If you’re greeted with a blank screen when logging into your account, don’t worry — you’re not alone. This is a common issue, and in this guide, we’ll cover the most likely reasons behind the blank screen and share simple, effective fixes to help you get back to streaming smoothly.

Make sure to read the whole post and apply these fixes to check out whether they work for you or not.

Reason 1: Having an Old IPTV App:

The first and the most common reason is having the old version of the IPTV app, when your app is loaded then it gets buggy and doesn’t work normally like it usually does.

Fix No. 1:

To fix this problem you have to make sure that the app is updated with the latest version,

Alternatively, you can use the IPTV smarters Pro app or get the TiviMate.

Reason 2: Hardware Malfunction:

If your device is broken or is malfunctioned this is also the reason why it is not loading the app properly and having issues when loading the content on the app.

Fix No. 2:

To check whether it is not your device please install the app on your Mobile or a different device. Then login with the same credentials and see if the blank screen still appears.

Reason 3: Check if the issue persists in other Content:

Sometimes this happens with the specific content instead of all the content that we offer.

Fix No 3:

Go back to the Home Screen and then check out other streaming Channels, Movies, or TV Series and see if the issue still exists there.

However, if other content is working fine but it’s happening with a specific category/channel then kindly contact us by WhatsApp or by email.

Reason 4: Uninstall & Reinstall the app:

When continuously using the app it collects the thumbnails, titles, and other stuff in the form of caches which is also the reason behind the blank screen.

Fix No 4:

To fix this problem, you just need to Uninstall the application and then Re-install it, now you can use the same login details are then you will probably see the app is working better.

We have been receiving many emails and messages regarding the service not working, invalid details, playback errors, and many other questions like these.

However, while communicating with the customers, we noticed that the issue they are getting is not from our end but from their Internet Service Provider (ISP) blocking their connection instead.

Therefore, before sending an email or message, check out this list of the ISPs that block IPTV services and learn how to bypass this security.

List of ISPs Blocking IPTV Service

Below is the list of the well-known Internet Service providers that block various IPTV services, including us:

• Rogers NB & NL ON
• BT Internet
• SHAW Internet
• Telus Internet
• GLO FOBER
• Most UK ISPs

• Virgin Media
• AT&T
• TalkTalk
• Sky Broadband
• Shaw internet
• Spectrum

Instead of this, we have noted that some Router is blocking IPTVs TV; here are a few known routers:

• NetGear

Bypass Security on ISPs to Stream IPTV Service

Now that we know which Internet Service Providers block IPTV services, I am sure you probably understand why you are getting invalid details, playback, or your service stopped working altogether.

Thankfully, a few of these ISPs allow users whether they want to turn on that security or not. If you are lucky and your ISP provides that option, you need to turn it off, and you are good to go.

However, if your internet provider is not listed here, you must purchase ExpressVPN, NordVPN, or IPVanish, a few recommended and compatible VPNs that work with our service.

Bypass TalkTalk Security:

For TalkTalk providers, the security is called HomeSafe we need to disable it by following these steps:

• Log into My Account.
• Select My Services from the menu bar.
• Select View HomeSafe settings.
•  It will show what is currently turned on/off.
• Choose your areas to Switch Off next to any of the three options.
• For Kids Safe, you’ll see a prompt asking if you’re sure you want to switch it off, just hit Turn KidSafe Off.

BT Security Bypass:

BT was working fine back then, but for the past few weeks, they have been messing with the Internet providers; luckily, you can stop that from happening by just turning off their security:

• Open your Web Browser and go to http://btbusinesshub.home to open the Hub Manager.
• Click on the Advanced Settings tab.
• You will be asked to enter your Admin Password.
• Click on Wireless.
• Change your Security setting.
• Click WEP (64/40 bits).
• Set a wireless key for the network.
• Click Apply.
• Click Yes.

Restart your router and check if this resolves the issue!

Sky Broadband Bypass Security:

You will have to disable Sky Shield,

• Go to the main Sky Broadband Shield website.
• Enter your Sky ID username and password.
• Scroll down the page until you see the Switch-Off button.
• Select ‘Disable Shield’.
• Click ‘Save settings.’

Just turn off your device and router, and then relaunch the IPTV app to start streaming.

Virgin Media Security Bypass:

Virgin Media has also made a few changes to their service, affecting the IPTV service. Therefore check out these simple steps to turn the Security Off:

• Browse the Virgin Media Website on your Browser and Sign in/Sign up there.
• Hover to My Apps from the Menu and choose WebSafe.
• Turn the Child Safe toggle Off.
• Hit Apply from below.

These simple steps can be followed to Turn Off Child Safe that affects IPTV services.

