How`re ya Bluesydid that work last week for you? as in with your buffering problem? I think i mentioned that if you paused it for a few minutes it would build up and basically let your computer store a few minutes info ahead of itself,this normally stops the buffering effect. as in your computer will not have to hang around buffering(waiting for the next bit of info to come in so it can play it?) What service are you with Bluesy? i.e. Eircom,BT ? and what should your connection be i.e. 1mb or 3mb connection?

Originally posted by knotacluHooterit is almost impossible to get 100% of your download speed as it is directly linked to the amount of connection allowed by your isp on their servers,if you sign up for say a 6mb broadband,with traffic and latency etc,you will be lucky to reach 3-4mb.when an isp offers you download speeds of say around 6mb this actually means UP TO
you will never reach those speeds, that is only in a perfect world!Isp`s have been taking customers money for years with this scam,and nothing can be done to rectify it because of those simple two words --Up TO[/quote:

yes you are right about when they say up to ...speed you only get 3/4 of it, but there are ways to get the most of what you are supposed to get
well i am on irish b.band breeze 2meg download & 2meg upload and the ping is usually 15ms, and mine never goes down past 1.9 if im on the computer only and at anytime of day, and that is with a ratio of around 24-1 or 36-1 not quite sure which one it is,
and right now my son is on his x.box and im getting 1.86 download speed 155 upload but my ping has gone up to 35ms thats still not bad,
now there is a legal way to get the best out of your modem or router
with a pc modem router booster (cant post pictures incase its classed as advertising) and then there is the other way
which when i find it on my one of my usb sticks ill send it to you

knotaclu yep this seems to be pretty good http://www.irishisptest.com/login.php?meh=0
ithink i have the same set up as you (eir-con)my service seems to be all over the shop,my quality of service can go anywhere between 1% and 96% (depending peak or off peak)which shows that youre connection is unable to provide a constant stream of data.
this is key to providing a high quality voice over -ip connection,so sound is likely to be broken hence freeze play freeze play etc.i am going to try one of those usb mobile connections for better success.

cheers to all.......

Jackooh....Eircon is normally pretty stable you shouldn`t be getting those size fluctuations,If you get a chance,go online and update your network drivers,also are you using the wireless internet while watching?or are you using the rj45 lead?
Maybe need to clean out your temp files E.T.C.
just maybe your wireless signal is blocked by the positioning of the modem.Don`tbuy any usb mobie adapter,we will have you up and running by saturday. : ) !

Well the lads have given some good info on this thread which you could try.
Maybe click around & you might find a decent feed on that connection (or pay the extra spondulicks & boost your connection while N3 gets cracked up!).

P.S Ron Jeremey's jocks are nearly up full-time these days I reckon (unless he brings a couple of "fluffers" with him) - the old codger!!!
