Hey first thread just cause I can’t find this anywhere.
Beginning of October I started having issues with YouTube, Netflix, Discord and Spotify where it would just stop playing or working. On YouTube it shows the first frame, shows the video buffering but doesn’t play, Netflix is quite similar, Spotify loads the song, says it’s playing it but the progress bar doesn’t move, discord if I’m in a call or join a call it freezes at authenticating and can’t touched at all.
All of this gets fixed with a simple reboot but it sometimes doesn’t or sometimes it won’t do it for 3 days. It’s not a network issue cause every other computer works fine with the network and I’m running through a cable
ive tried different browsers, turning off everything thing from boot except drivers AV and Corasair Link, Ive even checked time see if usage has anything to do with it by playing a 5 minute video and playing 3 hour streams but have equal chances of causing the issues. If you need any information feel free to ask.
and before anybody asks I’ve done multiple virus scans, rolled back drivers, clear caches, turned off hardware acceleration, contacted my ISP, nothing has worked, strangely enough it doesn’t affect other parts of the internet as I can browse perfectly fine but downloads do suffer even when my a speed test says my up and down speed are normal I’ll only get 120kb/s on a download
