4K. That is not quite a lot but enough for a streaming device. However, such small memory tends to get taken up rather too quickly.
Low RAM space is one of the culprits of the buffering you experience on FireStick. You will be surprised to know that some apps keep hogging the RAM even when you close them.
You can clear up the RAM space by simply closing the background applications. But, how would you find which apps are actually running in the background? Force closing all the installed apps individually is tedious and time-consuming.
Thankfully, there is an app you can use to find out the background applications and to close them. It is called the Background Apps and Process List. You can get this free app from the Amazon Store.
Here are the steps to download the Background Apps & Process List app and to use it to close the background apps:
- Go to the FIND option from the FireStick home screen and click Search
- Lookup for the Background Apps and Process List app and follow the on-screen instructions to install it
- Open the app. This prompt is displayed the first time.
- Uncheck the option ‘Open app on boot’ if you don’t want the app to open automatically every time you restart your FireStick
- Click Got it! button
- You will see the list of all the apps running in the background. Click Close All Apps in the top-left corner
- You will see the following window for the first app on the list. Go ahead and click Force Stop
- When you are done, press the back button on the remote.
- You will see the same options for the next app on the list. Click Force Stop again.
- Keep repeating this until you have killed all the background apps
5. Clear Cache/Data of Streaming Apps
Clearing the cache of the streaming apps may help you with the buffering on FireStick. Many users have reported that third-party apps like Cinema APK, Cyberflix TV, Ola TV, BeeTV, etc. performed better after they cleared their cache.
You may also clear the app data to completely reset the app to its default factory settings.
Here are the steps:
- Go to the FireStick Settings from the home screen
- Click Applications
- Open Manage Installed Applications
- You must now see this list of the installed apps
- Go ahead and click the streaming app with buffering issues
- You will find the app data and cache data information on the right section of this window
You can do one of the following:
- Clear data: It will clear all the app related data (including any sign-in information) and reset the app to the factory defaults. It will also clear the cache
- Clear cache: If you just want to clear the cache and keep the remaining data intact, choose this option instead
6. Tweak Your Privacy Settings
Amazon monitors and collects your data on the pretext of marketing and improvement. That is likely to compromise your privacy. But, that’s not just it.
To constantly monitor and collect your data, your FireStick OS must keep certain processes running in the background. This could slow down your FireStick and eventually cause buffering problems.
Here is how you can disable data monitoring and data collection:
- Open FireStick Settings from the home screen
- Click Preferences on the next screen
- Click Privacy Settings
- Turn OFF the following options: Device Usage Data and Collect App Usage Data
- Now, press the back button one time and click Data Monitoring
- Turn OFF Data Monitoring
7. Check and Update the FireStick OS
It is rare, but not unheard of. Outdated FireStick OS may be the reason why you are experiencing buffering issues.
Usually, your FireStick will update itself automatically whenever the new OS version is available. However, sometimes it may not.
So, here are the steps to check for and install OS updates:
- Go to FireStick Settings
- Open My Fire TV
- Click About
- Click Check for Updates
- Wait for a few seconds. Your FireStick will tell you whether any updates are needed or if your device is already up to date
8. Avoid FireStick Overheating
Overheating can cause device malfunction. It can also cause buffering or streaming issues on FireStick. Therefore, it is important that you keep your FireStick from overheating.
Here is our detailed guide on How to Fix FireStick Heating Problem.
While your FireStick can run for several hours without any problem, I recommend that you give it some rest from time to time.
Don’t leave it switched on overnight. Unplug it from the power source.
If you think FireStick has overworked, unplug it from the power source and let it cool down for at least 30 minutes.
9. Use Real-Debrid for 3rd Party Apps
Real Debrid is a premium hoster that works with a wide range of third-party FireStick apps as well as Kodi addons.
Normally, the apps and add-ons connect to the public servers. Such servers will allow access to just about anyone. As a result, they have a high influx of traffic. This, in turn, causes server slowdown, downtime, and buffering issues on FireStick.
Real-Debrid, on the other hand, is a paid service. It restricts the server access to the premium users. Therefore, the streams from Real Debrid are much faster and reliable.
You can integrate Real-Debrid with almost all the popular apps like Cinema HD APK, CyberFlix TV, BeeTV, and more.

