The Little Guy Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I have 3 computers connected to the same router and internet. - My fastest computer is connected by an Ethernet cable (furthest from router 50+ ft) - My next fastest computer is wireless, and usually has about 2-3 bars. - My least fastest computer is connected by Ethernet, and is closest to the router (> 2ft) Where I notice the speed difference is when I am watching movies on my site. I stream ~15MB movies. On the slow computer the video plays faster than it loads. On the other two the video has finished in about the first 10-20 seconds of playback. All this streaming has taken place with only ONE computer online and playback time. What could be the problem?

akitchin Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 your "least fastest" machine is a POS, perhaps? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/136151-video-streaming/#findComment-710138 Share on other sites More sharing options...

peranha Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 is you "least fastest" machine only running at 10X instead of 100X? Full duplex? or half duplex? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/136151-video-streaming/#findComment-710145 Share on other sites More sharing options...
akitchin Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 your "least fastest" machine is a POS, perhaps? Wow, that was very...brusque. =P Nice way to put it though. well, it just seems like the most obvious conclusion is that it's clearly the fault of the machine and not the connection. i used to have plenty of issues with laggy videos on my older machine for a variety of reasons, all related to the computer itself.