Bypass Security on Xfinity:

Just follow these simple steps to disable Security on Xfinity:

• Tap on the Person icon ( ) in the top-left corner of the Overview screen.
• Scroll down to More Resources.
• Tap xFi Advanced Security.
• Tap Turn Off.
• Toggle the setting off.

Bypass Security on AT&T:

Like Virgin Media, AT&T has made a few changes to their service, and now most customers are getting invalid login details issues.

Therefore follow these simple steps to Disable Security on AT&T:

• Download AT&T on your iPhone/Android.
• Log in with your Email & Password.
• Go to App Settings.
• Select App Preferences.
• Toggle Enable Security Off.

Note: If you have an updated app, it might show Pause AT&T Security instead; simply Pause it to avoid the issue.

However, if Enable Security or Pause Security is not available on your device, then check these steps:

• First, open http://192.168.1.254/ into your Mobile/PC browser while connected to AT&T internet.
• Log in with your username/password (written on the sticker on the back of the router).
• Click on the Firewall.
• Then choose Security Options.
• Now click Disable from there.

These are the few solutions that can be followed to disable security on AT&T, which is quite complicated.

Disable Router Security

Since we have already disabled the Security offered by the well-known Internet Provider. Now let’s talk about the security of Routers that block the service and how you can block it.

Disable NETGEAR Armor:

Follow these steps to disable NetGear Armor and stream without issue:

• Connect your mobile device to your Nighthawk or Orbi router’s WiFi network.
• Launch the Nighthawk or Orbi app.
• The Dashboard displays.
• In the top-left corner, tap the Home or Cloud icon.

Note: The icon varies depending on your router’s settings.

• Tap SETTINGS > Security.
• If prompted, enter your NETGEAR account credentials and tap NETGEAR SIGN IN.
• On the NETGEAR Armor page, tap the Enable NETGEAR Armor slider to turn NETGEAR Armor Off.

Now you have to restart your device and then launch the IPTV application and check if the issue is resolved or not.

Use the VPN

If your service is still being interrupted even after you have blocked the security and other things, then the only thing that you can do to bypass this security is through the VPN,

Here are the Recommended VPNs:

• NordVPN
• ExpressVPN
• IPVanish

Here are the Recommended Servers:

• India
• Australia
• Ireland
• Canada
• Netherlands

Note: If these servers won’t work then you can choose other servers too.

Wrap Up

These are the simple and easiest ways to disable Security on most Internet Providers and fix all the well-known issues on your IPTV subscription.

However, even after disabling the security, if you are still having issues then please don’t forget to open a ticket or email us.

Please keep in mind to provide us with the following details so that our team can assist properly:

1. Name of the device you are using.
2. Screenshot while putting in the credentials.
3. Name of the app you have.
4. Who is your Internet Provider?
5. Are you trying to use it on more than 1 device?
6. Your IP address: 

To know the public IP, the subscriber must connect to the address: http://monip.org. The IP we are interested in looks like 81.2XX.1XX.XXX, for example, the local IP often starts with 192.168.xxx.xxx (it is of no use to us).

– Regarding IPv4/IPv6

You must use the IPv4 connection protocol (instead of IPv6), if you find an IP that looks like ‘2001:0db8:0000:85a3:0000:0000:ac1f:8001’ it means that the subscriber is in IPv6 and that’s why his subscription is not working. A few searches on Google will help you easily find where the parameters of the device and/or the subscriber’s modem are located to switch from IPv6 to IPv4.

The subscriber must contact his ISP (internet provider) if the change from IPv6 to IPv4 is not possible from his modem.

Contact us by providing us with the following information by WhatsApp.

If you are using your service but it suddenly stuck at the loading screen, then there are a few factors and fixes that you need to check out to fix this issue completely,

Here are a few reasons which cause your app to get stuck in the loading screen:

Reason 1: Your Device is saturated:

Your device might be running low on Storage or doesn’t have enough Ram to manage the IPTV application, the first thing to do is to restart your device by removing the power cable for 3 minutes and try again

Reason 2: Having Too Many Channels:

Too many channels are probably the other reason why the app gets stuck in loading your TV and is unable to load the channels that we offer.

Therefore you have to provide our team with the names of the Countries that you watch and then they will remove the remaining channels to make the app load faster.

Provide by WhatsApp message or by Email, the names of countries you want to keep, and then our team will remove the remaining channels.

Reason 3: Your IPTV Subscription is expired:

This is one of the most common reasons why the apps keep loading and you are not able to sign in. Therefore please check the date we sent the login details to you and see if your subscription is expired or not.

If it is expired then simply contact us on WhatsApp or email us.

