OK, running 2 classic SB3 off a Win7 PC server. Seem to always have
problems connecting to server after a power down or sleep. Was running
7.5.4, then updated to 7.6.2 ... that caused a continuous 'rebuffering'
every 5 or 10 seconds, so rolled back. The SB3's have two different
firmwares - one is
Ideally it should be the other way around wired server ?
what if server goes to sleep wifi may be disconnected ?
Player can send WOL (wake on lan) to wake a sleeping server but that
only works if the server is wired, there is almost no wifi cards that
supports WOL.
So if the server goes to sleep
Of course an all wired or mixed setup is also good , I have wired server
3 wired players and one wifi player one controller and one iPad

Also, have you used something like netstumbler or vistumbler to see what
other wifi networks are nearby and the channels they are using? You
should use a channel that is not in use nearby if possible to prevent
wifi interference

if you're having buffering problems, it is not likely related to the use
of 7.6.x. There's something else going on. I doubt 7.7 would solve this
issue for you and I wouldn't recommend using it yet as your main server
