no i still get buffering every once in a while, quality shows of course but the video doesn't load all way so it can just play through smoothly, it's like video loads while its playing  

is it possible not having that much storage left in my SSD drive can cause loading issues when it comes to this or is it just something with internet connection ?

Interesting, have a look at the Network Monitor while playing a video, is there anything else using significant bandwidth?

Quite possible, especially if it's just the PC with the issue - looks like you're using Chrome? Which is a particularly resource hungry web browser. Try another browser/clear your cache/cookies and see if that changes anything. Close any unused applications that might be consuming unnecessary RAM.

Seems quite normal there, you have a lot of bandwidth still available. Do you see the same issue using different browsers/in an incognito window? Does it only happen on YouTube or does it happen on other video streaming sites, Twitch, Vimeo, Netflix etc?

Have you got Share Excess disabled when you go to QoS -> Bandwidth Allocation -> Click the three-line menu in the top left of the panel?

If so, that would explain it, please re-enable that and it should work fine afterwards.

We receive a lot of DMs and they're hard to track so it's not really feasible to provide support over DM.

I don't think this would be a router issue, all devices other than one and all sites other than one are fine, able to take as much bandwidth as they need so the router seems to be doing it's job. It is odd that a browser change makes no difference - could you try connecting your PC to your mobile data/hotspot and see if YouTube has the same issue?

i connected to another router that's in my house and it seems to be good through Wi-Fi, my hotspot wasn't popping up. down below you see the other router load the video, so it doesn't catch up and buffer

When i connect to R2 Router Wi-Fi it loads up fast and how it's supposed to like picture above. Down below is the

R2 on Wi-Fi

For some Reason when the Lan cable is plugged in it doesn't load as fast as Wi-Fi or the speed it supposed to load, apparently Wi-Fi from R2 Loads everything fine but LAN Cable Don't which is weird.

It seems less likely to be an issue with your hardware, it shouldn't have much affect on streaming content from YouTube.

That being said, full/failing drives can cause some really bizarre problems. Can you see if you can find another device you can connect via ethernet, then stream some content on there and see how it is?

okay I'll give that a try could it be anything besides a laptop, say a TV? cause my TV is plugged in via ethernet and cause no problems 

 

Yeah that's fine, as long as it's connected via ethernet. Perhaps it's a hardware problem on the PC then!
