tony fenek said: I have recently switched from Cox to Verizon FIOS and connected my Slingbox Pro to a Motorola QIP6416/2. I am now experiencing problems with receiving a steady audio and video stream rate.  When I am at home (in the US) I noticed that my stream rate flactuates between 500kbps to 3000kbps, and therefore I am still able to sling without any noticeable problems.  The problem is when I am travelling (in Europe mainly) and the stream rate flactuates between 116kbps and 700kbps. This is causing an interruption in my audio and video reception every 3 to 5 minutes.  Eventualy the connection freezes and I need to reconnect.  Once I reconnect I go through the same cycle every 3 to 5 minutes. I never had this problem before with Cox, and I thought that by switching to Verizon I would be improving remote viewing.  This does not seem to be the case. Does anyone have any suggestions or been through this experience?

I had the exact same problem and here was MY solution but you should read the entire string I am linking to this message.

2. For me, ROUTER was definately the problem. Once I changed the port from 5001 to 441 and Create a new rule for both TCP and UDP. My problems were OVER. This was with a FIOS ActionTech Rounter from verison.

3. I am always talking about REMOTE viewing, not at home. Never had an issure with home network viewing as I get 6-7000 KBPS at home. But REMOTE viewing now that my router is fixed, I get an average of 400-1200KPBS depending on the broadband offered to me. Ususally the broadband is 1.5/1/5 Up/Down when I messure it with speakeasy speed test.
