    Default Slow navigating and lots of buffering

    G'day..

    I have FibreOP internet at home with a 30/30mbps service. I do the install for FibreOP and my line is perfect, reading, tests, etc. Everything that i stream buffers a lot...i get maybe 3-5mins and buffers. It only seems to happen with the boxee box. I'm currently hardwired with cat6 data drop. Any suggestions? I do believe my boxee box is update with the latest version.(buffering has been going on from day one).

    Also, I find moving around from menu to menu, extremely slow.

    One more thing...since I updated to the newest version...at the top of my screen i have a line of info "FreeMem xxxxxxxxkb, fp xxx, cpu, loader, etc.

    Any help would be great! thanks

    Can you post a few videos / sites as examples?

    Have you ever done a factory reset?

    For some reason, your log level has been set to 'debug'. Go to Settings>>System>>Advance and set it to NONE and see if that fixes it.
