Hello i have a 7982 on standalone  Software Version:9.8.3.0.14. Everything is working fine except video apps on my phones like you tube seem to be running slow and takes a long time to load. on my laptop it works perfectly fine. i dont know what the problem is with mobile devices on my network not working well with youtube.  any help would be appreciated

Does an Android device work better than an iOS mobile device?  Are you close enough to the AP to limit packet loss?
Do they have the same problem with other embedded video (like on CNN.com), or only youtube?

both ios and android have same problem, I have tried been close to the AP . Certain video player apps are slow. For example the youtube apps on my phones will take like 15 seconds to load the thumbnails . Im not sure if its my set up since im not very experienced in networking. I just have my modem connected to my wireless router with the radios off and then the AP connected to the router. I can reboot everything and it seems to solve the problem but after 3 days it starts to slow down.
