Does anyone use the Veetle app here to stream movies and stuff?
What happens for me is the stream will randomly end and when I return to the homescreen when this happens, my WiFi is shown as disconnected. After a second it will connect again, and the whole thing repeats.
I've reinstalled the app to no avail.
Would like to know if other users are experiencing this as well. Thanks!
Just for future reference, I found the solution. I turned off wireless-N on my router. Seems like it doesn't play nice with the N7.

I have my tv, my pc, my nas, my WD live and my phone all connected under the same network of course.
As I was watching a tv show, I picked the phone to answer to a what's app conversation and the tv shows frozed for 5 seconds on the TV.
I thought it was a one time case. Tonight I was watching another tv show and the same thing happened! Once I pick the phone and use its connection it makes the WD live freeze!
This must be a problem of the Galaxy nexus because I just bought it and with my old Desire S I never had this issue.
I'm on Black Bean AOKP and it uses the franco kernel. Any idea on what the problem might be?
Many thanks.

Looks like your phone hogs all the data when you use your phone. Maybe what's app is at fault. Try doing something else that uses a lot of data on your phone while streaming on your tv (say, watch you tube on the phone) and see if you get that sudden spike in usage. If it doesn't occur, could be what's app is the culprit and you need to contact the dev or find a new app

Will do tonight. It never occured to me that it could be a what's app problem. :good:
I'll post it if I have updates, you never know on the internet who might have your same problem.

I reinstalled what's app, looks like doing so solved the issue.
So I'm having issues with my Nexus 7 casting to my TV. I can cast fine if I have my tablet on and active but once I turn off the screen and set it aside, whatever I'm casting will only go for a minute or so before cutting off. It seems as if my WiFi is turning off and telling Chromecast to stop playing. I have already made sure to "Keep WiFi On Always" and also disabled "WiFi Optimization." The odd thing is that I do not have this issue with my HTC One.
I've tested this with Pandora, Songza, and Viki. I have also clean flashed stock OTA, CleanROM, and CM11. All no luck. The only solution I have found is to use an app called REGPON wifi KeepAlive. Does anyone else have a similar experience that can help me so that I'm not dependent on this app?
Nobody else owns an N7 with a Chromecast and has issues?

Hi,
I am also having the same issue with Viki. It is happening not just only on Nexus 7 but also on Nexus 5 too. I realized that other than Google apps the rest of the apps have this issue.
I'm having the exact same problem, whether using my Windows 8.1 PC or Nexus 7, but does NOT occur with HBO GO, but does with Pandora, Songa. Haven't figured out the solution yet.
Under WiFi advanced settings, check the keep WiFi on during sleep setting is set to always.

I have the pro 10.1 SM-T520 stock everything never messed with it at all.
Any way I try and stream videos I have problems. At the very least it will be laggy, the audio will play and the video will freeze, and my entire tablet will become unresponsive. Even worse, it will sometimes turn off my WiFi, and then turn it back on, no matter which wifi I'm connected to. It doesn't matter if I'm on YouTube, Amazon, Netflix, or in my browser, I can't stream any video properly.
Is this a common issue? Are there any fixes for this?
TIA

Could be your router or your provider causing the problem. Have you tried a different wifi, like a friends house, to see if it happens elsewhere? Maybe try a different router. Right now I have 12 devices connected to my home network, 7 of them are wireless. My son is currently watching Youtube, my other son is playing multiplayer game on my PS3, my wife is playing WOW with a sports channel playing on her Tab Pro 10.1 and I'm watching past episodes of Live Free or Die on my Tab Pro 10.1. Each episode is playing perfect. If my wife has issues with lag I hear about it within 5 seconds of it starting. LOL The rest of the devices are cell phones and a Chromecast (2nd Gen).
Our home setup is 200Mbps download/15Mbps upload. Have cable company supplied modem and 3 routers, Netgear R6250 AC1600 in the front of the house, an R6250 in the back of the house and a wirelessly connected WNR3500L v2 N300 for the Roku and Playstation 3.
Forgot to mention that my wifes Tab Pro 10.1 is unrooted. My tablet is rooted running Android KitKat 4.4.2. All 3 routers are using the latest DD-WRT Kong Mod instead of Netgear firmware.
I just noticed in your first post that WiFi shuts off. Do you have a WiFi manager running on your tablet? Rather than rely on the stock WiFi manager that disconnected occasionally I downloaded and use WiFi Manager written by Kostya Vasilyev located in the play store. I installed it on both tablet and phone along with my wife's tablet and phone. It keeps the connection alive, or at least tries to.
I hope I was able to help even a little bit. Good luck to you. PEACE

