Myself, no... So i resorted to hardwiring the PC through my house socket circuit, keeping the PS3 on wifi and it resolved the issue of skipping and stopping.

Unless you're using 802.11 n, you're going to have buffer issues. You're going to need to hardwire it with a cat 5 cable

Unfortunately not, I'm using wireless N and im still getting buffer issues even at lower resolutions.

Dang... Well that sucks. You possibly getting any interference? I know my buddy has his network using wireless N (I haven't upgraded mine yet). And He hasn't had any issues when I've been there to see it, although it has only been a few times that I've been there to see him try to stream it.

Its set to scan, and I've replaced all the phones in my house with DECT interference free headsets.

You may want to read up on DLNA = Digital Living Network Alliance. This is one of it's main functions. BTW, PS3 does not support wireless N. If you have a N router that is working with your PS3 it is because your router also broadcast in G.

My ps3 is wired over a gigabit connection using cat6. It is the computer thats operating over wireless N.

To quote the excellent Norwegian academic and research network, UNINETT: "Transmitting the data is not just burping out a bunch of signals on the air. A strict set of rules is governing the way a transmission should behave (CSMA/CA). First the sender has to wait a period of DIFS (Distributed Coordination Function InterFrame Space) time of 50 Usec before the channel is presumed clear of traffic. Then a Data Frame or a Request to Send frame can be sent. The receivers answer to this is with an ACK or Clear To Send, accordingly. The receiver has to wait a SIFS (Short InterFrame Space) time of 10 Usec before this reply is sent."
Anybody who describes ordinary Wi-Fi as carrying 11 megabits per second is, technically, correct. But the payload on 802.11b is half that; 5 megabits - and that's shared amongst all users. Also, the rate drops as you move away from the access point; 802.11b drops back to one megabit when the signal gets weak.
As a rule of thumb, if you take the Wi-Fi standard bitrate, you can work out the payload easily enough by dividing by two. Rarely, it will be faster; usually, a lot less. Put two access points on the same channel in the same area, and it can be so much less you may even wonder if you're connected.

You know what, you must be absolutely right. Are there wireless bridges used out for N networks yet? Either that, or my buddy just has it wired. I never really thought about it. I know he has a N network, and without thinking, assumed his ps3 is also wirelessly connected to it (using the N protocol).
