    When you watch a video online, it is the equivalent of downloading it so therefore takes up high bandwith. I seem to have similar problems with irish broadband Ripwave product. Most of the 3g based providers are pretty lame as they share out the connection between multiple users. This is known as contention.
    Try early in the morning or late at night when other users are gone to bed or change provider.
