Anyone else having trouble with streaming?

Edit Subject

I am using Rhapsody via the .com site. I'm running it on a MacBook Pro going through our corporate network. My browsers are both Safari and FireFox. I updated to the latest version of Flash (10.2).

Rhapsody works fine at first but then after a while it just stops. Usually it stops late in the first song I play, or sometimes when it gets into the second one. I can't continue to use it this way. What is going on? What can I do?

Rhapsody .com site stops working for me after a short while.

Eureka! I think I’ve got it! Actually, Ken posted this solution. I’m going to post this on all the topics that might be related. “Stuck on buffering” was the issue I had. Worked in the morning, not the evening, worked all day at my work site. Started early in February after years of good service. My setup: Dell XPS, Vista, U-Verse. Only used the .com site with Firefox, it didn’t work with explorer, and the app never worked with vista. I tried some of the fixes suggested by Rhapsody, but I think they were only intended to keep us entertained... never helped. The solution (on my machine): Click on each in sequence: Control panel, Network and sharing center, manage network connections, Local area connection, properties, Internet protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4), properties, Use the following DNS server addresses, enter 8.8.8.8 in preferred DNS server, 8.8.4.4 in alternate DNS server, click OK. Close it. Go to Rhapsody, click playlists, Genre mixes, Blues, select # 22 Boogie Rockin’ BLUES, Turn up your speakers and click play. You’ll be rockin’, and you’ll be Happy!
Now, maybe Rhapsody or AT&T did this, I don’t know or care... it’s working. Good luck.

Thanks to all the community for the support. I'm just happy to have my music back. The new network settings are doing the job. I had problems with pogo.com which was also cleared with the new setting. I'm cool!

Yes, thanks to everyone for helping to keep me sane the last few weeks. I was in the process of changing my DNS last night when I decided to see if they'd fixed it themselves and all my downloading went smoothly. I've downloaded over 100 songs since without a problem. I'll keep the Google DNS numbers handy in case it kicks in again, but I think the AT&T/Rhapsody issues are finally resolved. If they aren't for you, follow through with the DNS fixes provided and get back to enjoying your music :)

This issue hasn't been resolved for me. I'm on T-Mobile using a MyTouch 3G on Android. I've had the same issue for the same amount of time, but I'm still not able to stream anything. So it doesn't appear to be an AT&T problem, or T-Mobile has the same issue (doesn't seem likely to me).

I've also had issues on cox and Sprint's 3g, though streaming through Sprint has been fine now for a few days. Knock on wood..

Sorry to say folks that my Rhapsody went straight back into the toilet. The Google fix worked for a few days but then the streaming started sucking again. Rhapsody gave me a free month when I complained. If they don't have it fixed by the time that free month is over, I'm done either with them or AT&T. Haven't decided which just yet.

I had problems about a month ago with streaming and download times. Rhapsody changed my dns and it got better. Now I'm back to the same mess. I guess I'll have to call them back.This is getting to be rediculous.

I was having problems a night or two ago but now I'm streaming "ok",,,some breaks and interuptions...steady as she goes.

I have a linksys Conductor home music system. I also am on ATT u-verse. Streaming was fine until the end of 2010. Since then it has gotten worse to the point now i cannot listen to a single song. I can play from my computer without an issue. I need a fix asap or i'm dumping Rhap...