I've had this problem on many different wifis, and in all of them I've never had a problem with my phone or computer. So I don't see how the issue would be with the router

I'll try it out. What is the actual name of the program, I'll look for it on the play store

Wifi Manager
So I recently updated my phone to 5.9.023S_03131 official release. Rooted the phone, got TWRP and Xposed framework and all that. Now the issue I'm having is when in connected to any network.
Let me explain, for example I turn on the YouTube app, and the thumbnails are really slow at loading, like really slow (on my home network which is 300Mbit down, 40Mbit up, right next to the router). It feels like there is a huge delay, as if I have really high ping to the YouTube server, same with the twitch app, it takes a really long time for it to actually connect to a stream, but once it's connected it works fine. YouTube videos work fine once connected as well. This has started happening after I updated my phone. Any ideas?
Also one more issue I'm having is that the YouTube app is not giving me the option of watching videos in 1080p60fps, which I was able to before updating.
I'm fairly certain this is device software related, because neither my PC, or anyone else's phone on the network has the same issue.
So any ideas?
We have Firestick 4K hooked up to several TVs to use Netflix, HBO, Disney+, and some of those other movie apps, if you know what I mean.
We've been running them for years with zero issues, including IPTV during NFL season.
I thought our internet was acting up because of an issue that appeared about 3 weeks ago. I did all the usual, Cleared Caches, restart devices, hard reboot on devices, changed DNS, etc... Then I switched out our router (Verizon Fios 1 gig), issue still remained.
So the issue is very strange and I'm hoping someone can lead me to a solution.
Suddenly,
Some preview thumbnails will not load on Firestick home screen
A couple of Apps like Disney+ and HBO Max will not load(but Netflix works fine)
SmartTube Apk(no ads) will not load preview thumbnails or videos(but regular YouTube works fine)
My other Movie.TV apks will not load thumbnails or any streams
When I was using WiFi calling on my cell, I kept dropping calls
So we thought it might be a Fire device issue, maybe due to an update but....
My son and my wife both noticed around the same time that the same not loading Thumbnails and videos issues was happening on their Twitter app on their phone while using wi-fi. My son also noticed that a couple other apps like DoorDash wouldn't load either, but all work fine on mobile data.
Other than that internet functions as it should. Our Download and Upload speeds are fine. We can browse websites on our laptops fine. I even just bought tickets on a popular Ticketmaster on sale the other day without issue. My wife and son both work from home remotely, and neither of them have had any daily issues regarding their access for work.
A little more info, when we connect the Fire Devices to our unlimited mobile data via hot spot on our phone, all Firestick and video apps work as they should without issue.
I have been having the same issue. I also have Verizon internet and have also done every possible reset, update or change to the router, with no improvement. For us Paramount Plus, Amazon Music and BET+ are not working, but DirecTV Stream works perfectly. Up until a week or so ago all apps were functioning normally. I'm reaching out to Verizon today, but honestly don't think it has anything to do with the service because all other devices (and we have several) are working properly on the Wi-Fi. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
After some research, I found out the issue.
Verizon(my ISP) is blocking/throttling some streaming apps. We bought a trial for a VPN, used that, and everything worked fine. All issues were resolved.
Thanks for the update!
Just got off the phone with Verizon and they were finally able to fix the issue after I told the rep the Wi-Fi issue was only effected android (Google TV) and android adjacent devices (Amazon Fire TV). He immediately said it was an IPv6 issue, and proceeded to disable the feature. After rebooting the router, all of our devices worked as they had before the issue. He informed me that the feature can be disabled on your own if you log into your router's account via the internet. You can also call Verizon to have them do it.
