Optimizing Connections for U-NEXT
Streaming platforms like U-NEXT are contractually bound by network routing paths. Even if you hold an active membership, a highly anticipated match may experience buffering if your connection to the specific local network's delivery servers is suboptimal. To ensure the best connection on U-NEXT, we recommend using a Streaming Optimizer node to ensure the highest quality network route.
