Recently got a Samsung 50 inch smart TV. However while watching Netflix. It crashes just after around 45 minutes of viewing. I've tried everything. Uninstalled app. Logged out. Reset TV. It keeps crashing. Has anyone else had this issue?

There is no error message

After around 45 mins of watching Netflix. The screen freezes and then the sound stutters. Eventually app crashes and restarts, but it's laggy and you cannot navigate anything

Kindly reset the TV to factory then reboot the router connection used, test if the issue persists.

 

If the issue still persisting please also try connecting it to a smartphone Hotspot then share if nothing has changed.
