My Satellite Setup
80cm and 1m motorised dishes, 30w to 53e. DM500 and DM800. Server running MS Server 2008. Freenas NAS. Custom built desktop PC and 2 x laptops all running Windows 7.
My Location
Staffordshire, UK
I have a DM800 using CS via Wifi. I'm using a Belkin G+ wireless router for my wifi and a Linksys WET54G wireless bridge for the Dreambox. The only problems I have are with the Spanish Canal+ channels on 19.2 which freeze occasionally. Everything else is ok, even Sky using NDS. I think the freezing issues are down to the Belkin wireless router which I want to replace but haven't got around to yet.

Bog-standard Sky minidish with a Dreambox DM800HD S.

I too use my DM800 over my WLAN. I have a USB dongle which I picked up for about a tenner. I did want to use homeplugs but I've run out of electrical sockets due to the number of devices scattered all around my TV.

I get occasional stuttering using c/s via WLAN, but I think it's due to the server I connect to rather than my method of connecting to the network.

However, my Access Point is in the same room as my DreamBox. If your's are separated and your signal isn't very strong then you may get different results.

DM500S with Zone 2 on Moteck 2100
My Location
Portsmouth
My own server runs on an Acer Aspire Revo powered by an intel Atom (dirt cheap on the electricity!).

Even the Dreamboxes are on wireless and my ECMs are down in the 200s. I think it;s all to do with your internet connection and the signal strength of anything connected. I do get freezes, but mainly when the weather is bad and the signal quality drops away as the router is far from the server.
