I found that going from wireless to wired improved things somewhat (less rebuffering), which is why I now keep my SB3 tethered. I found that if I turned the microwave on (or sent negative vibes to anyone, etc.), wireless mode would be interrupted. Another advantage of the wired method is that the unit is much more responsive. Following some of the previous posts, I tried the network test. It showed a continuous 100% at the highest transfer rate. I do find that 7.3.3 is better about rebuffering than the previous version (though that might be attributable to the ethernet connection). It doesn't happen very often, but when it does, it's a pain in the @ss. Resetting the unit doesn't fix it. I'd rather not reinstall the system software for my Readynas if I can avoid it - especially when the benefits of doing so are uncertain. I plan at this point to remove the few resident programs that are running on the NAS and see if that helps. If the rebuffering continues, I'll be reinstalling 7.2.1 once again. I'd be interested to know what changed about the Squeezecenter software after 7.2.1 to make rebuffering such a problem for so many people.
