Problem streaming netflix but not bbc player

Hi all, I'm currently in Australia and have a good internet connection, just ran a speed test and got Ping 4ms, Down 40Mbps Up 35Mbps Sometimes I can't watch Netflix or Skygo because the speed appears to be too low and it keeps buffering, I thought it was just a problem with the network being busy and limiting my bandwidth…

Hi all,

I'm currently in Australia and have a good internet connection, just ran a speed test and got
Ping 4ms,
Down 40Mbps
Up 35Mbps

Sometimes I can't watch Netflix or Skygo because the speed appears to be too low and it keeps buffering, I thought it was just a problem with the network being busy and limiting my bandwidth but I'm able to watch the likes of bbc player no problem in perfect quality and they use adobe flash for video content unlike Netflix and skygo who use silverlight..

I'm using the hola app for chrome to change my VPN but it never seemed to affect it before..

Does anyone have any idea what's causing this??

I've reinstalled silverlight to no effect and it's driving me crazy, it's so frustrating watching something on skygo then it stops every 5 seconds to buffer..
