Streaming Video on Tilt (AT&T 3G Network)

Carie · Joined: 07 Nov 2007 Posts: 2

Everytime I go to a streaming site on my Pocket PC, Windows Media Player 10
opens and attempts to start the streaming. I then get the following message:
'Cannot find the file. The file might have been moved, renamed, or deleted.
If the file is stored on a server or a removable storage card, the server or
card might not be available.'

I was told that it was probably because my connection is less than 150 kb/s,
but I find it hard to believe that this is the case with the 3G network.
However, if I connect my phone via ActiveSync, I will get a connection - but
most of the times I get an error saying the server is busy.

Does anyone know why this may be happening?

Well you can dispel the speed question at
http://text.dslreports.com/mspeed?jisok=1 That's dsl reports for mobile.
With the 3G you will probably be told it is too fast after you try the
biggest download, and then it will offer bigger files. On my Tilt I'm
showing 500-600Kbps.

I've tried the dslreports several times. Everytime I run it, I get a quick
message flash that says: 'Your browser does not fully support javascript'.
And I don't get any report of the speed. Is there a way to update the java?

Did you try the link I included? Don't think it uses any java like the big
brother. This is pretty much a text version

I have an AT&T Tilt and have the same issue. I tried setting up my own stream
on my wireless LAN to test whether it's a speed issue. It is not. I have
tried various internet resources as well. I get the same error message you
are getting about the file not being found. I can't find anything on this
error message or how to fix it.
