Hi there,

Does anyone else have the problem where YouTube on the touch is very slow ? It takes an age to get enough video to stream.
Pretty certain it;s not my setup as the computer has no such issues.

Any tips, tricks or tweaks ?

Thanks

Mark

Same problem. I hear that is is a wide spread problem and it is mot likely a software fault on the iPhone.
Apparently, setting your router from b/g to b fixes the problem. Unfortunately my router won't let me do that, so please tell me if it works.

Incorrect speling should be punnished!!!

hehehe .. I won't be trying that I'm afraid, got an 802.11n router, and the AppleTV works far nicer at 270MBps ... not sure I want to try streaming video over an 11Mbps link :-)

Thanks!
