Since yesterday, I am unable to watch Netflix and Youtube videos anymore. I have tested different devices:
Netflix
All iPhone, Macbook pro and Apple TV cannot play netflix videos. It says:
"Internet Connection Problem
An internet of home network connection problem is preventing playback...
Erro Code: M7037-1101"
YouTube
Using iPhone Youtube App, I can search for and browse videos but not play.
On Macbook Pro, I can play youtube videos. The loading seems a bit slower than before.
Other Streaming Video provider:
I can play dailymotion without a problem.
I have reboot my Quantum Gateway G1100 rounter. It did not help.
For the speed testing, the results look okay.
Download: 57Mbps
Upload: 64Mbps
Below is recent system log of the router (not sure what it means):

I was having this issue as well in the Pittsburgh area. Here is what worked for me
I had a feeling it had something to do with the IP block. They pushed a new IP address and it was in the same IP block as the old one.. 74.111.114.xxx.
After dealing with support 3 times and several hours later I was unable able to solve the issue. I started exploring settings on my own.
Here is what I found... Releasing the DHCP lease on the router will release the old IP address. It should then it pick up a new IP address. I did this until I got an IP address outside of that IP block. I also temporarily disabled the firewall within the router.
I have a quantum router and these are the steps to relase DHCP
- Log into your router at http://192.168.1.1
- Take note your IP address on the left side of the screen. You will need to compare it later in this process.
- Click on the My Network icon at the top.
- Click Network Connections from the menu on the left.
- Click Broadband Connection
- Click Settings
- Scroll down and click Release under DHCP Lease
- Click Apply
- Click main at the top and then see if your IP address has changed.
Within that same settings area, toward the bottom is "Internet Connection Firewall"
- Uncheck it, click apply
- Test Netflix to see if it started working
- Go back in and re-check that box and hit apply.
I have been dealin with this for 2 weeks and this JUST worked for me tonight. Let me know if it works for you

Exactly, using my phone's LTE, I can use YouTube and Netflix. It cann't be YouTube or Netflix's faults, since they are two different companies!
I suspect that Verizon has implemented certain data throttling scheme (see below, they have done this for verizon wireless), but it is buggy and affects users like you and me...

I am receiving the same error code from Netflix as well: Error code M7037-1101. All other sites work correctly except Netflix (including Youtube for me). But on my Fios home network, I cannot connect through the new STB option, computer or phone. However, Netflix works perfect when I turn the WiFi option off and stream through my LTE connection. It appears Fios has blocked or throttled Netflix.

For the Netflix issue.
normally if you can stream one or more services and not a select few that is a video service issue. Your provisioned speeds are more than enough to stream.
maybe have Verizon or yourself reset your ont, and your Verizon router, also turn off any devices be they ethernet direct connected or using WiFi and wait 5-10 minutes
then turn the ont on first. Wait till the lights are green.
then turn on the router, wait until it’s fully booted up and has dhcp. (Internet connection)
then turn on one device preferably direct connect and not WiFi and try Netflix and Youtube and see if you can do so.
if you can then turn your other devices on at one by one. Test out the streaming.
if certain devices can stream and others cannot you then have a individual device issue and not a streaming connection Fios issue.

Thanks for your suggestions. I have been working with Verizon tech support in the past a couple of days to solve this problem. They have done what can be done including reboot ont, router, etc., and even sent me a new gateway router.
After turning on the new router for 30 mins, the first thing I did was to connect a Dell PC to the router using ethernet cable. Still I can not watch Netflix, neighther all my other devices works.

I am having the same issue. Tried everything with no resolve. The interesting thing is that I can watch YouTube and Netflix via my computers but not through smart TV or mobile devices connected to wifi.
What did they say would fix it or is it a wait and see if Youtube and Netflix come up with a solution. It is just weird that we are all having the same issue starting around the same time.

Another thing I would try is to see if parential controls have turned themselves on.
if it did, turn it off.
additionally do a tracert to Netflix.com and Youtube.com and see if the connections time out. Please remember Youtube is a google property (alphabet)
you can also try a ping to both sites and see if there are any packet loss.
i am using Netflix and my wife has Youtube on 2 4K smart tv’s without any issues.
we also use Roku in two places, and Apple TV 4K devices in two places, and have it on all of our computers and cell phones and laptops with no issues what so ever.
we can stream Acorn TV and DirectTVNOW and Amazon Prime video and other streaming apps on all devices again with no blocking or slow downs.
I would say it is at your central location or the ont may be bad. It does happen.
Check with both services and see what their knowledge base gives as solutions.
