How do I know what the best speed is for my particular scenario? I watch remotely from two different kind of connections. Both of which I can change the settings in Webcam Monitor before I head to that particular location.

The cam is located at my house, and I have a cable connection that is around is 5MB(download)x384k(upload).

The locations I connect FROM:

1- Cable modem via a network...doing a speed test I'm around the same 5MB download, but 512k (upload).
What would be my best option for my profile here using a about the same connection as I have at home?

2- DSL which is only on one computer, and the speed test reavealed around 384k(download) and 128k(upload).
What would be my best option for my profile when connecting via DSL?

Yes, Gracias! You are right, that works.

I can only view my cam within my network using 192.168.xxx.xxx:80.

I can only view my cam outside of my network using the dyndns.org.

Flawless!

So I verified what my IP is, logged into the dyndns.com. However instead of viewing mms or https://192.168.xxx.xxx:80 I read in a post I'm supposed to view mms or https://something.dyndns.com:80 - however it is that I set it up. Is this only viewable outside my network, or should I be able to view it inside my network as well? I can't view it inside for sure...

When I start monitoring WebCam Monitor says
'Streaming started. Open the URL mms://192.168.xxx.xxx:80 in Internet Explorer or the URL https://192.168.xxx.xxx:80 in Windows Media Player...
This works...but I know only in my network, so I'm assuming it is set up right.

More questions later.
