Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but I figured you guys might at least be able to point me in the right direction.

I bought an Amazon Fire Stick in 2019.

It's worked great until just this month. Now, whenever I watch anything on any streaming app it will need to pause and buffer the video every 10-15 minutes. When it buffers, it can take 1-2 minutes to get back to whatever I'm watching.

I thought maybe it was my ISP, but all my streaming stuff works fine on other devices (e.g., tablet, PC).

Does the Fire Stick have a cache I need to clear or something? Or do I just need to upgrade to the latest model?

Do a full factory reset. I've had the same problem and it's supposedly caused by a cache file not getting deleted properly.
