cbacn16 Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Whenever I watch twitch the video buffers plays for a second then buffers again. Every other video site is fine except twitch. When I have my pc hooked up to my comcast modem/router I can have a stream open playing at source and play a game, but now I cant even play a stream on the lowest setting with no console on. Checked all over the forums multiple times and couldnt find and answer. I have 123.8 down and 12.24 up

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 17, 2017 Administrators Posted June 17, 2017 Hey, welcome to the forum! You have plenty of bandwidth so that shouldn't be an issue. Are you getting your full speeds through the R1 hard wired? Are you watching Twitch when wireless?
cbacn16 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Posted July 29, 2017 What modem? Hey, welcome to the forum! You have plenty of bandwidth so that shouldn't be an issue. Are you getting your full speeds through the R1 hard wired? Are you watching Twitch when wireless? Sorry it took so long to reply had a lot come up. I believe my modem is a Cisco DPC3941T. not sure what you mean by getting my full speeds or how to check that but I am wired on both my pc and console
cbacn16 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Posted July 29, 2017 also if I connect my pc back directly to the xfinity router/modem it works fine but I would like to run everything through the R1
iAmMoDBoX Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 Cisco DPC3941T Literally the worst modem you can have for gaming. Make sure your Netduma is setup for your speeds: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000022366-why-is-my-connection-speed-lower-
cbacn16 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Posted July 29, 2017 That does not surprise me but I usually have no problems on pc just on consoles. I also did everything in the link but still have the problem

Do a Speedtest wired and make sure you're getting your full speeds. http://speedtest.googlefiber.net/

Trust me I've used that modem on Comcast and told them to take it back within a day after seeing my ping with pingplotter. The video buffering is either something you setup wrong on the R1, if its setup right then it's the modem.

iAmMoDBoX Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 can they give me a different modem or do I gotta buy one From what I know that's all they use, I would personally buy my own. Saves you $10 a month rental fee too. Pays for itself in 5 months.

cbacn16 Posted August 1, 2017 Author Posted August 1, 2017 Reboot the modem after you connect it to the R1 It worked thanks! Now when i set my bandwidth do i have to reset anything?
iAmMoDBoX Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 It worked thanks! Now when i set my bandwidth do i have to reset anything? Set it to the speeds you should normally get, then when it asks to automatically configure the router click yes.
iAmMoDBoX Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 In your original post you said 123 down and 12 up... I'd put in 120 down 10 or 11 up
cbacn16 Posted August 1, 2017 Author Posted August 1, 2017 so before i hooked up the R1 i tested my speeds 3 times using the link you provided in the forum and i got and average of 228Mbps down and 11.7Mbps up but when I just checked it agian with the R1 hooked up im getting 10.1Mbps down and the same up as before. I also followed everything in the link above for fixing my speeds.
