Internet Connection
Type of Connectivity
Atmosphere TV offers streaming over both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections. This flexibility allows you to choose the best option according to your venue's infrastructure.
Avoid using public or guest WiFi and mobile hotspots with our streaming device, as they can be unreliable, slow, and may have limitations.
For optimal and stable streaming performance, we advise connecting our device directly to a router or network switch using an ethernet cable, or alternatively, linking it to a secure private WiFi network.
Recommended Speed
To avoid rebuffering and ensure a high quality viewing experience, we recommend a minimum download speed of 10 Mbps per device. This speed is crucial for delivering rich content smoothly and without interruption. Test your venue’s network speeds.
Data Management
Atmosphere TV devices cache content for Video on Demand (VOD) channels, utilizing about 5GB of data per channel change to make your favorites readily accessible.
Linear channels such as News and Sports provide real time updates and do not cache, typically consuming up to 60GB daily. If applicable, regularly monitor your data usage to avoid going over your data limits.
More detailed information about Data Consumption and Content Caching
For enhanced reliability, especially in high-interference areas, consider connecting your streaming device via an Ethernet cable instead of relying on Wi-Fi. This small step can greatly improve your streaming quality and consistency.

Connection Protocols
It's essential that your network allows TCP 443/8443 to the internet. This setup, which uses HTTPS, ensures a secure and encrypted connection for all data transmission.
