CM6000 is connected to Roku box in basement. I am noticing that after initial few days of resetting connection, the speed goes down a lot. Any advise?

I notice my internet speeds lower if I use the cm but it's still pretty fast. Try rebooting both of them. Unplug plug back in etc

Should not need to buffer very much (except when switching stations). I am on slowish DSL also.

I have also been having problems with my roku player. My boyfriend got it for me for christmas and it constantly cuts off my shows. I have tried restarting it and my network with no success. I have had this issue with Netflix, and crackle. My Netflix on my computer and my phone works fine wirelessly but the roku acts up all the time. I can't remember the last time I watched a show or movie for more than 10 minutes before I was kicked off back to my menu screen. I will try plugging in the ethernet directly and see if that works, but I am very disappointed and I feel chagrined for my boyfriend that this Christmas gift is essentially kaput!

After a few months of perfect service my Squeezebox is suddenly losing its WiFi connection. Nothing else in the house is having that problem, so I assume it's this device. I've connected it via Ethernet cable, will see if this works better. I have the latest update, will keep an eye on this discussion for hints or fixes. Thanks for posting your experiences!

Out of the box, this router doesn't work with ROKU. I have two, and have been happily using them for a year on my old router, and neither would connect to the Medialink. I was two seconds away from hitting the Amazon Return link, but decided to give the firmware update a try. With the new firmware, they connect just fine.Medialink support (Tyler): I think you are hurting your business with your response above. I've had no problems with ROKU wireless in the past. It was YOUR router with the out-of-the-box firmware. You'd serve your company better by owning up to the problem and advising people to do the upgrade.

The first thing is to determine if your Roku is a G radio or an N. This router may be set to WAP2 encryprion and AES networking. In the various forums people discuss getting N and older G devices to talk on the same networks. Some people have expressed changing the AES setting to another option, or being sure that WMM is enabled. Log onto the router and do a site survey to see what the router sees. Also see if your computer can see the signal. Are all devices in your network on the same channel number?

No, none at all. Occasionally I drop wifi stream but I think its my router doing that. What input are you using? HDMI ? I'm thinking it could be the cable. It is worth spending some $ for a good one.

I had the same issue, and tried powerline extenders which used your electrical outlets. After awhile the devices degraded and speed was like dial up. If you have COAX throughout your home look into Coax MOCA (multi media over coax)O adapaters. Much better speeds.

2015 and still having these troubles. Often takes 3 to 4 minites for netflix to load. Sometimes we have to stop and restrart multiple times. Planning to use ROKU and skip the hub altogether.

Not sure about the Roku's connections, but I'll tell you how my media server is connected. I put an hdmi adapter into the pc to send video to the TV, then sent the audio into the AUX input of the SC-BTT195. When I'm on the media server, I have to change the TV Audio input in the settings from ARC to AUX. It's a little clumsier than I like but it gets the job done and I have great video and audio.

I'm not sure, but I would think maybe not running fast speed enough to load without buffering alot? I have high speed through my satellite and have had no problems at all since my purchase. I am very happy with it. maybe check with your isp or the manufacturer.

I had such a problem with weak signals and disconnects with both the 2.4 and 5 signals that I returned the Netgear and purchased an ASUS RT-N66U. After a firmware update on the ASUS, I haven't had any problems connecting our phones, computers and Roku boxes to the ASUS.

Maybe. It depends on how capable is your Wifi router. I had the same problem with my router being upstairs. I ended up buying a new better router and it still didn't help. What I ended up doing is reconfiguring my original router as wireless access point and keeping it within about 20 feet from the Roku box. Now the streaming problem have disappeared with Netflix and Amazon VOD. Actually when you stream, the Roku box provides an indication (in terms of horizontal dots) of how good the signal strength is. If you get 3 or greater dots (maximum is 4), you have a good connection. The signal strength in the settngs menu also should say the strength is good or excellent (fair isn't good enough). I still have the stutter with IMAX and some other HiDef sites but I feel now this might be either a problem with these sites not being able to deliver HD traffic very well or my Comcast connection not being fast enough. I get &gt;5Mbps consistently though it ranges between 3-13Mbps. I recommend you check your internet BW limit on U-verse first. If you are getting less than 1.5Mbps you will have a stutter independent of your Wifi on Netflix. If you are getting &gt; 3Mbps then most likely it's your Wifi. Hope this helps.

I am using mine to stream roku and it works flawlessly. It has to do with signal strength. If you are getting a strong signal you should be fine. The web site and manual says 70 is optimum strength but I get 62 to 65 and my connection and speed re really great.

I haven't experienced that problem, although sometimes the Aquous-Link gets messed up and the TV and sound beome disconnected. I just reboot or restart the system and it solves the problem.

Hi Karl - I had the same experience but attributed it to my wireless router being on another floor. The stream rate was not enough to enjoy Netflix. When I connected the TV via the ethernet cable the problem disappeared. It could be an issue with the wireless router having insufficient connectivity at times. My other HDTV is not smart and connects thru a bluRay player with WIFI and sometimes its data rate is not good enough. Not a definitive answer I know but I hope this helps.

My folks have the same problem. AM interference. This unit or any other internet radio (with good reviews) is a good solution. Just make sure you set it up and update to the latest firmware. As long as you visit (and you should, lol) every so often to make sure its working right, it should be fine. Another low tech solution is a crane CC radio, which in my experience has superior AM reception. At my folks the issue was some sort of local interference creating a constant hum so CC radio would not help. All your mom would have to do is select the preset, tell her not to mess with the rest of the functions. If she will place it near her router anyways just hardwire it, and avoid some hassles. However I have this set up on the second floor with a dlink dir 655 in the basement and it works great.
