The speed needed depends on the quality of the source but you probably need around 33kbps for relible results. Quality is likely to be better when the net is not busy. Jetstream will give you streaming video and audio but at a cost.	Guest (0)

Programs like Realplayer give you the option to increase the buffer size - View/Preferences/Connection, & increase the buffer of bits stored before playing. WinMedia probably has this option too, but haven't checked. Also always try to stream from sites close to home eg OZ & NZ as these will generally be faster expecially at the less busy times of the day as mentioned above.	Guest (0)
