• 🔄 Dual-band operation: support 5 GHz (less loaded, more stable for video). If the router only 2.4 GHz, be prepared for occasional freezes.
• 📦 Internet speed: minimum 25 Mbps for SD quality, 50+ Mbps for Full HD. You can check it on the website. Speedtest.
• 🔗 Number of connected devices: If 10+ gadgets are connected to the router simultaneously, the TV may not have enough bandwidth.
