Hi! I understand you're experiencing intermittent WiFi connection issues with your XtreamTV app in your bedroom. To help you best, could you share a bit more detail? For example, is the connection dropping only on the device running XtreamTV, or are other devices in the bedroom also affected? And does this happen at particular times or randomly?

In the meantime, I’ll guide you through some steps that often help with this kind of problem on an Android device:

1. Check Signal Strength: Since the bedroom may be farther from your router, walls or furniture could be weakening the WiFi signal. Try moving closer to the router to see if the problem improves. If it does, the signal strength is likely the issue.

2. Restart Devices: Power off your Android device and your WiFi router/modem for about 30 seconds, then turn them back on. This often resets connections and can resolve intermittent issues.

3. Forget and Reconnect WiFi: On your Android device, go to WiFi settings, find your network, tap “Forget,” then reconnect by entering the password again.

4. Check for Interference: Other wireless devices, microwaves, or neighboring WiFi networks could interfere with your signal. If possible, switch your router to a less crowded WiFi channel using its admin settings.

5. Move the Router / WiFi Extender: If moving closer to the router helped, consider relocating the router closer to the bedroom or getting a WiFi extender/repeater to boost the signal in that area.

6. Update Your XtreamTV App and Device: Make sure your app and Android OS are fully updated, as these updates can fix bugs affecting connectivity.

If these don’t solve the problem, we can dig deeper into your router settings or consider other network diagnostics. Let me know how these steps go or if you notice any patterns with when the interruption happens!

Are you comfortable trying these first?