Well I read all this and honestly the only thing I could do was unplug everything and wait, and nada. Same issues. Can’t even get ONTO the op itself, just doesn’t go past a black screen after the Amazon logo pops up. It wasn’t any of the issues you spoke of while being on the app itself so the only conclusion I can think of… is it’s fried?? But i thought these were supposed to last a long time? Like 6-8 years? I’ve only had mine for 3… I have to look for an email to contact now since I’m deaf so calling isn’t an option😩
Hi Stephen,
I’m sorry to hear that you are experiencing such a frustrating situation. I suggest you check out our article detailing how to contact Amazon FireStick customer service with options for email and virtual chat. Please let me know if you continue having trouble contacting Amazon FireStick customer service.
Wow thanks! I followed almost all your suggestions and my firestick is back working and not trying to load each show. What a lifesaver! Thanks
Hi Dee,
You’re very welcome! Glad to hear that your FireStick is working normally again.
I did everything also..still buffering
Hi Marie. Please check out our guide on common problems and solutions for FireStick.
Does what it says on the tin! – I keep this as a reference and when buffering is a problem I use – then it’s not a problem anymore.
Hi John, I’m glad we could help!
Hi there, I tried all the options of uninstalling apps, deleting cache, restarting my stick and its now twice as slow. Any further suggestions? My os is up to date too.
Hi Max. Please follow our guide on common problems and solutions for FireStick. If you tried all the solutions to common FireStick problems and none of them worked, you can reach out to Amazon’s FireStick customer support for more professional help. Even then, you may need to purchase a new device, but at least you’ll have confirmation that there’s nothing more you can do.
Max, I have done all the above you’ve recommended. To set the stage here: just bought a LG Smart TV, Visio last one. I’ve bought a streaming service and the sound keeps cutting in/out or will completely just stop/freeze. I’m using a VPN. It doesn’t do this on “all” channels but a selected “few” constantly. Have you heard of this happening? My modem is 2 feet away from my TV also. At a loss….
Hi Tony. If you are using a FireStick, try unplugging the FireStick from its power source for about 30 seconds, then plug back in.
I just read your article and tips. I have had issues with certain channels on You Tube TV being blurry. I went through each step and trick you had in this article and did each oneexists. (Except the VPN), unfortunately the issue still exists.
Internet speed is 34 plus.
I reset my modem just to be safe.
Downloaded the app to find apps running in the background and force stopped all apps to clear ram.
I cleared caches on all apps.
I restarted my 4k firestick.
I checked for updates and none were present.
Changed the privacy settings as suggested as well.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thank you
Hi Jason. Unfortunately, the YouTube TV app seems to be having a lot of issues. This is an issue with YouTube TV, so there is not much that can be done about it except wait to for them to fix the bugs.
I just want to say thanks! I got a firestick 4K and stumbled upon your very informative website. All the information I want and maybe need in de (nearby) future in one place. Keep up the good work and good health to you. Frank J from the Netherlands
Hi Frank, thank you so much for your kind words! I hope you continue to use our FireStick tricks in the future!
all these solutions doesnt work for my issue with the firestick, my ctv app keeps buffering in the middle of the shows and wont start playing again. need to start all over and then fast forward to were i was and let it play and then it happens again.
Hi Patrick. Unfortunately, the CTV app is the issue. The app freezes and has a lot of bugs. If you have tried all of the steps on this guide, there is not much else that you can do.
I’ve had real trouble with most programs and films buffering and have done everything you have said with no luck then I wondered if I took the Internet off my tv if that would fix the problem and guess what
It has done so now I can watch films ect without it stopping every 10 seconds
So if you have your firestick on WiFi and your TV on ethernet there could be a conflict problem
Lately the CTV app on fire stick keeps buffering. Tried all the solutions there are but nothing helps. Updated fire stick , emptied cache, turned off background apps. Need solution for it because it’s starting to become annoying.

When I turn the firestick on it doesn’t go past the firestick logo how can I fix it?
Hi Paul, here is our guide on common problems and solutions for FireStick.

Hi James, I just checked and it is working for me. You may have run into temporary issues, please try again.
I cannot clear the cache from my firestick . I have followed allthe instructions and when I press clear cache it defaults to applications. Ican clear programmes cache but no firestick and one or two amaxon apps.
Hi Marilyn, there was a temporary issue preventing people from clearing cache on all apps. The issue has since been resolved, please try again. Here is a more in depth guide on how to clear cache on FireStick.
Paramour Plus on Firetv 4k, will load and display the shows, and show the preview. When trying to stream I get an error, I think 6300, and everything stops. Happens on all 4 of my Firetvs. I have reset modem, router, Firetv, force stopped, cleared cache, uninstalled and reinstalled. Cannot stream Paramount Plus. Talking to a friend the other day, and they are having the same problem.
