Streaming quality on Xfinity and Ziply Fiber
Many buffering problems in Bend come from Wi-Fi rather than the internet plan itself. Restart the router, move the stream to 5 GHz and avoid running several 4K streams on the same Ziply Fiber connection.
Some viewers use a VPN for privacy or when their ISP interferes with video traffic. It is optional, so test with and without it.
