IPTV, or Internet Protocol Television, is a technology that delivers television services over an internet connection instead of traditional broadcast or cable formats. When IPTV is supported by a router, it means that the router is capable of handling the traffic associated with IPTV services.
Here's how IPTV works with a router:
1. IPTV services deliver television content (live TV channels, on-demand videos, etc.) to you over the Internet. The content is typically transmitted in the form of IP packets;
2. To use IPTV services, subscribers often need to connect their IPTV set-top box or smart TV to the router. In some cases, the router may need to be configured to prioritize IPTV traffic or provide specific Quality of Service (QoS) settings to ensure a smooth viewing experience;
3. Routers with IPTV support are designed to handle the specific requirements of IPTV traffic. This may include features such as multicast support, which allows the router to efficiently distribute IPTV streams to multiple devices on the local network;
4. Since IPTV streams can consume significant bandwidth, especially for high-definition content, routers with IPTV support may include features for managing bandwidth allocation to ensure that IPTV traffic does not degrade the performance of other network services.
