Using a wired digital box? Visit Freezing / Choppy image (wired) for help.

Note: You can determine if your digital box is wireless by looking for the Wi-Fi signal indicator on the front of the box

1. TV feed freezing or stopping while you are watching it, and are experiencing audio drop-outs to see if your issue is only on one channel. Chances are the problem will be resolved shortly
