I currently have a file server on my network that holds all my movies and video. It's connected to my DIR-655 router. I have a computer upstairs and a laptop, one is on wireless-G and the laptop is on wireless-N. My problem is is that when playing video through Windows Media Center it becomes very choppy on both the computer and laptop but when play on my wired connection they play fine.
I checked the bandwidth and on the wired comupter it plays at a constant 4-10 Mbps. when I play it on the wireless connections it will play at 4-10 Mbps for a while then drop to basically 0 Mbps and that's when it becomes choppy.
I'm sort of stumped here. Is it that my computer and laptop are dropping their connection? Both have the file server as a mapped hard drive.
