What model router do you have?

This sounds like packet loss - due to either cpu, or else network congestion or a network link that's taking errors.

Make sure the CPU of the router isn't hitting 100% when you're watching the stream - if so, then you might need to either simplify/improve your firewall rules or else use a more powerful router.

Make sure your Internet speed isn't being maxed out when watching a stream.

I have CRS125-24G-1S-2HnD-IN and CPU usage is 40%-60% when streaming.

I've seen other people have improvements when they set the interface queue type to ethernet-default instead of only-hardware-queue.

How to set queue type to ethernet default?

I'd like to bump this one. Has anybody ever solved this? Looking over the forums this seems to be one thing nobody has an good answer too.

(I'm also seeing lot's of artifacts with UDP/IPTV)
