All of which is great, BUT IT WOULD BE TERRIBLY USEFUL if Nokia bothered to give advice on getting the videos loading over Wi-Fi. All videos currently time out on my N95, whilst Rafe has no problems on his, with identical settings.

My videos play fine on Nokia N95 Video Centre over Wifi using a Belkin 54g router model F5D7230-4 with latest firmware.
Don't worry Steve, mine times out too. If I'm lucky I can get the streaming link saved to the phone and then connect using the link from the gallery, but that only works if I get the vid link through a web page. It's almost as annoying as not being able to save file formats that the browser doesn't recognise - eg files that the DIVX player runs.
