TBH it was nice, I wasn't able to watch youtube so I did extra homework but at this very moment I'm streaming 2 1080p vids and they are buffered and playing.

Sanek join:2006-08-10 Kanata, ON	reply to The Mongoose said by The Mongoose: Happening here again too. Can't even come close to streaming 720p...it was working fine a few hours ago. Still getting buffering issues here in Kanata (Fallowfield POI) during peak times, but its better than it was say a month ago where it would buffer at snail's pace all the time. Today, I was watching a video around 10 pm and that was having some issues. Come 11:30pm and buffering issues were gone. Speed-wise, again - not a connection problem:

Weaver2 join:2012-03-10	reply to HKPolice I'm with Teksavvy in Kitchener (on 28/1). I also almost always have youtube problems at night with 1080p streaming. It's usually later at night. I can watch a 1080p video no problem around 6pm. It buffers extremely fast. Around, say, 9-10pm, things really slow down. I can perform all other internet tasks at regular speeds, so I assume it's something on Youtube's end, really.

Cambridge On @teksavvy.com	I just ran a ping test to google had 22 fail out of 42 (run>cmd ping google.ca -n 42) and over 10 of the responses were +1000 ms. I rebooted my modem now all 42 passed and average ping was 47ms max 57ms

NOTORIOUS VR join:2008-12-17 TORONTO, ON	reply to d4m1r said by d4m1r: said by brad: said by TSI Gabe: Google just finished the last few config bits of an upgraded caching node, it should be up within the next week. Good to hear that. Hopefully that will resolve most if not all of the YouTube related issues for quite some time. How long is quite some time? I've never had this issue before...Until this week, so I'm glad this thread came up. I'm in Ottawa West btw and I'll be checking next week I guess... I've had issues with Youtube ever since switching to Teksavvy from Rogers... Of course Teksavvy has always said it's not their problem. I've just come to deal with it now.

I've just come to deal with it now. Just to add a little more info for everyone. The issues with Youtube is occuring over here in AB with Shaw and Telus. Both my neighbours on either side of me are having the issues, yet I'm not. Although I have DHCP/DNS being handed out via a DC, nothing else is different besides I'm on a Biz line instead of a residential. I also have two static's assigned to the account. As far as DNS, my forwarders in the DC are set to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 only and have been for 2+ years. I haven't seen one issue at all, yet the two right beside me can't play Youtube to save their life.

Liberty25 join:2013-02-01	reply to HKPolice I on TSI DSL near Ottawa, and I'm also experiencing this problem during peak time. It's not just youtube, but also other video sites (ie. Vimeo), so I suspect it's more general congestion on TSI than just youtube. But maybe there's also a specific problem with a youtube cache server on top of the congestion problems mentioned here: »[DSL] Network congestion tonight?

I've been trying to watch the US superbowl commercials since about 4am and not only is it slow, buffering flat out stops! ...if you want to call that a peak time, so be it. This is for any youtube video, any resolution. It's not just today, it's nearly all the time. Like other people have said, it's only youtube so something isn't right. Pretty much all other sites and online activities go at full speed when youtube is crippled. This started happening only after i left Rogers.

MrMazda86 join:2013-01-29 Kitchener, ON	It does seem quite unusual. Perhaps it may have something to do with the difference in network congestion between the TSI cable and TSI DSL?
