5.3 Bandwidth Estimation
The frame rate of video transmitted from the device depends on connection
bandwidth between client and server, video resolution, codec type, and quality setting
of server. Here is a guideline to help you roughly estimate the bandwidth requirements
form your device.
The required bandwidth depends on content of video source. The slow motion video
will produce smaller bit rate generally and fast motion will produce higher bit rate vice
versa. Actual results generated by the device may be varying.

Note:
Audio streaming also takes bandwidth around 32kbps. Some xDSL/Cable
modem upload speeds could not even reach up to 128 kbps. Thus, you may not
be able to receive good quality video while also streaming audio on a 128 kbps
or lower connection. Even though the upload speed is more than 128kbps, for
optimal video performance, disabling audio streaming will get better video
performance.
