Problems buffering those on 720p and 1080p (and many other titles on both 720/1080).
On Teksavvy DNS servers.
28/1 Cable, 8x4 Channel bonding.
Speedtest as of 2 minutes ago:

Just started noticing the buffering at home on my android youtube connected to wifi which is 28/1 tsi. I don't watch a lot of youtube other than on my mobile when someone sends me a link so I havent noticed til now. Last night I noticed a bunch of videos buffering in "HD" mode.. I'll check on my desktop to confirm that it's not the mobile causing it...just as soon as I muster up the energy to get out of bed  |

1 edit | I'm now experiencing this issue as well. Getting 30/1 on speedtests, cannot stream YouTube at 720p.
Edit to add: Problem occurs using both Google DNS and TekSavvy DNS. No difference. Something is up. |
|
| Same here. I've got an Extreme circuit on a 4x4 bonded SB6120 on the Richmond Hill POI. In the AM I can watch 1080p content without any issues while at night it's miserable.
This can't be blamed on node congestion as switching to my backup Rogers Express circuit solved the problem. |

| I went to go test just now with some of the videos posted on page 4 and I was getting those buffering errors.
Ran a speedtest though, and I was getting only 5Mbit/s down on 28/1. Released/Renewed my DHCP address (in the router GUI. Power cycling the router will the same result)
Playing 1080p videos just fine now without buffering. I doubt this will help many since it seems there's some POIs out there that are heavily congested. But worth a try. |

You can add me to the master list too.
It feels like i'm on dial-up when i'm watching HD videos on youtube.
28/1 Cable in Mississauga, no other issues, except for Youtube. Tried both Tek and Google DNS servers.

So far I've had no issues in Kitchener on my 28/1 TSI (Robbers) connection with 8x4 bonding using latest Google Chrome. All 1080p and 720p videos load up right away. |

| reply to HKPolice
has anyone else noticed it mostly happening during peak (~5-~11 Pm) hours? |
|
| reply to HKPolice
Oh god, tonight is the worst of all. Probably because it's so cold in Toronto so everyone is staying home. I can't even stream 720p without buffering. |
|
| Here's what I can confirm:
1) The issue appears on all sites, Windows 8, FF 18, Flash versions 11.5.502.133 to 146
2) The issue does not appear on any sites, Windows 7, FF 18, Flash version 11.3.300.257
When I tested the systems were connected to the same network, videos played one after the other, no other transfers going on, playing the same video (Iron Man 3 trailer, 1080p).
so... it's still not flash eh? |

I'm getting ridiculously slow speeds tonight. I thought it was just CTV's site being bogged down tonight (because of the Fiberal event) but it's so bad that I can barely keep a connection even on MSN.
I'm on DSL of course. |

| Yeah, I'm dead in the water and have been all night.
The thing about this congestion though, is how abruptly it "cuts in" and "cuts out".
It really is so similar to when throttling was in place. It cut in over a 15 minute window or so, slowing speeds and pings down from the normal high to the low for the evening. Then, around midnight, over a 15 minute window, speeds were increased back to normal.
I have a ping running 24x7, and it's so easy to see.
It just doesn't seem like natural congestion ebb and flow to me.

| Hm... turns out it was something on my end.
Probably doesn't help that the wiring in this building is no doubt as old as the building itself. |

You just proved me right so NO, it is not flash....Why? Because flash is working perfectly fine on even your other (Win7) PC. Therefore, YOUR PC (Win8) is the blame. This is amplified by the fact that I am running 3 different versions of flash on 3 different operating systems and the problem only happens on TSI and most often, during peak usage hours.
That how we all know it's something on Google's/TSI's end. For the purposes of this thread, please do not post issues about your Win8 config issues as that is clearly a local issue with that PC. We would be more interested if youtube videos are buffering on that Win7 PC for example, that is otherwise working fine.

Sunday nights are the worst. I'm averaging 300KB/s streaming off youtube right now, doesn't matter which video I try.
Speedtest.net is also only showing 18Mbit downstream to TSI's own server. I guess the POI is starting to get saturated as well. |
|
| Happening here again too. Can't even come close to streaming 720p...it was working fine a few hours ago. |
