360 Wireless Streaming Issues

Posted: May 2, 2010, 11:24 pm

I've been using Windows Media Player 11 to stream some high quality xvid files from my computer to my 360, and it seems to need to buffer every 5-10 minutes or so, and it is kind of a pain in the ass. Anyone else have issues like this? Are there any settings I could change anywhere that might help? Do you think switching to a wireless-N router (I have the wireless-N adapter on my 360, but only a wireless-G router) would help, or is it more likely the hard drive in my PC or 360? Any ideas?

1080p over g is more than it can handle in my experience...

Okay, cool, I'll order a new router and see if that helps. Thanks!
