Unlikely a new router would help. Faster is a moot point because the only way to get "faster" WiFi is to go to an N based router but your SB players are all G based. Your problem is more likely signal quality, not speed.
Is your server computer wired to the router? Tried the receivers closer to the router to test if a stronger signal solves the issue? Tried some basic WiFi tweaks and making sure you are not getting WiFi interference from other WiFi's around you? Some very basic WiFi tweaks..... (#3 does not apply to your network) ___Router Administration Basics (1-5 require admin access to your router): 1. use a unique SSID name (name of your network/router) 2. if using a G WiFi: set WiFi to G only (turns off a & b modes) 3. if using an N WiFi: set to G Compatibility mode (if using G devices) 4. change the broadcast channel to the least used channel near you (see *) 5. choose only channels 1 or 6 or 11 ___Physical (location) 6. router and WiFi antenna orientation adjustments can help signal strength 7. try to locate the router as “central” to the home as possible, keeping in mind length & width & height 8. keep router away from other electronic devices (cordless phones, ISP modem, computers) ___Simple Maintenance 9. reboot WiFi router every once in a while (once a month is usually sufficient) * If your WiFi network card software already gives the ch numbers and the signal strength of all nearby networks, that's all you need. But there are free programs like NetStumbler if needed. -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91998
