Hello,
This is happening sporadically since the firmware update.
I have plusnet IPTV and for the last couple of days whenever I am recording IPTV or viewing it the wifi is knocked out.
Plus the user interface is very slow.
Any ideas as to what is happening and also can you provide me the stock firmware to test to see if this is just happening just with the new firmware.
Rick.

Try enabling 'Wireless Multicast Forwarding (WMF)' on both bands (2.4ghz and 5ghz)

My network is similar to this thread posted here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3288845?tstart=0billion_fan wrote:Try enabling 'Wireless Multicast Forwarding (WMF)' on both bands (2.4ghz and 5ghz)
Essentially, I use the apple time capsule (TC) in bridge mode as my wifi network and the TC is connected to the Billion via ethernet. I originally thought the TC was broken and I started using the Billion's wifi - but after the IPTV had either stopped recording or I turned the channel to a regular channel (BBC 1 for example) - the wifi was up again.
I have since re-entered all the information to activate IPTV since posting the original problem and will monitor it again.
