Model :

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version :

ISP :

I have the TP-R470T load balance Routers and have connected both my ADSL routers to the TP -R470T. Instead of 7mbps per ADSL router , I'm now getting 14mbps through the TP-R470T which is great. However when I stream Showtime, HBO or prime through Apple TV Gen 4, the apps just keep buffering every 1-2 mins. This doesn't happen with Hulu or other streaming apps. Is there a setting that I'm missing out on?

It has something to do with the video source server, the bandwidth you have, and the network congestion condition.

Thanks FearthebeardIm not sure this is the case because Hulu, Netflix and Amazon Prime are all streaming perfectly.Showtime and HBO say they can’t help because I have a load balancer. Any further ideas would be great.

This is the tips that HBO gives? That's a important part you didn't say. I just think you should enable Application Optimized Routing. Have a try and let's see what happens
