Buffering way too much

Why is my service buffering so much ? I have plenty of data . I have reset modem . Called multiple times and they say their is no problem on their end. But something isn’t right.

Hi @onemystroe

It looks like this is your first time posting here, thanks for reaching out to the Forum team :slight_smile:

I’m sorry about this situation you’re experiencing.

We’ve checked your account and setup, and currently they are all healthy, and your modem speeds are good:

To help us better understand your issue, I have a few questions:

  • Would you be able to tell us when you first noticed this buffering, or have you always experienced this?
  • Is it happening specifically on video streaming websites, or are other websites loading slowly?
  • Does this happen on all websites, or just 1?
  • Do you notice if this happens at a specific period of the day, or 24/7?
  • Are you currently using any external Routers besides the Viasat-provided modem?

And lastly, when you get a chance, can you please use a laptop or Android phone to run a complete speed diagnosis on https://speedcheck.viasat.com, with the Viasat Browser?

Sometimes we see good speeds on our side from your modem, but this doesn’t reflect your devices’ speeds, so with this tool we have a way of knowing both at the same time.

This will help us get a full reading on the speed situation and allow us to identify/rule out Wi-Fi issues.

You can follow our guide: How to run a complete speed diagnosis – and please let us know if you face any problems while running the tests.

Thanks!
