Well it is your internet speed. (You can get internet from tethering your phone in your area)
Buffering downloads the next part of the video so unless you get a faster internet its gonna buffer until it finishes. You might wanna try lowering the quality to make it faster!

Unfortunately there is really no way in which you can increase the buffering speed for your connection. The reason the buffer takes so long is because it is based on your connection speed.
If you were somehow able to lessen the amount of time it takes to buffer your videos you would see a video that plays for 1 seconds and then stops for 5 seconds while it downloads the data for the next 1 second of video.

Unfortunately, there is no way to make a "dial-up connection" do what you want to do.
You'll just have to live with it until Hi-speed is available in your area.
