Hello,

I have the Opera browser on my Wii but sometimes when I download a video from youtube or any other website the download keeps stopping and starting. This is really starting to PISS ME OFF! This doesn't happen all the time. Other times the videos download fine, no stops or pauses, nice and fast. I receive over 5mbps from my ISP and I using a Buffalo high power turbo G wireless router, so I shouldn't be having any problems with downloads.

It is because the amount of traffic my ISP has to deal with, peak times for example? Is it the amount of downloads youtube or other websites are dealing with at peak times. Is it wireless technology can be unstable (but my wireless router is next to my Wii) or is it the flash media player that comes with the Opera browser?

Please can you help.

Hello Alkemystical,

Thanks for the reply. It's good to hear it's not just me, although I can understand how annoying it is for anyone else. I have already e-mailed Opera about a few things that are wrong with their/wii browser. On Sunday I had unplug then plug my Wii in again about 5 TIMES because the Wii/Wii keyboard kept crashing while I was using the browser.

Ever since I got my Wii I hadn't had ANY trouble with it until I downloaded this stupid browser. But as you say, hopefully the "full version" of the browser will run smooth.

Cheers,

YetiboyRGB
