DIR-655 and youtube = slow
Thursday, May 27th, 2010For some months now I’ve been experiencing really slow downloads from YouTube on both cabled and wireless network thought my dlink DIR-655 router. I’ve been searching Google for many nights, been trying different setups and never found any real solution to my problem. Today I gave up trying to be smart and geekish, and decided to reset to factory defaults. Yeah I know, lots of stuff to setup from scratch.. doh!
And wouldn’t you know… Youtube streams like it should again. 
Other things I’ve tried that seemed to have helped others are “Enable Multicast Streams” (Advanced – Advanced network settings) and trying various UDP Endpoint Filtering and TCP Endpoint Filtering (Advanced – Firewall setting). None of these helped me, but it seems to have solved the Youtube issue for others so I think it’s worth mentioning.
Firmware I use: 1.33NA | Hardware Version: A3 |Product Page: DIR-655
This was posted in english so hopefully search engines will index it – and if that helps others with the same problem, I’m happy. And I know there are many of you out there! Good luck.
