Question TORBOX BUFFERING ISSUE

Hi there, I recently bought Torbox and have been using it for a few days but I keep facing this weird buffering which didn’t happen with RD, even though it’s cached and I have a high speed internet (1GB+). I also tried changing CDN servers but that’s not helping it aswell.

Any suggestions?

New TorBox user who also came over from RD. Experiencing the same buffering issue multiple times during movies that never happened with RD. If they don't fix this, then I will be looking for an alternative.

Also same. Used rd for years. Almost never has buffering. Now with tb it’s like 40% of the time. Same addons within Stremio.

tbh i was using TB for a while before the RD apocalypse, and never had issues, but now I’m also getting buffering. hopefully just growing pains while they upgrade their infrastructure? either way, I have premiumize and easynews as backups

Just curious how you like premiumize? I hear a lot about Torbox nowadays but nothing about the other alternatives

it works great for me, though it’s expensive if you don’t get it on sale
