Anyone else having any problems with youtube? I have an excellent internet connection, all other video sites are fine, Netflix and Amazon both stream in HD just fine, and the problem is hit or miss with youtube.

Sometime it streams just fine, sometimes it's very slow, just curious if anyone else has problems

    I'm still having the same issue off and on with youtube. It's gotta be something specific to that service and my setup, because I get excellent bandwidth and can stream HD from Amazon and download huge files and play CoD all at the same time with no problems.

    But then I can close everything out, and just try to watch a youtube video and it just hangs.

    The only thing 'weird' in my setup is that I'm running DD-WRT on my router. It sounds like it's time to do some real troubleshooting...

    I'm on the latest version of Firefox (at home at least) and any "new" or HD res video will not load. Old or low res doesn't have a problem. This goes for my laptop and tower... I've tried googling it and can't find any fixes...
