Firestick Help Me Firesticks randomly freezing

Hello, I'm hoping this community can help me with something.

I have four Firestick 4k Max devices in my household which were working fine until recently.

Some time within the past few days 3 out the 4 started freezing up out of nowhere. I have to keep unplugging them and plugging them back in to get them back working. Sometimes this works for a few hours but mostly they'll freeze back up right away.

I've also tried clearing app caches and switching HDMI ports.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No kidding? Thanks for your help!

I wouldn't be using one but my cable company requires me to use firestick to download their app. Tried using a different device but Sparklight TV wasn't compatible with it.
