Is there are way for dialup listers to listen? Some people on dialup have told me they get kicked off and stuff.

Any tips>?

Dial-up listeners (56k modems) should be able to tune into a 24kbps stream ok.

Any other Internet activity while listening will probably cause buffering.

okay so run two servers right? I am very new at this. lol DO I have to encode two types (I think I would)

What would the links be -- I mean how would you make them different for different types of connections?

I am not doing this from my computer. I am doing it on a VPS. So the instructions are really for home computer users.

Hello Ravernews,

You are right. You have to run two different servers with different bitrates and use two encoders on the DSP, one for each bitrate.
