I feel your pain. There are times I run into that exact problems too.  My guess is it may be the wireless router though.  Its probably too slow to stream video especially HD video.

I only have 3mp running on DSL at my old place and never slow me down or anything.  I had to change to u-verse for internet at the new house and still work fine.  They upgrade it free to me from 3mp to 6mp when I add cable but I hate att cable so went back to comcast.  Told them to give me back my 3mp.  Now I only used my ipad and other device with wifi in the house while my desktop still waiting to get a new power supply or buy new desktop.  Going to have to convinced my husband to allowed buying a new computer this week.

Lucky me. There is usually a WiFi party at my house on the weekends with 8+ people. Hardly slows down. And that's including gaming and streaming videos.

Most of the time restarting the modem and computer helps.
