buffering

[#1]

I have been trying to use my firestick and all I get is buffering, its very frustrating.  I had noticed my connection had slowed but not overly troublesome as I only check emails and ebay. 
Now I have come to use a different aspect and the speed is a big issue.
What can I do please
