Videos don't work...

I'm currently at my summer house, and we have no wifi here, so we bring a portable router, a Dovado, with us here. The speed isn't horrible, but there's one trouble; I can't play videos. Neither YT or Twitch will show me any videos, although I can see new uploads, recommended videos etc, like everything was as usual. What's the problem?

Is it a monkey? Is it an ape? I don't care, I LOVE'EM!

If you're using a GSM/Mobile Carrier to get your connection they may not allow you to stream video. I've found this with a few mobile internet plans that only a few include video streaming. Call your Carrier for more information.

Oh, and I forgot to add: Showing videos was just fine up until a certain point, and then BOOM no more video.
