Excessive buffering, and/or delay in connectivity may occasionally occur for some 56k modem users and is invariably due to either stressed network capacity at your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or other Internet-hungry applications on your machine. It is worth bearing in mind the following:

1. Many Internet users are probably dialled-in to your ISP, and this can cause congested lines and use up most or all of the bandwidth. If you are accessing our services through a Local Area Network (LAN), you may experience similar problems as a result of the number of users and/or PCs on your LAN.

2. This condition is almost always temporary, and if you try back later, you will usually experience better results.

3. You may also experience these types of problems when your computer's resources are limited. Try not to run other applications whilst accessing streaming media.
