While i can speedtest properly to pretty much everywhere I am having a hell of a time streaming Crunchyroll. I've had cox and other providers in the past with no issue. Any ideas on what to do about this??

I seem unable to stream at 720p or better due to constant buffering. 480p is better but I still have to sit and wait for the buffer to catch up. I've never had this problem until I got time warner so I can only assume it is connection related. However my speed and latency to the world seems to be fine.

I could try to make a guess as to what the problem is, but I think it would be faster to go here and send them a message about it. In the mean time, you can go here and see if any of that info helps. Seeing as the problem started after you changed services, it could be related to your DNS settings as I have seen this cause a similar problem in the past. You could try changing your DNS, Namebench is pretty good at finding the fastest one.

There appears to be some kind of routing issue with some IP addresses in a certain range (I don't have the email handy, I will list them later). There is some kind of work-around with blocking these ranges in the firewall of the router. When I say relatively unknown I mean that pretty much only like 10 people in the company actually know about it and what is causing it.
