AH, please can you check out 9gag app on android.
Always slow to load images and gifs - doesn't pull more than 0.5 mbps.

I'll definitely find out more regarding that. Does it run fine for you on desktop?
 
I will have to check that out.
Don't really use my pc for 9gag.
Will give it a go and post feedback.
Thanks for having it checked out.

Cool! :) Check it out and let me know how it goes. (Out of personal experience it seems to run well on Afrigreen, have not checked it out yet on Android).

Can you give us specific services or links to test? If we can recreate what you are seeing, then we can hopefully improve your experience :(

It seems like it is fixed now, was really weird last night though, would stream on YT for hours then suddenly 30-40min of constant buffering then fine again ... ... stayed up for the majority of last night and it happened 3 or so times but today it feels great :)


PS: I do nothing in particular, just waste hours of my life on YT/Twitch ... haha

Very odd, I didn't spot any issues from my end last night on this.
Maybe run a constant ping in the background to see if latency is being affected at all when you see the content buffer?

Will check it out for you :)


:::EDIT:::

Checked it out with the whole ping -t and even though my pings are fine, YT is buffering @ 1080p ... not sure why



Speeds looking really bad for a 10mbps line

throughput drops to a couple hundred kbps when the buffering hits, cant get over 350KBps


I agree I should be able to stream with these stats, but you can't tell me those stats look good for my account type and line speed

I'm assuming you're on a 10Mbps bundle?
Is it just YouTube that's affected here btw?
 
Also had issues last night,throughput dropped to nonexistent,latencies were fine and I could game but even websites were tedious to load

Would you guys be able to paste some results if you still see this tonight/ now?
It's also a good comparison to compare your regular account too if you are seeing issues on Afrigreen.
