Udemy performance issues on Excitel Broadband

[john_dud]

Anyone experiencing massive buffering on udemy? I can hardly stream even if I go 480p, I have to pause for a good few minutes on 480p and 360p plays fine but that's potato quality.

no issues..... playing their highest resolution 720 without buffering.....

1080p working for me

I guess it's the usual weekend choking because I see the same result even if I test on their delhi internet exchange server

As expected, it's a capacity problem, speeds are normal now but still can't play Udemy videos at 720P or higher without constant buffering.

Weekend woes as usual, I can play Udemy videos with minimal buffering now and speeds are looking normal now.

So can't play any videos at 720p or higher even right now.

try with different dns servers? default, google, opendns, quad9 etc.

I never use Excitel dns servers anyway, most of the times I'm on d0wn dns. I know this will get worse on the weekend so I'm hoping that they'll have a look then but I'm not holding my breath, it won't be long before they also start doing this

well i was suggesting trying out default nameservers. google and opendns perform optimally for me but performance goes down massively when i switch to any other dns like 9.9.9.9.
