Here’s my 5 cents (euro) worth of observations:
Setup:
* Windows XP
* No problem with 1586
* 1673 has the same problem that belu reports
* Soundbridge reports 99% WiFi signal, and WMP streams WAVs OK, so the connection is not suspect.
* There is a machine B with a 100mbps wired connection, connection tested using FTP transfers, line speed known to be good.
Observations:
* FF streaming a file locally (wget http://localhost:9999/rsp/stream/7254) runs at 3.6 M/Sec, no pauses.
* FF streaming to machine B gets me 160K/s, not enough to serve uncompressed audio.
* FF streaming to machine B via an SSH tunnel to machine A gets me a respectable 1.8 M/Sec
It appears to me that, for some reason, FF streams very slowly to the network interface, at least compared to the speed when streaming to the local interface.
After rolling back to 1586, I get 5M/s+ on both the local and the remote interface.
Can anyone recreate the above test? Any other testing/information that I may provide?
Thanks,
Michael
