A weird one: no online radio

Hi all. I have a really weird issue. Since maybe 2 months ago I am unable to listen to any online radio. Doesn't matter if its an app on my phone or website on my PC or any of my Google devices. It starts playing and after a 1-2 minutes it starts to buffer and stays like that unless I restart the stream/app, then it plays for another 1-2 minutes. Youtube and Spotify work without issues. The only solution I have is to use VPN on my PC but that doesn't help with my Google devices. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm on 1Gig connection with Hub5

Thanks

      Thanks. Just had a look into that and it seems to be a ballache. I can change it on my PC but that doesn't really help me with anything as I can just use my VPN anyway. I may try to set up my own router over the weekend and try to set VM Hub in modem-only mode. Although that seems to be a pain too...
