Browser Compatibility Matrix (Recommended)

You will need a current version of Web browser software in order to access the streaming video and the appropriate plugins.

Firewalls

A firewall is a system designed to protect private networks from unauthorized access. Depending on how a firewall is set up, it might block or affect the quality of streaming videos.

Firewalls can exist for a group of computers (like in an office department), and on an individual's computer. The firewall needs to allow streaming video to pass; often it is blocked. If the firewall is set up outside the individual's computer, the system administrator will be needed to open a port to allow streaming video. In case of a personal computer/laptop, when a pop-up message with "allow" and "block" button appears informing you that your computer's firewall blocks the content  of a webpage, just click the "allow" button.

Connection Speed

Higher connection speeds are needed for most video (DSL or better). It is possible to stream video at 56Kbps, but the window size is small and the image and motion quality is poor.

The more bandwidth required by a streaming file, the more likely network congestion problems will occur.

Better quality is possible with higher bandwidths, but maintaining that bandwidth for an extended period can be a problem.
