Great information but I just want to note that although your problem was WiFi related if you are on a cable system, since it's shared with everyone in you area, at peak times you could get some buffering. The cable companies are not upgrading the cable infrastructure so as more people stream, buffering is more of a concern. That said, if you can get fiber internet, that will solve the buffering problem because it's a dedicated system.
