My Google Fiber Speeds

[Nebor]

TWC throttles pretty much all streaming services. Youtube is the worst for me, forget trying to watch anything but a 360p stream.

Yeah, I tried using the different DNS server and that fixed youtube. But I'm getting buffering trying to watch Hulu right now.

Kinda related to this, but Google Fiber could be coming to a city near you....

I've given up and got a VPS for $5/mo that I setup Firefox to proxy through.

All my streaming woes are gone, so long as I use Firefox.
