How to improve Wireless streaming?

If possible, use a Wi-Fi N router. Wi-Fi N routers have the highest bandwidth for wireless
If possible, place your player and router in the same room
Allow as few obstructions as possible between your player and router. Obstructions can be walls, metallic objects, and reflective surfaces
Place your router and player about 1.5 meters above the floor. Sometimes this improves wireless performance
If a wall separates your player and router, place them less than five meters apart
When devices and routers share a wireless channel, the bandwidth is reduced. On your PC, scan your wireless network for other devices and routers. (You can use a free Wi-Fi network scanner from the Internet.) Configure your router to use a channel that is least used
If your router allows 20/40 channel bonding, use it
Keep cables away from the Wireless USB Adapter connected to your player
With the Wireless USB Adapter, use the supplied USB extender cable
