A wireshark capture shows nothing is wrong as to traffic but getting stuttering. So anyone else using IPlayer at the moment and find its struggling?

Have you tried reconnecting to get a different gateway? Not sure if the network is still out of balance following Friday's outage.

My normal PlusNet download speed is around 17mb/s
A test download for you is showing 13mb/s at the moment 17:30

Not related to this issue, but be aware that BBC iPlayer is throttled back on Plusnet between 6pm and midnight, to a max of around 2mb/s for myself, others times it's 17mb/s for me.
Not sure if it's a BBC iPlayer or a Plusnet thing
6pm to midnight
Midnight to 6pm

2mb/s is with unlimited accounts and irrc its after midnight. I've tried a few gateways and all give the same problem, so could be a local exchange issue[Inverness]

It is not about the desktop IPlayer but online viewing on-demand streams. I was watching The Voice last night so probably the demand for that stream overloading the host BBC server
