</div>We've got a bunch of wireless networks in my area, but I've been able to<br>
stream 3 SD recordings all at the same time all to wireless frontends....all<br>
without any hickups. The backend is connected via cable to the wireless<br>
router. Don't have HD, so don't know.<br>

I found that installing DD-WRT on an old Linksys WRT54G router and cranking the wireless signal from 22mW to 200mW solved my problems - Everything streamed like a charm with no issues. Granted, who knows if I'm breaking FCC regs, and I'm probably getting cancer, but at least I can watch House in my bedroom! :-) <br>
