Feb 15, 2013 3:35 PMby Graeme Fudge,Ok specific question. My Apple TV downloaded a film when we first got it in five minutes. Since then, despite a 8mps download speed it takes hours to download. The most recent example we started to download last Saturday and tonight it is still showing 16 hours to download. How do I increase the download speed?

Feb 15, 2013 3:42 PMby Graeme Fudge,Tried all that with no resolution. All other Internet products work well, fast access and quick download, including other film downloads and BBC I player. The only product that has a download problem is Apple TV. Having spent £100 on the product I would expect better performance. Is there any way of improving its performance.

Feb 15, 2013 3:55 PMby Graeme Fudge,All other devices work well in the house, iPad streams videos and I-player well but Apple TV is just awful. Tried a variety of combinations over the last year and none seem to resolve it. If all Internet products in the house were slow I would accept it is the router or broadband but that does not seem to be the problem, it seems to be specific to Apple TV. Almost as if downloads from iTunes were slow, and looking through the forums I am not alone. Is there some fix or update that is needed to increase the speed?

1. Navigate to Settings >> General >> Network and select Configure TCP/IP.
2. Select “Manually” next to Configure IP.
3. Dont change the IP address or the Subnet Mask and Router Address. Just click "Done".
4. Set the DNS Address screen with the following: 008.008.008.008 and click “Done.”
You should now be able to stream more smoothly on your Apple TV.
