I've recently had some buffering issues with Youtube and have discovered that if I disable IPv6 on my network this resolves the issue. Since I haven't changed any networks settings recently I'm leaning towards this being an external problem but don’t want to discount something internal.

 

Other than Youtube I’ve not noticed any problems. I pass on ipv6-test.com and get the green IPv6 banner on geekzone. I’m using a Mikrotik router and am connecting using IPoE.

 

Is anyone else having problems with IPv6 and Youtube or have any ideas about how I can test/quantify the issue rather than just trying to quickly seek through Youtube videos? Do 2degrees Youtube caches exist in both the IPv4 and IPv6 address space?

I switched IPv6 back on to check and it seems to be back to normal for me too without otherwise changing anything. Not sure what the issue was but glad it has fixed itself