Hi Thomas, you may be trying to stream content from too many devices at once. Paramount+ limits every account to two simultaneous streams. Make sure you are only signed in to two devices at once.
Only my one App (ParamountPlus) buffers all the time. I clear the cache on a regular basis, and it usually helps – but not all the time. I will try several of your other suggestions here. They make sense, and as a technical writer, I have to say your instructions are simple and easy to understand. Thank you! gm
Hi Glenn, thank you for your kind words! Make sure you give some of our other suggestions a shot.
None of this helps if the stick won’t boot up
Hi Marc, here is a guide to common problems and solutions that might help: FireStick Not Working? Common Problems & Solutions (2022)
My 3rd Gen Firestick keeps buffering for ONLY Disney Plus. Every other app works okay, but Disney Plus will play for a minute and then buffers till I exit out completely. I’m able to watch Disney Plus with no issues on my other devices, HELP!! I tried all the steps above (Restarted, checked speed and strength, cleared cache), everything passed with flying colors!
Hi Erin, try deleting the Disney Plus app entirely then downloading it again. Here is a guide: How to Install & Watch Disney+ on FireStick (2022)
Let me just say…I’ve been trying to find a solution for why my YouTube TV app would get stuck buffering for two weeks now. I tried everything. I bought new eero routers thinking it was my wifi. I argued with my wifi provider. I unplugged, uninstalled, turned off, signed out…everything. I chatted with YouTube TV support, submitted feedback logs…they were stumped. I tried at least 20 different articles trying to find something to troubleshoot the issue and nothing helped until your article. BLESS YOU! You’ve saved me countless additional hours and money (thinking I needed to replace each piece of hardware). At a minimum, this solution should be in the Help section for Amazon Firestick. THANK YOU!
Why does my fire stick connect to 5 ghz not 2.4
I think this causes my buffering
Hi Alex, which FireStick device do you have?
Thank you for your simplified instructions, I’m new to the fire stick and all it’s bells and whistles. You allow me to be educated about this without me being frustrated.
When you are using VPN and chose any server outside US, Amazon will not let you use PRIME services! They want to know what are you doing, what are you using, what are you watching….simply they cannot spy on you!
BTW Firestick 4k have 5GB storage, not 1.5.
Hi Johan, you are right. FireStick 4K has 5GB storage. However, 1.5GB refers to the RAM and not the storage.
Thank you Patrick. Very helpful. Easy to follow and had some things I have never seen anywhere before. Cheers pal, Mark Macquarrie.
Thanks. You just saved my day
HI Patrick, thanks for the page I followed through the instructions and my sony srs x55 Bluetooth speaker is now working as planned and buffering has stopped.
Thank you so very much! This fixed my problem! I am not tech savvy but this was super easy to follow. I cannot tell you how grateful I am you put this out here for helping people. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you, Mitford. Your feedback is really motivating.
Happy Me!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! This video was a miracle. Very detailed and simple to follow.
I’ve recently upgraded to the 4K version and at that time, switched from Kodi to Catmouse. Since then I get so much buffering. So bloody frustrating. I’ve changed a few settings (data collection, etc) as per your recommendations, but still so much buffering. Ugh!
Hi Trena, sorry to hear that. Are you using Real Debrid? Do you have a VPN? There are plenty of better apps than CatMouse you can try. Here is our list: https://www.firesticktricks.com/amazon-fire-stick-apps.html
I have installed the philo app. It keeps buffering and won’t let me watch a program. How do I fix the problem? ( I use a modem of Verizon for internet services along with my firestick).
Hi Sonya, are other apps streaming without buffering on your FireStick? Did you check the speed?
My new Firestick 4K is only showing dL speed of 3.9 When i speed test it. Any other device I speed test shows anywhere from 40 to 60 mbps on the same WiFi network.
Hi Brad, are you using a VPN? If yes, which VPN and which server have you connected to?
Great post thanks. I went through everything on here however with no success. I’ve had buffering issues since Jan 1st having used a firestick for 3 years with no issues. Nothing has changed in that time in terms of my setup.
Eventually I found a fix. I moved the firestick to a new HDMI port on the TV. This fixed the problem. Why? I have no idea and it doesn’t make any sense to me.
The old hdmi location doesn’t appear to be at fault. My DVD player is now using that slot and it works just fine.
Hopefully someone finds this useful
I’ve tried everything here also. Nothing has worked
Hi Laura, which app or streaming service are you using?
