Only if you have a very very fast upload speed:-)

Getting 8mb at the moment sometimes 9mb download is 100mb but that does not matter I guess.

Ok well try logging into your web interface, just replace your routers IP address with your service providers IP address, ie instead of http://192.168.0.10:80 or whatever your router has assigned to the Vu box, use http://service providers ip address here:80, doubt you will be able to stream HD content a 8MB, SD might be enough, give it a go and see.
I can access my web interface from work, but my upload speed is dire so it doesnt work for me.

Thanks for that you mentioned "service providers IP address" is that the ip address of my Vu+duo box? which I can see in the Network section menu?

Hi Thanks for your help. I have another question is there a way to secure this with a password and username? because who ever will have my ip can watch the channels so I want to secure this if possible?

Hi,
if your upload is not fast enough search for Muuta or Restream but these need a PC running all the time to do the reencoding.

For it to work anywhere near properly for full bandwidth streaming (streaming direct from the Duo) you are going to need at least a 5mbs upload speed for SD channels and 20mbs for HD channels.

Or you can use a PC to reduce the bandwidth (and quality) as explained in the tutorial (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?3643-Guide-to-stream-your-VU-Duo-over-the-WEB-using-VLC).

Ive got a 10mb upload and a few hd channels stream perfect. But when on an ipad or iphone or laptop the screens arent that big so an SD picture is near perfect for viewing
