Youtube problems with U-Verse.

I have U-Verse internet at 45mbps. Everything seems to load normally, but then when I go to YouTube, it doesn't load. It will start the video at the lowest quality, play the video for like 2 seconds and then buffer. I can literally go on twitch and watch streams easily at source quality. Also, some downloads are unusually slow as well. At my dad's house with 75mbps comcast, something would download in a couple seconds. With the same file with 45mbps U-Verse it would take 10 minutes. Im using a powerline adapter and I'm 99.9% sure it's not a problem with that. I've tried watching youtube on my wireless devices at close range to the router and it still wouldn't work. Also, I went to the internet speed test website and i got 20mbps.

use the hard factory reset on the modem and see if it fixes it

if you have a router ..disable it for now and just use the modem