Hi all my apps are up to date latest versions but when you click on an app I just get the circle loading and nothing else, then a message “ connection to the server failed”. I’ve tried everything possible and still nothing… what can this be
Hi Sarah, apologies for the late reply. Which apps are you using? Are you still experiencing the same issue?
We have been getting a lot buffering, only on Prime. Our Modem is right next to the Fire Stick. We have updated equipment from Hughes Net. Any suggestions? We do live rural in a mountainous area. Also, will clouds cause buffering? Thank you!
Hi Linda, clouds do not affect your internet connection or buffering. Did you check the internet speed on FireStick? What speeds are you getting? Here is our guide on how to check internet speed on FireStick: https://www.firesticktricks.com/test-internet-speed-on-firestick.html

My internet is 600/600 and I use a GB router but my 4k fire stick only ever connects to it around 100 on either the wifi or using the ethernet adapter. Any ideas?
Hi Mike, honestly, I am not quite sure why. However, 100 Mbps is more than enough for any type of streaming (including 4K).
My cinema hd buffers a lot so much I usually turn it off while trying to watch a show. Do I need a real debrid. I don’t use/have kodi. Will it help if I get a vpn? I used all the suggestions today will see if that helps. Thank you
Hi Darlene, take a look at this post: https://www.firesticktricks.com/cinema-apk-buffering.html

I have a 4k firestick. I use the ethernet adapter to connect to my router. I want to add a thumb drive to increase my drive space. Can i connect this and still use my ethernet adapter too ? Looks like i would need a different adapter. Thanks
Hi Britt, you could buy the Amazon Ethernet Adapter that would let you connect wired internet and USB drive simultaneously.
Why when I open Netflix or daisy plus on fire stick they skip the profile screen.
Is there a way to add MT08 as game controller?
It does not get recognized in settings.
Hi Mark, go to Settings > Controllers & Bluetooth Devices > Game Controllers to pair the device. However, if it is not getting recognized, it is probably incompatible.
When I stream to watch channels it always freeze! I’ve cleared the cache. I’ve restarted the Firestick. Please help
Hi Lawanda, which apps are you using?
Love this. I was having buffering issues so as instructed I went into background apps and by accident I clicked on Force Stop on my PVN. I knew it immediately that I should not have so I clicked on launch app. I checked to see my VPN was still connected and it is. Did I mess up here and if so tell me how to fix it. Thanks
Hi Janlyn, I don’t think there is anything to worry about here.
Hi, I have very few apps downloaded and only use Mobdro for Live tv but it buffers a lot. I have Express VPN, have done everything above except point 9. I don’t mind paying to get better live tv but live in Switzerland not USA, any ideas ?
Hi Barry, if Mobdro isn’t working fine for you, you may try one of the other Live TV apps from this list: https://www.firesticktricks.com/amazon-fire-stick-apps.html#Best_FireStick_Apps_for_Sports_Live_TV
Sorry Sandra posted as a comment rather than an answer. I had this problem too, which is how I know the answer.
You are either not using the correct power supply unit or your PSU is dodgy.
If the current limits, which is more than likely the case, the PSU cannot supply the amount of current needed so it glitches and resets the stick.
Hi, I am using the amazon fire stick. The main (HOME) screen comes up but as soon as I scroll over to MOVIES and click, the screen goes black and it loads again showing input/close; then Amazon appears; then fireTV stick; then the main screen (home). So AGAIN, I scroll to MOVIES, click and the same thing happens all over again. So far i have loaded the latest update and checked the WiFi signal strength which was very good.
Hi Sandra, your problem looks unique. Try restarting FireStick. If restarting doesn’t work, you may want to reset the device and start over. Here is our guide on how to reseet your FireStick: https://www.firesticktricks.com/how-to-reset-firestick.html
Just tried this app. On first screen it shows about 10 apps. But if I click on system/user on top it shows 157 apps saying they are open in background, with the vast majority of them having the Amazon fire orange logo. Should I close all of those? I am referring to the Background apps and Process List.
Hi Mark, just close the apps on the first screen.

Any input?
Hi Joe, the app has been updated to the latest version 1.12. Uninstall the existing version and install the new version. This might help.
dump the firestick and just buy an android streaming device
Amazon prime video and Netflix do not allow the use of VPN, at least not in Canada.
Hi Mike, if you are unable to find a working server for Prime Video or Netflix, simply contact the VPN provider. They will share the server details that are working for these services.
