ATV 2 won't stop buffering

Legacy 2nd gen Apple TV
#1

I am streaming content from a HD connected to an airport extreme (a 720p mkv) and the video constantly buffers.  It is inconsistent happening every 5-8 minutes.  I have never had streaming problems in the past until the most recent update.  Over the last weekend, I updated my atv2 with the most recent redsn0w jailbreak and most recent AVT Flash Black OS (2.0.2).

Netflix streams HD just fine and if I run the video from airplay mirroring (off my macbook air), things are fine as well.  My only conclusion is to assume something is up with the way the new software buffers.  I rebooted the ATV via the Maintenance/Settings menu but to no avail.

Any thoughts?

Ok, so I may have found a workaround.  I changed the access type for the Hard Disk on my Airport Extreme from “Airport with password” to “Disk Password”.

I am watching a movie right now and it hasn’t buffered in over an hour.  I’m not sure why this would make a difference but it seems to right now.  I’ll keep this thread posted if anything comes up.
