    Question YouTube buffers quickly at the start and then just stops

    I've been having a really weird problem when I watch YouTube on my pc. Basically, whenever I play a video it buffers quickly like the grey bar jumps really far out and creates a sizeable gap over where I'm currently at on the video but then it just stops moving. When the red bar catches up to...

    [SOLVED] Cat 5e Capped at 100Mbps Due to Split Wiring

    Hi everyone, I searched the forum first and I think I know the problem but since I'm inexperienced with working with cables I want to be extra sure. The internet wall jack in my office is capped at ~95Mbps, but plugging straight into the router yields 300Mbps. I traced the wiring from my office...

    [SOLVED] My PC is the only device being limited to 250Mbps down and up. How to fix?

    I recently noticed that for some reason my PC is only able to go up to 250mbps. A technician came over yesterday and told me the Ethernet cable was not the issue. So I contacted my ASUS about my mobo and they said it could be bad LAN hardware. Though I asked them if I could get a network card...

    Question While SOA is running my internet speed drops to <1Mbps from ~90Mbps

    If I start SOA (Seraphims Of Astraeus) my internet speed drops to <1Mbps from ~50Mbps. This is quite an issue as it makes the multiplayer of the game unplayable, this is a guess btw, as I've never been able to start the game without this issue.
