pointless actually, given the bandwidth required for streaming.  it's latency and buffering that matters.  This has been discussed plenty on forums already.

not a bug, however.  marking as enhancement.

Will consider for a future hardware release.

Sorry, I missed the dedicated forum, when I did a search before posting this feature request. Would you be s kind to provide the link to it?

How about the case when having a living space 99+ square meter (like mine happen to be recently),thick walls and 7+ home networking wlan device all around? One Vigor router in the entrance and without cabling and installing amplifier antennas (which render my home look like a weather station), structured wlan data transfer and increased throughput would benefit streaming I think.

 802.11g from distance is only 1MB/s compare to 54MB/s and here we not even talk to Bluetooth and other neigbourgh wlan routers. In fact, in a block of flat 12-16 channel is not much and interference can get significant. People use Apple airport express nowadays, which has significant presence on networks.

But even in my own room, when I open a Macbook Pro, the web radio of HP Pavilion's Vista got a volume down. When squeezebox is play my favourite internet radio, you can bet that me and my partner laptop both play youtube videos received from friends lately. So 802.11g for streaming is ok, but squeezebox is not home alone...

All new Squeezebox products are likely to be based on the SqueezePlay platform.
We do not plan to implement any further enhancements to the ip3k firmware or
which are targeted specifically at ip3k-based products.
