| 792443 | 2009-07-17 07:59:00 | I have IE8 and Vista and I have just reinstalled flashplayer incase that was the problem. My download speed with Orcon is 5Mbps. Wonder what I am doing wrong? |

| 792444 | 2009-07-17 08:00:00 | If you mean buffering, thats normal. If you think Orcon is bad, dont change to Xnet :p | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 792445 | 2009-07-17 08:20:00 | Once it starts playing hit pause then wait for the faded red bar to get nearly right across then hit play again | gary67 (56) | ||
| 792446 | 2009-07-17 08:25:00 | Thanks for the advice gary67 and Speedy Gonzales. Have you been on any more tramps, Gary? Sad about those two deaths (Te Papa director and friend) |

Blam Hi Blam, It is download 5.05mbps Upload 0.13 mbps ping 79ms I got my previous results from nzdsl. It does seem strange to me that there is a problem with this speed |

| 792449 | 2009-07-17 09:45:00 | Try other browsers and other video sites. | Blam (54) | ||
| 792450 | 2009-07-17 20:17:00 | No but I'm about to leave for Takaka hill to go caving for the weekend, although last weekend went to Salisbury Lodge for a short tramp | gary67 (56) | ||
| 792451 | 2009-07-17 22:09:00 | Hi, have you tried using Firefox? It's way better than Internet Explorer, because it's much. much safer, for starters, no Active content. Just a thought. Plus you can download YouTube videos with it very easily. Or you could try Opera, as that's quite cool too. I use all 3, but use Internet Explorer very rarely. Regards, AntiVirMan |

| 792452 | 2009-07-17 22:59:00 | I get the same with the HD video from YouTube (Orcon as ISP). At home Im on about 4.5mbps and play normal video fine. I QoS the hell outta my line so I watch the traffic like a hawk really .. I try with the HD video and it just doesnt wanna. I need to pause and let it buffer for a fair bit extra before playing it. At my parents place they're connected at around 16000kbps, and they actually achieve around 1.2MB/sec from international sites, but they still get the same playback issues with HD video from YouTube also :( |
