How bad is the buffering , I have had a few suppliers and everyone has buffered on live Tv. Some matches are worse than others and on the odd occasion I get a perfect match , but most times I get buffering , if it’s a pain I swap channels - sometimes this can mean flicking between a couple of channels as each one buffers. Don’t expect a perfect service.

You will get some buffering I wouldn't expect it every match but actually using a vpn can reduce buffering as it keeps your speeds pretty consistent
Watched 2 matchs no buffering until the very end. This was using another supplier. Watched the England game on uhd new suppliers trial played good then froze switched to HD played fine no buffering just very occaisional stutter for about 2 seconds. Have tried it with vpn on and off . Getting about 120mbs with vpn on wirless 300 vpn off. Tried it with firstick s lan adaptor also.
I realise now that there's no such thing as buffer or stutter free all the time iptv unless its a proper legit service. Some providers services are definatley better than others. I will keep testing the things you all suggested.
Thanks again

Re vpns.
Nord has been a pain. I used to get 150mbs. Then it dropped to a mear 40mbs. Tried all the settings .spent ages online with nord who couldn't sort it. Tried using proton free and was getting better speeds than nord. Tried nord yesterday got 150mbs today struggling to get 70mbs. Is there a better option than nord.as its so hit and miss. A mate has it and has the same issue.
Finally do i need a vpn for the iptv.
Do i need to stay anonymous whist using it.

50mb should be enough for live 4k. Using a VPN is a personal preference tbh.
I have been watching streaming live rugby and other sports on the free apps Playfy and AK47 sports and no issues with buffering.
I'm guessing you are watching the FIFA World Cup games? It could be that because it is popular at the moment there are too many subscribers trying to use your iptv service to watch the football streams at once and it doesn't have the capacity to cope.
I don't fully understand how this iptv works and I could be talking nonsense but it sounds plausible to me.
Why not watch them on the BBC Iplayer or the ITV player. They are covering all matches and they are free with no buffering.

Watched the football yesterday in 4k seemed to be fine.
Yes some servers are over subscribed so you do get issues
If you are not in the UK you can use your vpn to make bbc/itv think you are. 😉
Just ignore the regular reminders from the BBC presenters to scan the on screen qr code to buy a tv licence!
Don't bother mate just watch everything through sub got a backup just in case they are doing a bit of maintance
I thought iplayer was blocked if you tried watching it from non uk locations.
