Having Issues with buffering

[YepX]

Okay, I did read and go through the pinned posts in the forums but I am still not getting anywhere.

I am streaming explicitly on Youtube and am having dropped frames, lag and buffering issues.

I am using a one PC set up to stream and play games.

This is my laptop: https://www.newegg.com/aluminum-bla...se-482-gaming-entertainment/p/N82E16834155799

My Download Speed is : 100 Mb/ps
My Upload Speed varies between 10-15 Mb/ps

I suspect my internet may be the issue but what settings can I use in the meantime if at all possible?

At what bitrate are you streaming to YouTube?

10/2.5 = 4Mbps would be the maximum I would recommend

Streaming at 4000 Kbps

Try dropping to 3500, even 3000 just to test if the internet is the real issue. What is your statistics panel saying

I sadly don't know where the OBS Statistics Panel Is

From the menu bar you under "view" and click statistics. As @PaiSand spend some time on the documentation or at least explore all the menu items available..

I did, I found out the buffering issues I was facing were Internet related, my issues went away after I upgraded my ISP.
