At one time my flash player worked great,I have the latest that my system supports.
I could watch you tube,hulu and other flash vids with no interuption.
Now a flash vid will start then buffer after 10 secs then 2 min and all over again.
I have 250 kbs wireless, what puzzles me is that worked great 1 week ago.
My question is this my PC or my provider.
And is there any thing I can do on my end.
Thanks for any help.

You can check your ISP here;

http://speedtest.net/

Could be your browser, if your isp speed is ok.

Sometimes the ISP will throttle you back, if they need more bandwidth, or you use a lot of bandwidth.

I have 18.91 Mbps download and 3.59 Mbps upload. But that's on ethernet cable.

A Big Pipe wrench would work also.

Before you use the heavy tools on it,

Try this Free Software tool;

It will help you optimize your computer, and make it run faster.


Have a good Day.


Won't be long before the weekend come...

Try using speedbit accelerator, I was having similar problem when I moved to a new place. Now it’s working very fine. When you click a video link, just let it buffer and do something else. It works for me.
