Im using AppleTV and its working pretty well. It will buffer once in a while but thats it. Most of the time it does it at the start but thats it.

Im assuming/hoping for WWE fixing all these glitches and starts updating content.

WWE Network Problems Continue Amid Overwhelming Demand

WWE Network Problems Continue Amid Overwhelming Demand

WWE Network streaming issues are continuing to bother users, with on demand content being the main problem. The live stream aspect of the service has been running smoothly but major faults are plaguing demand content leading to stalling and outright failure to play.

WhatCulture reader Travis is typical of the reports of Network failures, “I am another one who is experiencing severe buffering, trying to view any of the PPV events is just not happening right now.

“My only concern is how the WWE will handle the high traffic they will most likely experience on the night of Wrestlemania XXX. That will be the deal breaker for me if I go to watch it on the network only to have it ruined by buffering and connection issues.”

The loading error has been widespread, with video game consoles and laptops in particular having problems for some reason. Another controversy is also proving to be the apparent ease you can access the Network with from outside America. WhatCulture reader Tobi reports that he is watching from Denmark and there is a very simple method being circulated in the UK to access the service.

The most immediate problem is obviously the widespread failure of on-demand content to load. The problem isn’t anything to do with WWE, so the company remains calm. It is in fact the problem of MLB Advanced Media who manage the service on behalf of WWE. They are clearly a bit overwhelmed and they told Deadspin yesterday that the Network demand for sign-ups “exceeded anything we have seen in 14 years of doing e-commerce.”

So in some ways the Network verdict after 24 hours is both good and bad. It’s great that fans have signed up in such huge numbers that MLAB have been blown away, but it’s pretty bad that they weren’t prepared for this. The loading issues need correcting as soon as possible or subscribers will be flocking away just as quickly as they signed up. If any of these issues occur in Wrestlemania 30 then WWE will be inundated with criticism. MLAB need to ensure they quickly get a grip of the potential problems.

A buddy of mine has already predicted this problem and said hes just gonna drop the $70 for mania on cable to avoid even the slightest hiccup.

Im thinking about hitting a bar myself.


For some reason its not available on XB1
and Microsoft issued a statement about the problems with the 360 basically saying "we're working on it"
I know folks with the 360 that still havent seen a blip of this channel.

You have to enter your CC info?? Im cool off that, I have a feeling they're going to try and sneak a charge in
maybe that happens with brazers brah, but its no different than netflix, or hulu, or itunes or even amazon.com.

And for the sake of it, if you do get double/triple/hidden charge, thats why you have your monthly statement.

ps3 working like a champ tho. the search function needs to be fixed as it buffers like crazy.
but playing a ppv straight thru is no problemo. if they add primetime wrestling and all the wcw nitros i wont be seen for weeks.
all the old school wwf superstars too.
they also said to get wwe network asap and not the day of wrestlemania. i already know the shit is going to crash tho lol first row sports will be the backup plan.
