Tivo app not playing nice with Airport Express
Service is ATT U-Verse with Pace 3800HGV-B modem/router which with b/g wifi. Airport Express (MC414LL / A1392) 'n' access point plugs into 3800. Cisco gig switch plugs into Express. Tivo Bolt plugs into switch.
Express is configured for DHCP with IP range that doesn't conflict with the 3800, and with 5 GHz network enabled. The 5 GHz network is selected on the phone.
Tivo's wifi is not used, turned off.
I get 8 mbps speed test from phone to the internet. The phone shows 150 mbps "link" (5GHz) to the Airport Express.
Streaming video from Hulu, Netflix, et. al. (using browser on the phone) is smooth and trouble-free. But when I try to stream video from the TiVo to the Tivo app on the phone all I get is stuttering video/audio. Usually it's instant when I start playing a video, but sometimes it plays fine for as much as 20 or 30 seconds before stuttering.
The Tivo app can control the Tivo Bolt without issue. It's only when playing a video from the Bolt that is less-than-stellar (to understate).
Inconceivably, TiVo tech support says that the cause is the 2wire 3800HGV-B router. But neither the wireless signal nor the ethernet stream go through the '3800, does it? The path is from TiVo -> switch -> Airport and to the phone. AND streaming video from web sites (i.e., Netflix) goes through the '3800 smoothly. I don't see how the '3800 is involved at all.
I really want to figure out what is the culprit in this setup. Any observations, suggestions or help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
