The last 48 hours have been frustrating for a lot of people. There has been a routing issue between the Chicago video edge location, which is where free users connect to, and specific ISPs. If you are experiencing buffering across all streams, not just one or two, then please provide the following info:

1. The name of your ISP
2. Your current IP address ( https://www.whatismyip.com )
3. A screenshot of a trace route from your computer to video-cdn.vaughnsoft.net ( How to do this: https://lexisnexis.custhelp.com/app/answers/answer_view/a_id/1088078/~/running-a-traceroute )
4. The results from our speedtest tool to Chicago: https://speedtest.vaughnsoft.net (must use this tool and select Chicago. We cannot accept any other speedtest tool results)
5. Send this info to contact@vaughnsoft.com (subject: ISP info) or get a hold of Mark in Tech Corner ( https://vaughn.live/tech_corner) and give him the info and screenshots
