I'm confused! (so what's new?)
My Acer Aspire laptop runs the little dedicated internet radio application I found quite recently with no problems at all when I run it at home. There it has an ADSL connection with something between 3Mb/s and 4Mb/s.
However when I try it here (in France) using the WiFi service here it's completely useless, i.e. it produces about one second in five of actual sound.
The bandwidth here is quite good though, the BBC iPlayer bandwidth check (which should be vaguely relevant as I'm trying to listen to the BBC) tells me:-
Download speed: 1778 kbps Streaming speed 1: 1512 kbps Streaming speed 2: 1958 kbps Streaming speed 3: 1122 kbps
Which the BBC says isn't quite enough for HD TV (!) but should manage anything else - all I want is a single radio channel!
Does a lower connection speed require a faster processor to keep up or should I be looking somewhere else for what's causing the totally broken up internet radio here?
