How to Increase Youtube Video Buffering Speed



YouTube is most famous video-sharing website, created by three former PayPal employees in February 2005 and owned by Google since late 2006, on which users can upload, view and share videos. YouTube allows users to watch  wide variety of user-generated video content, including video clips, TV clips, and music videos, and amateur content such as video blogging, short original videos, and educational videos.
Is YouTube loading slow because of your less-than-awesome Internet connection? Try this alternative method of watching YouTube videos at faster speed.

1.Using Open DSN server:

OpenDNS provides a safer, faster, smarter and more reliable way to navigate the Internet. It’s free, easy-to-setup and requires absolutely no download. Basically, OpenDNS lets you speed-up the website detection and loading process which is normally handled by your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
Note: this trick to speed up YouTube may or may not work for you. There’s no real way to know without going ahead and giving it a try. Refer to 2nd and 3rd Method Below, they always work.
  • First Go to Start  select  Control Panel.
  • Then click on “Network and Internet
  • Go to Network and Sharing Center. 
  • Now on the left side pane, you will see Change Adapter settings, click on it. 
  • Select the  “Local Area Connection” and right-click to select properties.
  • Double click on [TCP/IPv4] Internet Protocol Version 4.
  • Click on “Use the following DNS server addresses”.
  • Type Preferred DNS server: 208.67.222.222.
  • Alternate DNS server: 208.67.220.220. 
  • Restart your system, Browse YouTube videos and feel the differences.

2. Using Few Lines Of Codes:

Another way to improve Youtube buffering speed is via some Computer commands.
Follow some steps and you are done.
  • First Go to Start -> Run or Press Windows+R.
  • Type  “system.ini” and then press Enter. 
  • A notepad popup will open something written.
  •   Now Replace the text with the following text:
page buffer=100Tbps
load=100Tbps
download=100Tbps
save=100Tbps
back=100Tbps
search=100Tbps

webcam=100Tbps
voice=100Tbps
faxmodemfast=100Tbps

Save it. Browse Youtube as you do, and enjoy faster buffer speed.

3. Youtube Feather Beta:

When you load a video on YouTube, it's not only video that loads, there are many other things that loads side by side like mentioning credits, keywords, top comments,newest comments and on the right-hand side of the page, you'll see a long list of suggested videos related to current video that you are watching.. All of these things, including like buttons that interact with each comment for thumbs up/down, makes your video to load slower.

YouTube Feather removes the information panel, share button, most of the related videos, video responses, vote counts on each comment, the medium-size player option, like and dislike counts for the video, and the capability to add the video to a list. 
Just follow the simple steps and check in youtube feather beta. I can claim, you will surely see a difference.
