Streaming

I'm looking for some advice please.

We have a fibre installation which tests at approx. 23mb download. To my mind this should be more than capable of streaming videos online. However, even now, when the line is probably least used, we still can't watch things properly. We are trying to watch the live Mexican feed from azteca.com but it goes may 10 seconds before buffering, making it completely impractical to watch.

We have the stream on a dedicated machine that runs nothing else, and so I'm looking for some things to try to make this stream properly. Any help would be appreciated.

Wired or wireless?

wireless

url for a stream ?

maybe it's just a [censored] site

The URL is http://www.azteca.com/envivo/losdel7/751/index it's defo not porn, if that was what the censored bit was, it's Mexican tv. We specifically want to watch the Mexican football on azteca deportes, but the in-laws want to watch daytime tv too

In Reading? I'm in Northampton and it works just fine, to a degree anyway.

Why not? I better things to do than faff around with Linux and umbutu. I want to watch the channel not spend time configuring the os.

In reference to www.azteca.com/envivo/losdel7/751/index:

We're sorry, this content is only available in certain countries.

Northampton must be another country .

I mean why post in Windows forum? It's nowt to do with your OS.

Ah me too now. I think it's because of the program being shown. Usually it's fine.

Sorry, I thought you meant why windows per se. Is this not the correct forum then? I figured, windows problem, post here. Where should it go?

that's an index, not a stream URL. The censored bit was my suggestion that the site might be rubbish, rather thna your connection.
