I am (not ReplayTV, just regular HiDef), and my experience is pretty much the same. Solid
~23Mbps assuming the wind's 
blowing in the right direction (D-Link gear ... forget even trying the 108Mbps support, it
flat out doesn't work for me)
, but it's still not stable enough. Watching the ping times to the AP whilst streaming and
it'll run fine for a while, 
but then the ping-time will drop-off for a couple of seconds, CinemaSix will stutter, and
it's game over.

802.11b is just a non-starter for this. IIRC you'll be lucky to sustain 5-6Mbps over that.

Cheers, Carl.
