[QUOTE="halo200, post: 1373921, member: 37684"] I've noticed the same thing when I have the airport express running on my network at home. For some reason it was bringing everything to a screaming halt and while a device was streaming audio, internet access just went splat! Now the network at home is a little more over the top than most so I had more options available to me so I ended up shifting the airport express onto its own VLAN and creating a wireless network mapped to that VLAN which separated the problem so I still have a functioning network on one side but the one with the airport on it still doesn't work right. Problem here is the only way to stream media is to be on the same network which has almost no internet access :( so its kinda irritating nonetheless At least im not the only one having issues with it.
