Tech Support is ready. Your 100mb/s fiber plan looks good overall, but streaming on your laptop always buffers every couple to three minutes. You've tried different browsers—Chrome, Opera—and even changed devices or Wi-Fi channels without success. The signal strength near the router remains unchanged, and you've tested using Proton VPN at reduced speeds, where videos load quickly with almost no buffering. It seems the issue might be related to network congestion or device settings. Consider checking your router's placement, interference, or trying a different network if possible.

It seems your internet service provider might be limiting speeds for streaming services after you activated the VPN.

However, I don't have the issue on other devices, only on my laptop.

You're experiencing the same problems again. You've already attempted a clean installation, checked for wired connections, and updated network drivers, yet the issue persists.
