Streaming throttling
Hi, why is there such throttling of streaming from my mobile device? I’m on a 5G+ plan (with a 15 Pro Max phone), but I can barely watch Twitch or YouTube at 720p. Speedtest always shows 200+ Mbps an...
I’ve been having the EXACT same problem for months with Telus, every day I watch Twitch Stream and YouTube video and it stutter every few seconds or every few minutes, I work downtown Edmonton, full 5G+ cell reception, allow more data on 5G all settings correct.
Telus ABSOLUTELY throttling streaming service on data there is zero doubt cuz I had no issue when I’m using Wifi.
It’s honestly so sad and pathetic they have to do this while I’m paying for 150GB data and half of them is useless.
I get buffering even at 480p sometimes. You have to use a VPN now if you want to keep using Telus. I use Surfshark, free 7day trial. Works like a charm.
SAME!!! I changed it down to 480 I still get buffers
