Re: Youtube sucks for me

Do you know the YouTube streaming severs? I think I need to capture some packets to be certain I have identified the source, but a comparison trace from an AT&T connection would be interesting. I used to see a direct connection between 'sbcglobal.net' routers and YouTube; but I've not been an AT&T customer for a couple of years. I might try and catch a route from a friend's "at&t Yahoo! HSI Basic" connection. YouTube is painful to watch from a 768/384 connection, though (she won't pay more for faster).

Here is my current route from a Sonic.net connection:

A wire shark packet capture might help shine some light on any network issues. If anyone has the time or ability to capture one.
