    The best is to be hard wire.There is no way of beating that. I think the next best thing would be power line adapters.Or a router flashed with dd-wrt.Which i have used and worked flawless.

    If you get freezing etc. when using wifi, but no freezing using Ethernet cable, you have a reception problem that can be caused by many things.

    But you should confirm the cause of the problem first.

    Try a couple open IPTV channels (207- CBS News, 227- AlJazeera, 202- Bloomberg, etc.).
    *If these channels play without any Freezing, the problem is not your STB or Routers wifi.

    You can also try using another application, like Perfect Player, which is a smaller, less resource heavy, application.
    This would require you to make a custom playlist from a template, if you have an account with a MAC#.
