How fast is your Internet connection? « on: July 24, 2007, 08:45 AM »

Can anyone help me?  Whenever I open a youtube video it could take 10 minutes to load up fully which I don't understand because my computer is relatively fast on everyone else.  How do I make them load quicker?

YouTube depends on your internet connection, not the processing speed of your computer. Smile

It all depends what internet package you have.

I'm on 2 meg with Tiscali, and I'm at 1983 Kbps so that's about right. Smile
