Youview box losing internet connection when using a certain app

For the past few months my Youview box has been intermittently losing internet connection, but for some reason it is only when I am using the Amazon Prime app.

When watching something on Amazon, after a while it will get stuck buffering, and then I lose internet connection. I have to wait for it to re-establish connection which can take anywhere from 1-5 minutes. The Youview box has a wired connection via plug adapters. I've tried re-setting the box, the router and making sure all the connections are secure.

It only happens when watching something on Amazon Prime. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

Just to clarify - what indicates that you are losing internet connection.

Is it a message on the screen , if so is there an error code showing .

(I am trying to understand if the error message is one from the Amazon App saying that there is a internet problem or a Youview error message ).

When watching something on Amazon it will suddenly stop, look like it's buffering and then go to a screen that simply says, Oops something went wrong! It doesn't show an error code or anything, but appears to be a message from Amazon.

I then have to wait a minute or two for internet connection to be re-established.
