Samsung Ubd-K8500
I have the player connected to a synology nas. Every now and then the film doesn't load or runs for 2-5 seconds, but it works on the mobile phone. Does the wifi fluctuate so much or does the player have problems?
I have connected this player with LAN and there is no problem streaming from the NAS (QNAP). I have now tested it with wifi and it also works. With Full HD videos it runs without problems, with 4K video I had a short dropout, but then there was no problem during playback (router is in the same room).
I think you are using a modern router that also provides the 5G network, which is the first choice for media streaming. The wifi adapter of the UBD-K8500 can handle it.
Nevertheless, you should try to connect the player via LAN because of the high data volumes or use powerline adapters as an option.
You probably have a 4K TV that also supports streaming - just try it out, then you won't need to take the diversions via the player.
