this is pathetic and really starting to **bleep** me off. It has bee month since I was able to successfully watch a video on Youtube without it pausing all the time. **bleep** is up??? We moved to Fios because Comcast was impossible do they really want to start losing customers?? I honestly am shocked no one from Verizon hasn't seen this posts in their forum. I know there are many more out there getting mad just like me.
FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also why when I test my line speed at their site does it show such a contrast to speed test??? Upload/Download on Speed Test is not bad and what I expect. On Verizons Speed Test my upload is like dial up speed. In the past it would always show exactly what be about 35/35 and was off on Speed Test.

If you've read this thread, it should be clear that YouTube has been have problems recently. If you google for "YouTube problems", you will also see it has been occurring across many ISPs. This is a YouTube problem and not something that VZ can fix.

I am on Google DNS and have been for some time. I have heard that it is Youtube but I find it hard to believe. Why would it
be just for certain ISP's and not others???
It is obvious to me nothing is going to get fixed on either end. Like I said it has been weeks since it worked correctly. Now tonight
I keep losing my connection, so that is even better service from verizon.
thanks guys for the great service

It definitely affects only some providers. If I vpn into my workplace then I can watch hd youtube videos without a problem.

for those that haven't tried it, I can tell you from experience, that my youtube is a REAL PITA on wireless, but works flawlessly when I am direct connected to the router. if you're direct connected then ignore these instructions. but if you're wireless then try the following and change the wireless signal. you can do that in the router. open a browser, and go to http://192.168.1.1, user name is admin. and the password is most likely the serial number found on the service tag of your VZ router unless you changed it.
Once you login succesfully, go to the top and hit wireless, then on the left basic security. then go to option 3 which is channel
1, 6 and 11 and are the only channels you should try.
So it will likely be set to auto, change it to 11 and put the check for keep settings even after reboot (Directly under the channel) and then hit apply.,
after you hit apply, test your connection out, if you notice a difference, leave it like that until the problem happens again, and if it happens again, go back into the router, and try channel 6, test it out. and then finally 1 if the first two don't work.
Also take a look at page 2 of Actiontec's Wireless PDF File. It gives you some idea's with regards to position and orientation of where the router sits and how it can best be positioned for maximum coverage.
and also take a look at How to improve wireless networking with the MI424WR Verizon FiOS Router

Its really starting to look to me like Verzion is slowing download speed from video streaming sites. This happens on other sites besides youtube, such as Vimeo.
In one instance, a long YouTube video was loading real slow and stuttering constantly. So i opened up my remote desktop and logged into a different computer across town which uses a different ISP. I was able to download the video using the remote computer, then upload that to my home computer. All before I could load it straigh from YouTube at home.
This shows me that there is nothing wrong with my ability to download that video, as long as its not comming straight from YouTube.
