I've noticed the lag/skip on youtube sometimes but rarely. I notice when this happens, the download takes a while and goes in increments of 2%. What I do is back out and go back to that video again. It then downloads faster and lag/skips goes away. I'm not sure why that is. Can't be coverage since I normally get decent coverage at about 800kps at home. And also I will be in the same exact spot. I've just learned to accept it.