Reason 4: Your ISP is Blocking IPTV:

This is another reason why the app gets stuck in the loading screen your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is blocking you or limiting the bandwidth to stream IPTV stream.

The only fix for that is to use the VPN to avoid this from happening, you can just go ahead and purchase ExpressVPN, NordVPN, IPVanish, or any other VPN of your choice.

Once the VPN is installed then launch the VPN and connect to the Netherlands, Australia, Pakistan, Canada, India, Ireland, or any nearby server to get fast speed.

After connecting it just go back to the IPTV app and launch it again to see whether this issue is fixed or not.

If you are facing buffering while streaming or the channels keep freezing then here is the complete troubleshooting regarding buffering and freezing that you need to follow.

Here I will be explaining the causes and will be providing the solutions as well. This way whenever you face the same problem again you can easily understand why it is happening and can resolve the problem as soon as possible.

Just make sure to read this troubleshooting at the end,

Fix Buffering & Freezing on Sync IPTV

Below are the common factors why a user gets buffering or freezing while using our service:

Reason 1: Streaming on more than allowed Connections:

One of the major mistakes that most customers make is that they log in and use their account on more than the allowed connections. For instance, if a customer purchases a plan and doesn’t pay for the Add-on accounts, then they are allowed to use it on a single device only!

When you do that you will probably get buffering, freezing, or even playback errors sometimes.

Fix No. 1:

First, you have to log out and uninstall the app from all the devices that you are logged in to, and after that just install the IPTV app on the main device that you want to use, and then you will notice no buffering or freezing at all.

However, if you have more than one device at Home and you want to use all these devices, then simply purchase an Add-on account that allows you to stream on multiple devices simultaneously.

We allow up to 3 accounts with a discount and to learn more about the pricing of Addon accounts kindly Contact us.

Reason 2: Application Caches:

If you are using IPTV Smarters or any other IPTV app for too long, then the app will start creating cache files on your device. These caches include Thumbnails for Movies/Series/Channels, Links, and several other things.

The caches are good at some point because they help the content to load faster as they are already downloaded into your system. But things get worse when you are running low on storage or don’t stream the same Channels/TV Shows or Movies.

Therefore, you have to clear the caches each time you launch the app and it only takes 5 seconds, that’s all.

Fix No. 2:

Here are the steps for some devices that you can follow to clear caches:

Android Based TVs/Device:

Go to Settings > Applications > IPTV Smarters (or any other app you have installed) > Hit Clear Caches.

Firestick/FireTV Cube:

Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications > IPTV Smarters (or any other app you have installed)  > Hit Clear Caches.

Samsung or LG Smart TVs:

There is no option to Clear Caches on Samsung/LG TVs that’s why all you have to do is Restart your device by removing the power cable and it will remove Caches for Applications.

Reason 3: Running Low on Storage:

Another major reason why you are getting buffering & freezing issues is that your device might be running low on Storage or doesn’t have enough RAM to manage the IPTV application.

Fix No 3:

First of all, restart your device by removing the power cable for 3 minutes and try again.

If it doesn’t work, you have to uninstall the apps that are not being used or else delete some downloaded files from File Manager to free up some storage.

To uninstall the app on Android-based TVs follow these instructions:

Go to Settings > Applications > Find the app that is not used and Select it > hit Uninstall option > hit Confirm to Uninstall it.

Instructions for Firestick/FireTV Cube:

First of all, Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications > From here Choose the App that you no longer use > then hit Uninstall option > When prompted just hit Uninstall again.

For Samsung:

Press the Home button to open up the Home screen menu > Navigate to Apps > then select the Settings icon in the top right corner > Select the App you want to Delete > then select Delete and select Delete again to confirm.

For LG Smart TVs:

Press the Home button > Select the Pencil icon to the right of the apps > Use the Left Arrow and Go to an App you want to Delete and press OK > Use the Up Arrow to go to the X at the top of the app. Press OK. Select Yes to remove the app.

Reason 4: The Internet Provider is Throttling your connection:

This is one of the common issues that cause buffering, it is because most Internet Providers don’t want customers to stream IPTV service, or when they notice the customer is using too much bandwidth they just limit their internet speed.

Fix No 4:

The solution for this issue is quite simple, all you need to do is connect to a VPN and then you can avoid throttling also it can bypass the restrictions on IPTV service and it will improve your watching experience while keeping you secure.

Here are the Recommended VPNs:

• NordVPN.
• ExpressVPN
• IPVanish

Here are the Recommended Servers:

• India
• Australia
• Ireland
• Canada
• Netherlands

Note: If these servers won’t work then you can choose other servers too.

