well, it wasn't so much that, but I just couldn't be bothered studying 
it and learning anything I needed to. I just 'switched off'. I can 
access my streaming services via my Fetch box, the internet via a PC and 
an android box, all connected to the TV/AV setup, so I don't need to use 
the smart TV features.

but you rubbished the idea that it was a modem/ISP problem when I 
suggested it
