Anytime I try to watch anything on you tube it keeps pausing.

Hi there and welcome.

That sounds like a bandwidth issue. You can download a free app "Speedtest x" from the App Store and test your broadband speed, post it here and we'll see if that's the problem.

There is lots of good advice and info on here plus plenty of members all too willing to help with any problems.

Remember, search is your friend.......and please don't forget to read the rules http://www.ipadforums.net/forum-rules-help-info/2119-forum-rules-everybody-please-read.html

These are the hacking section rules for all you jail breakers (and would be jail breakers) http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/2892-hacking-section-rules-please-read.html

We also have an app for this forum. The link to download the app is: Discussion Forum for iPad Users for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on the iTunes App Store

If you have other Apple products or are interested in other Apple kit then why not join our sister forum too at http://www.appleforums.net/

Finally, if you still haven't had enough, how about a video explaining about our other forums (note:you may want to play this at half speed but hey, why shouldn't Phil be excited about our forums!)

The test said 73 ns 2.54 Mbps and.66 mbps I don't know what that means

Well your download speed is the important one here and 2.54 is quite slow and probably explains the problem. What speed are you supposed to be getting on your broadband service?

Welcome to ipf,

Try restarting your router, or contact you service provider
Is this only on your iPad or on you computer as well?

It is only doing this on my iPad. I checked my desktop and my lap top and do not have the problem.

I am not sure what our speed is supposed to be. Everything seems to be fast. Why would it be only on my I pad that I am having this problem? I will have to find out what the speed is supposed to be.

I had a problem where my iPad was running slower than my Macs, it took a great deal of rebooting of my router and my iPad to get it running nice and fast. Nothing to lose by trying it.
