This problem appears to have come out of nowhere.
If watching a video on youtube I can watch it for quite a while then it will stop streaming, the grey bar stops getting longer. It then just shows the buffering circle continuously and doesn't continue unless I refresh the page and resume from where I was stuck.
This happens on Youtube and on BBC iPlayer, although I assume it must happen elseware, but I don't use anything else to know this.
I've tried reinstalling flash and Java, using Chrome, Firefox and IE, it happens on them all. My internet connection can't be the issue as a laptop on the same network has no problem whatsoever and the BBC iPlayer test shows I am way over capable of streaming HD videos.
Please help!
Thanks
David
