AMAZON Fire Stick owners are being warned about common mistakes that can disrupt their streaming experience.
In a recent Reddit post, an Amazon Fire Stick user shared that his gadget was having connectivity issues.
They have noticed that the remote control has been slow since they bought it for the first time a few months ago.
In an attempt to combat the issue, another Reddit user suggested that users’ Bluetooth may be experiencing interference.
“There may be something in your house emitting and interfering with the Bluetooth signal, or the stick may be buggy or defective,” they said.
In fact, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections are often disrupted.
There are several reasons for this failure. Three potential problems are outlined below.
metal objects
It’s no surprise that heavy metal objects can interfere with your Wi-Fi service and, in turn, your gadgets.
This is because metals are generally difficult to penetrate materials.
Anything made of metal, such as doors, walls, and building infrastructure, can reduce the strength of your Wi-Fi or Bluetooth signal.

Therefore, you should avoid placing your Wi-Fi router near metal objects.
Other electronic equipment
Home appliances such as microwaves and televisions can also interfere with the service of smart gadgets.
Because these objects tend to emit their own radio waves that can disable your device.
To avoid interference from these objects, both your Wi-Fi router and Fire Stick should be placed away from them.
physical barrier
Large, bulky furniture and physical barriers (such as cabinets and closets) can weaken the signal on almost any internet-connected device.
The more furniture you have, and the larger and thicker the furniture, the more the signal will be disrupted.
If your router or Fire Stick is hidden behind furniture, move it to a more open space.
