I have 2ms ping to YouTube and my network is wired 1gbit so it was odd to get so many buffering issues. So i did a search and this solution immediately solved the buffering issue! Prefer IPv4 or disable IPv6 and it’s buttery smooth

      IDK if this helps Internet performance on other sites, maybe it would lol? I do have buffer issues on other streaming websites but i thought that was because they have bad infrastructure(small web sites, some may pirate stuff) Edit: Ok I just tested several other streaming platforms/sites and they all have improved after setting pref ipv4, no more buffering issues!!!
