Well, at one point in debugging a wireless problem I was having, I found what I think is the same symptom as you - internet radio plays ok, streaming FLACs from the server giving lots of dropouts.
I eventually traced the problem to a faulty wireless router. Swapped it for a new one, never looked back. I assumed that the difference is due to the much lower data rate you need to sustain for internet radio vs FLAC. One way of testing this theory (other than another router or WAP!) might be to temporarily force transcoding to a low bit rate MP3 (dare I say that in an "audiophile" board ?!)
