Apple TV 1 and Apple TV2 both streaming and syncing very slowly
Hi
Just wondering if anyone can help. After a long time of not being able to get either product to work (Bonjour would not work until the latest update), I now can finally use my old ATV1 and new ATV2. I can play music and use my photos on the screen saver fine. BUT playing any TV programmes or movies is almost impossible - very slow period whilst it is 'loading library' then when I finally get to the programme, it takes 15 minutes before the programme will stream enough so it will start playing.
Movie trailers are also slow to load. I haven't tried to stream a rented movie yet as I have no confidence of being able to watch it all.
Also, the ATV2 keeps dropping the wifi connection so I have to constantly reenter the password.
Third, I have never managed to get both Apple TVs working at the same time - if I switch one on when the other is on, it knocks out the connection.
Finally, the ATV1 seems to take an age to syc content onto the machine.
I've tried the main troubleshooting options with no luck.
The connection is over wifi, from a base station upsatairs to the room beneath. Signal is 2-3 bars out of 5 and works on everything else. The router is Netgear WNR-2000. Our internet is 30Mbps fibre optic.
I really like Apple TV when it works (enough to buy ATV2, when I was having problems with ATV1, go figure) but I have been having problems with it altogether now for over a year! Pl
AppleTV 2, Updated with latest software
