Love Freezone but get so frustrated when trying to watch programmes or u-tube because of the buff. pauses. I have an 8gb,64bit new computer and the latest adobe flash player. Settings say I am receiving bps 0.4 and should be 1.1 min.
I rang ozemail to see if the prob. was at your end,was on a 8 to 13 min waiting list for ring back and that was last Wednesday.
Can you give me some reason why this is happening please.
thank you….Jenny
Hi Jenny,
Your computer itself shouldn’t be responsible for YouTube having to buffer – it’s likely to be a bandwidth issue, but determining where it lies is a bit of a process of elimination.
More often than not the issue is going to lie somewhere between your modem and the exchange. What we’d look at first would be the sync speed your modem is reporting between it and the exchange. If that’s low, we’d look at things like an isolation test:
https://iihelp.iinet.net.au/Isolation_Test
Which helps isolate (!) the problem down to a single piece of equipment, such as the filter or the phone cable.
If your sync speed is fine, I’d probably suggest looking at Wireless, if you’re using it. If you connect your computer up via Ethernet cable and the problem disappears, you’d need to fiddle with your wireless settings (like the broadcast channel, etc.).
These two options will – more often than not – determine where the issue lies. There’s a slew of other less common reasons behind reduced bandwidth as well (virii, RIM congestion, etc.) which support will explore with you if the above two options don’t provide any joy.
If you could try contacting iiNet again on 13 22 58, we’ll be able to go through these with you. If you don’t receive a callback this time, can you let me know via email (with the phone number you called from and the time of the call) and I’ll lodge a callback manually and investigate why you weren’t receiving a return call.
Cheers,
Matt Jones
