The higher the resolution and bitrate, the more stable bandwidth should be available per device.
In brief
How much internet speed does my IPTV setup need?
As a conservative planning baseline, allow around 8 Mbps per HD device, 15 Mbps per Full HD device and 25 Mbps per 4K device. Add all devices used at the same time and include an additional 20 to 30 per cent headroom.
HD: approx. 8 Mbps per device
Full HD: approx. 15 Mbps per device
4K: approx. 25 Mbps per device
IPTV Speed Check
Is your internet connection fast enough for smooth IPTV without buffering?
Enter your connection, picture quality and number of devices. The calculator creates a conservative planning value and shows where possible bottlenecks may lie.

Example analysis
100 Mbps · 2 devices · Full HD
With stable 5 GHz Wi-Fi, this example has a good amount of headroom.

≈ 41Mbps planning value
How it is calculated
Conservative planning values instead of false guarantees
The calculator uses quality guidelines, accounts for multiple simultaneous devices and adds headroom for protocol overhead, Wi-Fi and connection fluctuations.
Simultaneous use
Multiple streams share the same internet connection. The planning value therefore increases with every active device.
Headroom
The advertised plan speed is not always the speed continuously available at the device. Headroom helps absorb fluctuations.
