Buffering Problem

yes you could be right i have not had a issue on this site in 6 years , may have to do a scan on your PC or whatever you have got

“Have you tried turning it off and back on again?” - The IT Crowd

I have tried all of your suggestions thank you all. I have just returned to the site and all is very quiet in all realms. Loading etc. is now not a problem. I believe the problem is the amount of traffic now visiting this site all at the same time. Or as you have suggested one of the local servers in overload for the same reason. Which ever it may be it appears that somewhere technology needs to be upgraded to cope with the amount of traffic. Thanks for your advise. Merry Christmas

Glad to hear that you are good now. Welcome! You will experience lag and buffering from time to time, typical for this type of site. But it’s pretty good most of the time. Indeed they need more nodes and bw to handle increased traffic (and some say this venue is dying - HA!). Hang in there.

Hello. If this site was visited by 15 people from the same village, then any friezes would really mean that there is a problem with the site. But since this site is visited by a little more people (about a million times more), we at one time took care of monitoring the average delivery time of content to all consumers. And also we constantly monitor the available bandwidth reserve, and keep it at least 30% of the available capacity in pike.
In addition, we never claim that the problem is on the user’s side - the Internet is a complex system, and the problem may be somewhere between yours and ours. Therefore, if you have problems again, write immediately about it to our support, they work around the clock and will be happy to help you.

At the moment the only place with problems is realm4. And this is issue with realm not with the site.

Thank you I will monitor for times of day etc. I understand that the problem could be anywhere in the vast internet. It just seems coincidental that the problem goes away when all the realms go to s___p for the night.
Thanks for your help.
