Buffering Issues

Hi
I am experiencing a lot of issues with buffering when streaming on my TV, like Netflix, ITV Player etc. Also the Internet seems to lag quite a bit compared to my previous ISP

Nothing has changed in my home set up whatsoever other than a change to Plusnet with your router but your service is significantly worse than my previous ISP. My speed test readings are always between 10 and 15mbs so this should be fine, which it was until I moved to Plusnet.
Is your service inferior to others? If not, please can you advise on how I can rectify this annoying issue. I stream a lot so I could do with a solution. Thanks

Re: Buffering Issues

Sorry to hear you're having issues streaming.

I've tested your line and I can't see any cause for this as you should be getting speeds around 16mbps.

Can you confirm if you've been testing over a wired or wireless connection?

If wireless can you test a wired connection to see if that has the same issue?

Re: Buffering Issues

I am going to put this on hold for a week as I am currently away from home. I will test on my return.
To clarify, you want me to test to see if I encounter buffering over a wired connection, thst correct?
