Sorry I'm not much help for scripts.

[Cable] Youtube slow again... help with Tomato bypass script?

HKPolice posted : I thought this was resolved months ago, but seems like rapid growth has outgrown the capacity of youtube's caching servers @ teksavvy.

I can't stream any HD videos smoothly anymore at night and my speedtest results are perfect 24/7 so I know the caching servers are to blame.

I'm trying to bypass the servers with this old script here: »Re: [DSL] Why is Youtube so slow?

echo > /etc/hostsyoutube=$(nslookup www.youtube.com|grep -v 127.0.0.1|grep " 1:"|awk {'print $3'})for ls in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8;do for v in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25;do echo $youtube o-o.preferred.teksavvy-xcm1.v$v.lscache$ls.c.youtube.com >> /etc/hosts;done;done

But it doesn't seem to be working anymore?

Any help would be appreciated.
