<description><![CDATA[fartness posted : That probably explains it with the DNS servers. I use Google's, since my ISP's DNS servers are garbage. I'll try switching back temporarily and seeing if it makes a difference.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[tschmidt posted : Youtube, as with most other streaming media, is delivered over a content distribution network (CDN). This keeps the bulk of streaming traffic off the regular Internet and utilizes a preferred connection arrangements to the ISP's internal network. It is ultimately up to your ISP to decide if they want to utilize these preferred private arrangements. <br><br>&raquo;<A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_delivery_network" >en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_de&middot;&middot;&middot;_network</A><br><br>Here is a study a while back about YouTube<br>&raquo;<A HREF="http://www.itc23.com/fileadmin/ITC23_files/papers/a5.pdf" >www.itc23.com/fileadmin/ITC23_fi&middot;&middot;&middot;s/a5.pdf</A><br><br>Are you using the DNS servers provided by your ISP or running third party DNS? If you are running third party DNS try switching to your ISP's DNS. Third party DNS is not aware of any special arraignments your ISP has (if any) with a particular CDN. They will resolve a valid IP to obtain the data but it may be delivered over a slower or more congested path then if you use your ISP's DNS.<br><br>Or it may be the case the videos you are streaming are on servers that are heavily loaded. Or it may be the peering arrangement your ISP is using happens to be congested  on the route used to access the particular youtube servers. <br><br>/tom]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[fartness posted : I have a 15/1 connection and speed tests to any site show that's the speed I get. Youtube often gives me issues and will load videos very slow and buffer all the time. Is Youtube just slow, or is there some setting in the Youtube settings for my account that I can change? Doesn't matter if it's 360 or 1080 quality.<br><br>All my other surfing is fine.<br><br>Happens in all browers. Trace routes show no issues.]]></description>
