Hello!
About a week ago i bought the Samsung Smart TV 32H5500. TV is connected to a wireless router (Asus RT-AC68) on the 5GHz frequency. When I tried to watch a movie over the WIFI network from a WD external hard drive (NTFS, 1TB) connected to the USB 3.0 port of the router the movie was played with interruptin (stopped and restarted at different time intervals). On my other Samsung Smart TV (40ES7000 2012 model) connected to the same router and frequency i'm not having this problem at all. If i watched the movie on my Samsung Smartphone (Galaxy S5) from the same room with the TV i had no problem. Any suggestions?

Have you tried to connect TV to network using LAN cable to check if this is really wifi problem ? Or copy movie to any USB stick and check plugging directly to the TV ?
This problem is experienced for all movies or only those with high bitrates ?
And the last question - streaming is by DLNA right ?

Hi.
1. I haven't tried yet because all other devices that are connected wireless to the router can play movies without any problem. I will try tonight when i get home and see what happens.
2. This problem is experienced with all movies that i've tested (generally mp4 movies). What do you mean by high bitrates (over how much)?
3. Streaming is by DLNA.
Thank You.

Hi
Sorry for the late reply, but recently I have also bought UE32H5500 and I am not observing the problem you had described.

My TV is also connected by wifi and dlna playback of full hd 60 fps gopro black recordings (bitrates >35Mbps) is excellent.

@cipri, when playing videos from your router are you able to pause, fwd, rwd?
