Why does Amazon Prime Instant Video hang?

This is because only the most important data needs to be stored temporarily. The rest is completed by the client, such as Amazon Prime Instant Video in this case.If this works smoothly, you can watch the movie. If you have Internet problems, then this process stalls and the stream hangs. In this case, you should check if there are not too many subscribers taking up your Internet or if there are Internet glitches, if any. There can also often be problems due to walls that are too thick or other interference factors, should you use WLAN.
