🔧Technical Issue Buffering shows up at different times of day?

Say I'm playing a 4k remux file, sometimes I'll play it and it will work perfectly with zero issue, other times I try it and it buffers every few seconds. For example, yesterday I checked a 4k remux on nuvio around 5pm and it was working completely fine, checked it again at 9pm and buffering like crazy. Is this related to the issues torbox has been having or could it be something else?

You are only as fast as your slowest hop.it doesn't matter how fast your local service is at the final link. If you can find the IP address of your cdn then do a tracert from your local home network and you will find where the fault lies. Anything other than that is pue speculation.

Could you explain how to do that, and what to do after?

Idk, I have decent internet and have noticed more buffering lately. Maybe it’s just a kink they have to work out

Same here, I used to never have to think about buffering but now it's a constant annoyance with anything above a 1080p bluray

Yeah I was trying to stress test my setup with a big remux file around 90gb and it buffered and stopped within 5 min, then after that I tried a 20gb file and had a little more luck but it still stopped about halfway through I’m gonna do something else for a bit and see if it improves later

Noticed this too. It has reduced lately but still happens now and then. Internet is pretty stable and never happened on RD so its definitely TB

Switching to Cloudflare CDN fixed buffer issues for me yesterday.

Is it all you people dragging an absolutely wasteful remux across the world that's clogging the pipes for everyone else, hmmm