Reason 5: The device is Outdated:

Having an outdated device could cause the buffering issue as well, it is because when the device is not updated, there are chances that it might get vulnerable or get bugs and so on.

Fix No 5:

Make sure to update the device with the latest version available. With the new version, you will get a lot of improvements regarding software/hardware, and your device will perform better.

To check if you are running the latest version or not, please follow these instructions on your devices:

For Google TVs:

Press the Quick Settings> Select the Settings icon > then choose  System → About → System software update.

Note: If your remote control has a HELP button, you can also display the System software update screen by pressing the HELP button and selecting Top Support Solutions.

Other Android TV Models:

Press the Help button (if available), otherwise, press the Home button, and then select Help.

Note: If your TV has Android 9 or Android 8.0 operating system (OS), select the Apps icon, then select Help.

Now select Status & Diagnostics > select System software update.

For Firestick/FireTV Cube:

Go to Settings on your Fire TV > Select My Fire TV > About > Hit Check for System Update.

For LG Smart TV:

Go to Settings > All Settings > Support > Select Software Update > then Check for Updates, and if an update is available, Download and Install.

For Samsung Smart TV:

Open Settings > then Select Support > Software Update > select Update Now.

If there is any update available, just download it and then restart your device.

Reason 6: Having Too Many Channels:

I know most people will be complaining about this, but having too many channels is also the reason why your service is buffering a lot. It is because some of the customers might have a low-end device that is unable to manage all the channels we offer.

Therefore the wise solution will be to remove unwanted channels instead of keeping all 23,000+ channels since no one ever watches all these programs on their TVs.

Fix No 6:

To get the unwanted channels removed, you don’t have to follow any steps, it is because these channels can be removed from our end only.

To request the removal of unwanted channels please contact us via WhatsApp or by email. Please make sure to provide your username along with the list of countries that you watch like the USA, UK, Canada, Pakistan, etc.

Reason 7: Current Server/Portal URL is Busy:

When too many customers use the same portal URL while streaming their favorite content then the servers get loaded and you might end up getting buffering or freezing.

Fix No 7:

In this case, you need to contact us via WhatsApp or by email to share with you all the URLs that you need to try on your side.

Reason 8: Facing Buffering/Freezing on Specific Channels/Movies/Series (Season, Episode).

Just in case you are facing the issue with any specific channels Movies, or Series (like Episodes or Seasons). Then this issue can be resolved by our team and of course, you don’t have to do anything from your end.

Fix No 8:

Whether you are getting buffering with a specific channel, movie, or Web Series then all you have to do is open a ticket and provide us with the Full Name of the Movies or channels.

And if it is happening with a specific TV Series then make sure to mention the Season & Episode number as it will make our job easy to find that specific content and fix it.

Please feel free to contact us via WhatsApp or by email.

Playback is the most common issue that many customers face, therefore, there are several fixes that we can try to prevent it from happening.

Below are a few common reasons and the fixes to avoid playback errors on Live Player.

Reason 1: Using the Service on more than the Allowed Devices:

One common mistake customers make is that they use the service on more devices than they allow. Therefore, if you are allowed to use one device, then avoid using it on two devices.

If you have more than 1 device at home, you can always purchase the Add-on accounts to get support for streaming multiple devices simultaneously.

Reason 2: Playback on Specific Channels:

If you get the playback error while streaming and you are using only one device, make sure to check other channels to verify if the playback occurs with that channel or with all of them.

If you are getting playback on a single or two channels, then you can report it to our team.

Reason 3: ISP Blocking the Connection:

It is also a common reason for playback errors: Most Internet Providers block access to IPTV, which is why you face this issue.

The only fix to avoid this issue is to use a VPN (a premium one), just download one of the below VPNs,

• NordVPN
• Express VPN
• IPVanish

Or any other of your choice, and connect to a different server to see if that works.

If you need any assistance, pleasecontactt us

We will be talking about troubleshooting and what to do if a specific channel stops working. Many customers have reported that their service is not working, but after chatting with them, we found that most issues relate to a channel not working rather than the entire IPTV service being down. This guide will help you identify the cause and fix common problems so you can get back to streaming quickly.

Therefore, follow these simple fixes that will help you understand whether this issue is with all the channels or with the whole subscription and learn how to fix it quickly.

Fix 1, Clear Data

The first thing that you need to do when the channel suddenly stops working is to clear the app data completely and login back with the same credentials.

Fix 2: Use a VPN

If even after clearing the data that channel is not working then please use a VPN to see whether it works or not. To check the channel you can use any free VPN like Windscribe or any other available on the App Store.

Fix 3: Report to Us

Now, even after trying both above solutions the channel is still not working then here is how you can report the channel to use:
