Recently switched from 45Mbps to the 75Mbps service with Uverse. Speedtests are consistently hitting 82-83Mbps at all times of the day (82.65 as of this posting). However, I've noticed that since the upgrade, many pages are failing to load all images. It seems like the page loads halfway and then just stops. Youtube, Facebook, Netflix in particular (anything comprised of multiple small thumbnails/previews). See attached image as an example. This is extremely common since upgrading my service. If I simply hit refresh, the entire page loads just fine. But on first visit to a page, I usually get something like what's attached.
Also, if I'm trying to watch a video of some kind, it seems to not want to buffer in the beginning. Video stutters, stops, then sits there. Again as with images, if I simply refresh, everything buffers and streams immediately just fine.
I'm on an iMac with Yosemite using Safari, hardwired over ethernet. I've rebooted the iMac, rebooted the gateway, flushed DNS, changed DNS to Google (8.8.8.8), cleared browser cache and history. Not sure what else to try. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
