Hey guys, so I recently upgraded my internet connection and have quite a decent upload speed now. Not enough to stream 1080p movies but definitely enough for most TV Shows.
Right now I have tested it locally in my country and my friend was able to stream to his XBMC box using Samba, but internationally it seems its too slow in terms of accessing the files and folders. So I was wondering for anyone here who has tried this, what would be the best way to stream my media internationally so I can access my media while not being in the country?
Btw the slowness with samba has nothing to do with upload speed because if the user tries to download the file, it downloads at my full upload speed, its just when trying to stream or access folders through samba that its really slow.
