Does your stream stall?
With our new Premier and Linksys WRT300N router set to N only we're experiencing constant interruptions when streaming Netflix shows. Several times in a single half hour show it stops to buffer.
The Premier's wireless N adapter consistently shows two out of three bars. It's 15' away from the router through one interior wall and an armoire.
How can I ensure I'm getting maximum performance?

Go with a wired solution.

Maybe a better wireless router. And I'm not familiar with the TiVo Wireless N bridge, but I've had no issues with My Dlink Wireless N bridges(DAP1522)(2.4Ghz and 5Ghz) and Dlink wireless N access Points(DAP 1522)(The Dlink DAP1522 can be set for AP mode or Bridge mode)

I think that's a private matter, ha, ha!
Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Ha!
Anyone know of any benchmarking or tweaks on either end I could be doing?

Like someone said, go hard-wired - either run a long Cat 5 wire or consider MoCA.
If you are lucky enough to have FIOS, MoCA is built-in - you can use a NIM-100 or a MoCA router found on FleaBay.

I have my TiVo Premiere wired directly and it also stalls once in a while.
Running DSL reports test shows 12412Kbps down / 2063 Kbps up. I doubt it is the issue with the speed for me. But again, I don't know what the original poster is using and very well it may be his connection.

I just got my Tivo Premiere and the wireless N adapter last week. I have a DLink 655 G/N router. Wireless connection seems very slow as netfix and youtube vids stall every few minutes and are very pixelated. The adapter is only about 5 feet from the router. Same router feeds my Xbox 360 wireless G adapter with no stalls ever and great picture quality. Also my network connection seems to go down about once a day on Tivo. The connection light on the adapter stays lit (not flashing) but Tivo says no network connection. I have to power the adapter off and back on to restore connection. Since it is only 5 feet away, I might as well hardwire it to my router...what a shame.

Not a lot, often not at all during a show. But once and a while it will. On rare occasions I will get a "green line" glitch too.

I'm wired and it rarely ever stalls. Maybe once real quick every 7-8 shows or so.
