As the title says. this problem is really annoying, And when it's stopped, there doesn't seem to be any buffering. It just pauses right there. How frustrating is it to view a movie with constant interuption? Sometimes if you wait for 20 minutes, if you're lucky, the playback will assume for maybe another 5 minutes, then stops again. I remeber when instant viewing was frist introduced, I didn't have this problem...

Why does Netflix even bother to invest on the "instant viewing" (which ironically isn't instant at all), if the typical cable internet connection can't keep up with it?
