TROUBLESHOOTING

Common setup questions

Quick fixes if login, EPG, or Wi-Fi needs a small adjustment.

What broadband speed do I need for Full HD and 4K in New Zealand?

Allow at least 15 Mbps for Full HD and 25–30 Mbps per 4K stream. Connect Smart TVs to your Spark, One NZ, 2degrees, or Mercury Fibre router via Ethernet wherever possible.

I see "Invalid details" or "Authorization Failed". What should I check?

Ensure no extra spaces were pasted after the URL or password, check uppercase I vs lowercase l, and verify the exact http:// or https:// prefix and port.

Why does a live channel buffer during busy evening hours?

Reboot your router and TV, test wired Ethernet, or switch stream format from MPEG-TS to HLS (m3u8). See all 8 tips in How to Fix IPTV Buffering.

How do I refresh an empty TV guide (EPG)?

Open Settings > EPG > Update EPG and align the offset to Pacific/Auckland.
