What browser are you using? Try reinstalling the gpu driver in case gpu acceleration is messing it up. It might be your isp so you could try a proxy.

You can just use a site like this. https/www.proxysite.com/youtube/ But if it worked before it's probably not it. Doesn't hurt to try though. Did you try different browsers?

Are you able to clear browsing data, like cached images/files etc?

I remember reading somewhere that can help.

Alternatively, what if you reinstalled Chrome? Made sure it's up to date?

Bummer. I know your pain, but I have to watch in 480p or less on my 3mbps Down connection.

How about Firefox? Have you tried a different browser, like Firefox or Edge (If using windows 10), Safari etc? Will they give you the same results?
