• Multiple weird connection issues on my new computer.

Hi. I really need some help regarding these issues I've been having. For 2 weeks now, this new computer (on windows 10) has been bugging me when it comes to connecting, uploading, and on loading sites. I cannot find a solution to it (or I'm just not looking hard enough?), so I need help identifying what this problem could be. Here's what's happening: -Randomly and not often, when I'm loading sites, going to another page (etc), the pages will either not load at all (get stuck on connecting) or will partially load the page (images missing, structure of the site looks fucked). -I cannot seem to upload any videos to youtube. The bar will be on 2% or 3% (depending on size of file), then a minute or so later, the bar will suddenly become 0%. It will keep doing this on loop. -I can't connect to mega.nz at all. Which sucks, since I need to download important files from there. These issues are unfortunately weirdly specific, so I find it very odd. I'm able to stream on twitch.tv fine and uploading files to dropbox and the like. I have tried switching browsers but no luck. I read something about my DNS being possibly corrupted or something, so I switched to a Google DNS; no real difference besides the first problem happening less often (this might be a coincidence?). I was able to do all of this on my old computer, so it shouldn't be a problem because I'm using the same internet. I'm able to access mega.nz on my phone too. I'm really stuck, I've ran out of ideas. I can provide more info if you need. This problem is very crappy.
could you run "tracert mega.nz" in cmd please, im curious to what your pc thinks also run a speedtest
Result of tracert mega.nz: [T]http://i.imgur.com/bpbXfpH.png[/T] Sorry for the french. "délai d'attente de la demande dépassé" means "Waiting time exceeded" and "Itinéraire déterminé" means "Determined itinerary". Speedtest result: [T]http://www.speedtest.net/result/5955907736.png[/T]

Speedtest result: [T]http://www.speedtest.net/result/5955907736.png[/T][/QUOTE] Are you using ipv6? because the Ip's in the tracert are ipv6 (Yeah it is, the first jump is ipv6 through your isp) Im not extremely knowledgeable about ipv6 but it could potentially be the issue. Maybe forcing ipv4 could help? im not sure tbh because my ISP are stuck in the past of ipv4
I'm not sure how to force it to use ipv4. I found it kinda weird that my ISP would make it display ipv6 instead. [B]EDIT[/B]: Ok I googled it lol. I just disabled it and now everything works fine! I can upload videos and go to mega.nz. That's really fucking weird, why would it do that?
[QUOTE=lolyoshi;51654218]I'm not sure how to force it to use ipv4.

Its probably because the sites dont properly support ipv6 or theres some weird shit going on in-between.
Yeah, thanks for the help. I appreciate it.
