Hi RonnieR,
Thank you for sharing your feedback about the Fire TV Stick 4K Max. I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble getting it set up—that's frustrating when you're ready to start streaming and the device won't load properly, even with strong Wi-Fi nearby.
Setup issues can happen for several reasons, but here are some troubleshooting steps that should help get your Fire TV Stick up and running:
Check the power source: Make sure you're using the power adapter that came with the Fire TV Stick plugged into a wall outlet (not your TV's USB port), as TV USB ports often don't provide enough power Verify HDMI connection: Ensure the Fire TV Stick is firmly inserted into your TV's HDMI port. If it's hard to reach, use the included HDMI extender cable Select the correct HDMI input: Use your TV remote to switch to the correct HDMI input where the Fire TV Stick is connected Restart the setup: Unplug the Fire TV Stick from power for 30 seconds, then plug it back in and wait a few minutes for it to boot up Wi-Fi connection: When the setup screen appears, make sure you're selecting the correct Wi-Fi network and entering the password accurately (passwords are case-sensitive) Move closer to router: Even though your internet device is nearby, try moving the Fire TV Stick closer to your router during initial setup
If these steps don't resolve the issue and the device still won't load, please contact our support team at 1-888-280-4331 or through the Amazon app. They can walk you through the setup process step-by-step or arrange a replacement if there's a hardware issue.
Your feedback about the setup difficulty is valuable and helps us identify where additional support or clearer instructions are needed.

I love this streaming device. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max is noticeably fast, apps load quickly, streaming is smooth, and navigation feels responsive with no lag. Setup was easy, and Wi-Fi performance has been solid.
The picture quality looks great in 4K, and the Ambient Experience is a nice bonus when the TV isn’t actively in use. It’s been reliable, easy to use, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.
10/10 — highly recommend if you want a fast, no-frustration streaming experience.

Buying this Fire TV Stick 4K Max at Best Buy was a breeze! The sales person was incredibly helpful in explaining the difference between our Fire Stick options- turns out we had been buying the wrong one for our needs. The 4K Max works great and offers more storage allowing for more apps without buffering or slowing our streaming! Very happy with our purchase,

Hello NOLA and thank you for providing feedback on your experience with your Fire Stick. I am terribly sorry for the buffering issue you are experiencing with your device. One recommendation I would have is to see if you have any pending updates that are slowing down or preventing your device from functioning to the best of its ability. You can check this by going to Settings>Device & Software>About>Check for Updates. Another thing you can test is your network speed to see if you are running fast enough for the best experience. This can be affected by a number of things but you can check this by going to Settings>Network>(Your Wi-Fi network name)>Run Speed Test. If there is an issue, there are additional troubleshooting tips that will come up on screen for you. If you still are having issues, I would recommend contacting Amazon Customer Support at 888.280.4331 to troubleshoot further and see what options are available to you. Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback and I do hope this helps resolve your buffering problem so you can enjoy your device. Have a terrific day!

The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is an excellent streaming device. Setup was quick and easy, and the performance is noticeably fast—apps load quickly, streaming is smooth, and navigation is very responsive.
The picture quality is fantastic with sharp 4K visuals and vibrant colors, and the audio support makes movies and shows sound great. I also love the Alexa voice remote—it makes searching for content and controlling playback incredibly convenient.
Overall, it’s a huge upgrade from older streaming devices and offers great value for the price. If you want fast performance, great picture quality, and an easy-to-use interface, the Fire TV Stick 4K Max is a great choice. Highly recommend.

I am genuinely impressed with the Fire TV Stick 4K Max. The setup was quick and simple — I literally had it up and running in minutes. The streaming quality is excellent, with sharp picture and vibrant colors, and it handles 4K content with absolutely no lag or buffering. The Wi-Fi 6E makes a noticeable difference compared to older models.
The user interface is smooth and intuitive, and I love how the Ambient Experience turns the TV into a beautiful display when not in use. The included remote is responsive and easy to use, and voice control works flawlessly. We’ve ditched cable completely, and between live TV and apps, we don’t miss it at all.
If you’re looking for faster performance, better streaming quality, and an overall upgraded experience, this is the best Fire Stick yet. Highly recommend!

I've never used a Fire Stick before. I needed a Fire Stick because I have an old smart TV. On this older Smart TV it doesn't allow or I could not figure out how to add streaming apps that weren't already loaded.
The Fire stick was easy to set up; it came with everything needed for a successful setup.
I am very happy with the cost effective purchase. No need to buy another 55" TV.
