Can't Open MPEG File

I have the ProStation Duo (LS-WTGL/R1) with a Web Access Share folder thats set up properly. I can access photos and wmv files but cannot open a 5.1GB mpeg file remotely.

The file opens locally on the network, however I can't open it remotely!

Any suggestions?

Can you down load it, then open it?  The file may be to big to stream to you PC

NO-

It says the HTTP address is improper and cannot download.

It is the same as the other videos I have though.

Any Help?

   When you say that you can open the file locally are you using the Web Access interface or not? Streaming a 5gig file over the internet will require a large upstream on your cable/DSL modem. Most ISP cap their upload speed to 1Mbps. If you can open the file properly using Web Access from within your network then I would suspect it's either a speed issue or your web browser is having issues trying to work with such a large file. Have you tried a different browser? Have you tried to power cycle the device?
