Does it work at home o ur home network? Also have you forwarded port 1200 in ur router so you can access the duo externally? Also whats ur upload download speed?

Thanx for the reply mate,

I have forwarded port 12000 in my router and can confirm this works externally. i did manage a few months ago to get it to work in my house but i lost the data i put in so cant get it to work again

As far as i remember.. you must use username and password ..

Username = root and Password should be the password you use to ftp your box..

hope this helps

you mentioned in your first post that you already had a dyndns account


host or ip address - b******.dyndns.org

you need to use that and make sure it is either setup on ur router so it updates your ip address to your dyndns account

One thing i forgot to mention is you might have a few problems streaming externally mainly due to upload/download speeds. Whats yours? You might want to consider something along the lines of slingbox. Google it and read up on it as its pretty decent and i think one or 2 people here have it and it just streams at a lower rate than stay streaming directly from ur box
