    YouTube app on Roku constant buffering

    User error. I had read a long time ago about firewall url filtering. Had put some urls in there (google analytics etc.). Apparently YT uses those (of course) and won't work without them. Removed them and bang, it works. Still don't understand why YT on LG worked. Somehow it was bypassing...

    YouTube app on Roku constant buffering

    Tried this suggestion (iptables -I FORWARD -s xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -p udp --dport 443 -j DROP) from someone on Reddit but no difference... Constant YouTube Buffering on Roku TV [TCL]For anyone still seeking a resolution to this issue, I think I have the solution.First, the cause: YouTube is...

    YouTube app on Roku constant buffering

    Very common issue on internet. Lots of posts on Reddit and Roku forums. Not sure it's specific to my setup. Weird thing is it works on my LG. My daughter has Roku Express in Savannah and it works fine there. I bought a Roku Express and same problem, buffering on YT. All other apps...

    YouTube app on Roku constant buffering

    Streaming Stick is attached to LG TV (so same location). All Rokus (TVs & Stick) are wireless only (no ethernet port).

    YouTube app on Roku constant buffering

    Sorry I'm posting here but Roku only has forum support and they aren't very good. I have 2 TCL/Roku TVs and a Roku Streaming Stick 4K+. YouTube app constantly buffers on them. I have an LG TV with the YT app and it plays back fine. So I don't think it's my network/WiFi (or am I wrong?)...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Hurricane Milton's eye passed right over our house. Power out for a couple of days and lots of debris but we did alright. Houses in area, barrier islands etc. not so much.

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    BTW, got the ECB7250K02 on Amazon used--half the price of new. I always buy used especially if Amazon reseller. They inspect it and ship it with original parts and seems like new. Probably someone like me tested it and didn't want it. Never had a problem with anything.

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Yes, I figured that out too late. I did get the screenbeam 2.5 (Model: ECB7250K02). I use the LAN 2.5GHz port on the GT-AX6000 to connect to my computer which has 2.5GHz adapter (ethernet direct connect). And yes the RT-AX58U only has 1GHz. I might look into replacement for RT-AX58U. Stuff...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    The node (RT-AX58U) was getting ~2000Mbps Tx/Rx in shared 5GHz WiFi Backhaul mode. 50% of that is ~1000Mbps. The MoCA connection is 1Gbps (1000Mbps). So maybe that's why I'm not seeing anything different, they're the same speed? Maybe MoCA isn't an improvement in this situation? Wish I...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Ok thanks. Should the Tx/Rx rates be better though?

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    I removed dedicated Ethernet Backhaul and put node on "auto". It defaulted to Ethernet 1G Backhaul on it's own. But I still don't see any difference in device/client connection (bars) or Tx/Rx from when Backhaul was 5GHz to MoCA adapter/Ethernet Backhaul (1G). Someone said when using wireless...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    All shuttered up and I was finally able to get to this. Put filter @ demarc before first splitter and was getting 5% of rated speed. Put additional filter on modem and am getting full speed. However, I'm not noticing any improvement to node (with MoCA adapter) client's connection WiFi Tx/Rx...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Thanks degrub. I'm away for the weekend but will test Monday. Appreciate all your help! Edit: I live in Tampa Bay and hurricane is coming. We are prepping so I don't know if I'll even get to this this week.

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    A.I. provided this. I don't know how accurate. It says my modem supports MoCA. Other search results said it didn't and Spectrum won't answer. I don't use voice/phone (all cell phones with the exception of Google Voice) or cable TV so I'm not sure I need the MoCA filter on the modem...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    "There are no other devices on the coax ? It is odd that the cable ISP would put a 2 way splitter in at the demarc if there was not another device - set top box for cable tv for example" Used to be wired for cable TV throughout house (had like 5-way splitter). Converted everything to wireless...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Ok, yes there are settings in "Management" for backhaul connectivity priority: auto, 5Ghz WiFi first, 1G WAN first. I guess you are saying leave it on auto.

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Interesting, krkaufman said with same modem "just install a MoCA filter (ideally a 70 dB model) directly on the modem, as a prophylactic". So I could put the filter on the modem connector and don't need another MoCA adapter between modem/router? And I don't need the filter at entry point to...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Diagram attached. Spectrum PC20 EU2251 (DOCCIS 3.1). I researched on internet and "they" say not MoCA compliant. Therefore, adapter needed. I ordered the this MoCA 2.5 Network Adapter and this 'POE' Coax Filter.

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    There is a cable coming in from outside, then a 2-way splitter-one to upstairs room (main router) and one to downstairs room (node). I was told I need PoE filter on cable coming in from outside right before it's connected to splitter so that signal doesn't travel back to others in my hub...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Does anybody know if I need a PoE filter and if so where I put it (before modem, before adapter etc.)? I called Spectrum but they're no help, they only troubleshoot their equipment. Thanks I posted on another forum and they say the PoE filter goes where the cable comes into the house.
