Thanks. I will have to check this out. Consider myself fairly savvy, but never knew or thought of this. Been having some issues with wifi (could be my router), so might try to tweak.

Changing DNS settings only will help certain things... The delay when initially loading a website, sometimes slow YT buffering, etc.

If you're in a congested area in terms of wifi usage (lots of neighbors with wifi) you can play with different channels on the router. The 2.4ghz bands are fairly popular with all sorts of devices including routers, so they can fight with one another if you're in apartment buildings, and so on.
