TIOAOA helps, but only sometimes. Title: Re: In the buffer zone Post by: EvilPie on March 12, 2020, 09:50:01 PM Cool story Tom
My internet speed is 51.1mb/s but Netflix doesn't buffer at all. Any other internet speed / Netflix buffering tales out there? Title: Re: In the buffer zone Post by: MintTrav on March 12, 2020, 11:36:50 PM Didn't realise you could test that.
75.4 apparently. I don't have Netflix. Title: Re: In the buffer zone Post by: nirvana on March 13, 2020, 10:03:48 AM Cool story Tom My internet speed is 51.1mb/s but Netflix doesn't buffer at all.

something on your internal network..? change your wifi paswword in case someone is piggy backing... if you have bt your router is automatically set to be a hot spot for any bt customer look to switch off the guest part of your router .. router might need replacing.. if watching on laptop or pc something in the background may be using bandwidth that will be £85 + vat please :) Title: Re: In the buffer zone Post by: RED-DOG on March 13, 2020, 11:52:30 PM is something else using your bandwidth ?.. something on your internal network..? change your wifi paswword in case someone is piggy backing... if you have bt your router is automatically set to be a hot spot for any bt customer look to switch off the guest part of your router .. router might need replacing.. if watching on laptop or pc something in the background may be using bandwidth that will be £85 + vat please :) Cheers mate. I saw your post earlier and checked some stuff out. There can be up to 7 devices streaming on my WiFi at any one time. I did some googling and found out that you can limit the download speed of netflix so I set mine to medium. No buffering so far and no discernable loss of picture quality.

Got about two dozen new books I’ve never had the chance to read due to watching YouTubers. |
