    Default HELP!!

    I contacted my internet provider they said i have the fastest one already. Well i keep lagging when on cam. My upload speed is .4 and i need atleast a .6. so my provider said they could open up a portal to streamate. Does anyone know that portal ive tried to contact streamate but they just say mam this is customer service not for models( was extrememly rude in her voice)... can anyone help me out?

    Christ - are you in the UK? I know that the upload speeds there are CRAP.

    I would check around some other providers, to see if you can get a better speed elsewhere, because .4 is just awful.....

    I don't know anything about portals, but you might try e-mailing SM (they don';t have a phoneline for models...)

    I would suggest to just get a new provider, maybe even look at business account if the personal account upload speed is low, they usually have a little better speeds... If you are serious about camming, it is well worth the investment... (Speaking from experience)

    I had another thought - if you just get this portal thing to SM, what happens when you feel like working another site for a day, or want to do some skype shows? It seems like finding a better provider or a business account would make more sense...

    Sorry to hear about your upload speeds, those are atrocious. Outside of where you may be geographically located, if you're using a DSL provider, try to switch to cable ISP immediately. DSL upload speeds are abysmal.

    Also, the customer support number for Streamate is in fact for customer support. For model support, you'll need to either fill out one of the contact forms on the website or email [email protected] and include all the information the ISP provided you about the solution offered to you.

    I just tested mine. I do great camming regular, but have never been able to get the encoder on SM to work. It works just is really laggy and freezes. I did upgrade to the highest my ISP provides. 12mps. Or somthing like that. Here is my speedtest. Download: 15.45 Mbps Upload: 0.64 So what does this mean for me? Should I get a business account with my ISP? Will that help with the encoder?

    BabyLove you have a decent connection by the sounds of it. You should be able to ask your ISP to uncap your upload speed which should improve it somewhat, altough you will still be better off with cable if you can get it.

    taylor my upload is .4 too and sm is just not really an option for me to any decent level. Sure i get shows, but not many because placement is so low due to not being able to use the encoder etc. Get cable if you can, or use another site, or use sm as you are, but don't expect to be able to keep regulars for long or improve your placement x
