I have high speed DSL and stil have trouble viewing videos or hearing song files. What gives?

Question

It starts, then stops, buffers, starts, stops, buffers, over and over again. Especially on myspace and youtube.com

Answer 1

youtube and myspace are heavy traffic sites if you are going there during prime internet hours your are going to run into this
if you go there early in the morning or late at night and still have the same trouble there could be other issues to consider
do you share your internet connection through a router
if so that could be part of the problem
do you have other websites open while viewing
if you are doing alot of other surfing while the vid or song are trying to play that will slow things down
there is a chance you have some spyware slowing things down
do you have any antispyware if so run a scan
i hope this helps

Answer 2

What browser are you using? You might have a virus also. Try going to antivirus.com run a scan. This scan will not only find viruses, malware, grayware, spyware, adware, etc. but will clean them free of charge. It works better than your own McAffee, Norton Antivirus, etc. Trust me on this one! In addition, what program are you using to see these videos or hear songs? Try upgrading the version of the application you are using, (i.e., Windows Media Player, Real Player, QuickTime) I find Windows Media Player is the best out there. The others cause problems all the time.

Answer 3

Sounds like you have a slow network connection. Do you have any other network activity going on? Try going to dslreports.com and use one of the speed tests there to check it.

You could also have a flaky cable or a bad hub/router.

i do not care how previous it is yet I fairly have in no way heard any song from a recreation on the radio! i haevn't even heard songs from classic disney video clips on the radio so I fairly must believe in on-line radio to hearken to them! the purely songs on the radio r ones by technique of universal singers that the list labels pay the stations to play im so ill of an similar 5 songs in a row we want extra kind & variety with music on the radio! we'd like a non-on-line radio station dedicated to video games & classic disney music from each and every thing as a lot because the ninety's im wondering like radio disney yet only for previous disney songs even though it is going to in no way ensue! human beings would quite listen the similar old over-rated & universal real 40 songs! i will admit i do precisely like the numerous real 40 songs yet we want extra kind it sucks! that is why on-line radio exists!

Answer 5

DSL is only "high-speed" when compared to dial-up. It is still slow. Do yourself a favor and get high-speed internet from your cable company. You'll never look back.
