Buffering causing sound and video to be out of sync

my DirecTV boxes for 3 tvs are buffering several times in about 30 seconds probably 6 or 8 times every 30 minutes. I am ready to cancel my streaming service. This just started about a month ago. I’ve always had some buffering, but not the sound issue when it comes back on. I have Netgear 1100 hotspot with 4 bars of reception.

This is typically caused by slower internet download speed at your streaming devices. 4-bars of reception doesn't really mean much. What's the actual download speed at your streaming device? Have you tried resetting your WiFi router? If possible, try using a hard-wired ethernet connection instead of WiFi.
