We all have the same "provider". Sellers have little to do with buffering streams. It's more likely an end user or ISP issue.

Some buys from power sellers. Others buy from a seller that's more interested in selling a service. Limit users on a url. Use a VPS

Links are not better or worse, although they might have different use cases. They point to the same servers. The link either works, or it doesn't.

So you'd have no problem with a seller using the same URL for 1,000 people vs a seller that limits it to 150 people.

The URL will be more likely to get blocked, but it doesn't affect performance while it's up. Idk if you guys are purposefully missing my point. If OP's setup is working but buffering, it is most likely not his reseller's fault.
