At 3,4,5 and 7 pm EST I get the too slow for streaming message while a testspeed.net show speeds of > 930 Mps for D/L and 821 Mbps for U/P. What happening?:dizzy:

Anyone experiencing this?
 
If you have a VPN, try turning it on and see if that helps.

For reasons I've never figured out, my MSFS installation will download updates about twice as fast if it's connected to a VPN (I use ExpressVPN), so maybe you're running into something similar.
 
Used link's procedure. Found no files to delete. Nothing was done.

MSFS worked successfully after a nights rest Good Gremlins at work?:dizzy:

Perhaps it was a very busy MSFS day yesterday.

When experiencing not being able to get photogrammetry yesterday the time from initiating a flight till the streaming message appeared was 4 min.
 
That link is to a thread that was started in 2021. This one is current:

The above link is to an announcement posted by the big boss herself. The first link is to a monitoring post that shows current statuses of online features, and the second is a live thread where you can post specific time/place type stuff that might help Asobo with troubleshooting. With my own last attempt to get weather up, the only thing that seemed to work was the visibility, which was based on a four-day-old METAR:

Bottom line, the dev's know about it, and they're working on it.

Your ISP is throttling your gaming traffic. They can tell by the traffic what you are doing example I'm checking my internet speed so they don't throttle me. I show my speed is great but while gaming things seem slower than they should be.

Now you connect to the VPN and they can't tell what the traffic is so the rules don't get applied and you don't get throttled.

That is a clear indication you are being throttled.
 
I think MS tells you YOUR connection is too slow for streaming when really THEIR connection is too slow. They are gaslighting you.
