It will work but it will also buffer.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm afraid that you're correct. With such a low speed connection, you'll probably see a lot of buffering, specially if you're playing high definition programming. If you chose standard definition programs, buffering shouldn't be as bad.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I don't know if you are referring to wireless mobile data of 4G LTE or 5.0 GHz as your wireless Wi-Fi high speed internet connection. It supports both bands of a 802.11b/g/AC (2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz frequencies) Wi-Fi connections of almost any household wireless router-- AC is highly recommended. It would probably buffer a lot if you do mean 4G LTE but it will depend on signal quality and the provider's ability to maintain that type of streaming bandwidth but most 3 to 10 Mbps download on average of a DSL or cable TV broadband (high speed) internet service will be sufficient to avoid much buffering unless you force the highest HD quality 1080p. Allow it to auto detect the speed and match the streaming content quality.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it will work on 5g network.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Depends on the actual speed of your internet. But I have DSL and have no problems streaming with the firestick.
