Re: Youtube an absolute joke
 

as a side note to this, i have noticed my youtube videos download at proper speed when i tunnel through my vps in the netherlands. That implies a peering issue i guess? A pretty bad one?

Awful Youtube speed last night (LE11, 30mb, around 8:30). Speedtests came out fine. Youtube's own speed page indicated that my speed was around 9mb for the last month (which should be OK) but then their test video exhibited the same problem I usually have - loaded like the clappers for a bit, then absolutely nothing. Everything else (OnLive included) is fine.

I had been having problems with youtube for so long, about 2 weeks ago VM came over and installed a 6dB forward path attenuator to my modem, saying that would fix the problems with youtube and streaming, and it did. 1080p videos now stream at full speed even during evening times.

I would advise anyone facing these issues to head over to VM community forum, and report this issue

Re: Youtube an absolute joke
 

Hmmm. I'll check my power levels tonight.

Re: Youtube an absolute joke
 

I have had my power levels checked a couple of times and the VM engineers attached an attenuator. But I still get the same Youtube problem!

Re: Youtube an absolute joke
 

i get some issues with 480p videos streaming, but when i switch to 720p (if there is the option) the video streams in seconds.

i have a feeling i read somewhere that it's something to do with youtube putting priority bandwidth to hd videos, thus causing sd ones to stream slower, but i may've just come up with that thought in the past myself :)
