General Discussion / youtube going offline
May 18, 2026, 10:40:10 PM
Hey folks,
I have an OPNsense router that has lately been causing me a lot of trouble. Whenever I'm browsing YouTube trying to watch videos, it takes a really long time to load and even pops up a "YouTube is offline" message.
I have diagnosed that the issue is coming from the network, as it happens to all devices (Wi-Fi and LAN). When using a cellular network on my phone or a hotspot, this doesn't happen.
My current setup is: ISP (FTTH) -> Router (SFP port - PPPoE) -> Main switch -> LAN + Wi-Fi.
I'm using Unbound on both Cloudflare and Google DNS, and Dnsmasq for DHCP. There are no VLAN definitions or anything configured to block traffic on the main LAN network.
I would really appreciate the help!
