If your internet connection is not fast enough, you may experience buffering when streaming fuboTV.
Normally, the fuboTV app detects the quality of the connection and adjusts the video quality automatically to match the available connection speed. Sometimes, though, it is necessary to manually select a lower video quality in order to avoid buffering due to a poor internet connection.
Please choose your device to see the steps to change the video quality on the fuboTV app.
