Perfect here. Your internet sucks. Ninety percent of the time people complain about peacock. Is internet related.

Mine goes terribly grainy every so often. Might be my internet connection but peacock seems to be the only app that does it on my tv.

Mine cut out right after the last 450 and blanked out.  When I got back to it it said coverage was over.  WTF!!! I wanted to hear the post race interviews and see results.  Now it’s back on showing the 2nd 250 race.  Arrrrrrrgh!

Because we gave them all the money to "treat" us instead of heal us.... Thats the main reason we see this trash.

If they put half of the add budget into healing patients instead of hiring millionaire foozeball players to brainwash the minions we wouldnt need them in 20 years.... oh wait. nevermind.

Mine has really been pissing me off on Xbox,  which is my main device. Buffering, kicking me back to the menue screen. Switched to laptop and flawless.

When you’re having viewing issues, are you using the built in app on your smart tv? Those baked in apps are garbage. Get a roku, fire stick, or Apple TV box. I’ve been watching SX and MX on Apple TV since they made the move a few years ago with no issues. At one time we were on 100mb internet service, now on gig speed. I watch on my iPhone on cell data sometimes with no issues still on Verizon LTE.

Also look at your internet details, not just download speeds, but your upload speeds. Download speeds don’t mean much if your upload speeds are drastically lower. I’m on gig+ down and 100mb up. Are you using a rented modem from your ISP? If so, return it and go buy your own modem. Those ISP provided modems are trash.

Look at how many devices are connected to your network while you’re watching the race. Turn off wifi in your smart tv. Those drag down network speeds with all of the pre-installed apps and all of the background tasks going on that are hidden behind the scenes. Do you have a guest network enabled, disable it if so. 99.9% of the issues stem from you the user and not Peacock. My 4K Apple TV box streaming quality is 100% each and every race.
