Here goes......
Internet connection with FTTP. 100Mbps
LG smart TV worked ok with old 80Mbps BT contract (no TV buffering).
Now that Vodafone BB is working well, the connection speed measured on the TV is up to 20Mbps and normally around 8Mbps (TV buffers).
I get the same results when:
Connected by ethernet cable to the Vodafone router.
Connected by ethernet cable from Tp link TL-WR940N access point.
Connected by wireless from the above access point (Wireless speed next to the TV with my phone measures 95Mbps)
To me it looks like there's setting in the Vodafone router that needs fixing to get the TV to shake hands properly with the router.
Any ideas?
Cheers

I've spent hours troubleshooting this same issue after switching to Vodafone BB several months ago and having intermittent WiFi drops on my LG smart TV every 5 minutes whilst using apps such as iPlayer, prime video etc.
So pleased I stumbled across this article earlier today. Changing to Google's DNS servers 8.8.8.8 seems to have resolved this issue for me.
