In the buffer zone

[RED-DOG]

My internet speed is around 36mb but Netflix keeps buffering.

TIOAOA helps, but only sometimes.

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?

Didn't realise you could test that.

75.4 apparently.

I don't have Netflix.

I had a buffer on amazon the other day. Switched to Netflix, buffer gone. What are the chances

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

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.

if the internet breaks we are doomed

Then at least I would be able to leave the WFH brigade and join the skive at homers. Got about two dozen new books I’ve never had the chance to read due to watching YouTubers.
