Hey
we recently upgraded our internet provider to adsl 2+. For some reason i can download extremely fast but whenever i try to watch movies online it takes a long time to buffer. i know theres nothing wrong with the site since my friends watch it fine. Any router settings iu should know of?

It has a lot to do with the website you are using. Does it do it with all sites?

Who doesn't have problems with YouTube occasionally , its a huge site with millions of users. If your problem with web video is intermittent like your problems with YouTube then its completely normal and hasn't got anything to do with your internet connection.

Its most likely to be loading slow because of the server use.

I don't think it's cause of server usage. I just threw youtube out there cause its the first one in my head, but other sites like stage 6 which used to load in bout 5mins before we changed plans take about 30mins now. This happens everytime, not just occassionally.
