Couple of points here.
If you don't have devices working simultaneously on your network then
its hard to draw comparisons with the Stream, I mean if its the only
device you have then you're probably over the moon that the Stream can
download anything at all!
As for your super fast network?

As to slow downloading of data, I have noticed with ours, and those of some

when I'm close to my router, it usually says that reception is poor.

wifi is much stronger. Soon it will be able to record internet radio
and its much cheaper. Also humanware is very slow to update, fix bugs,

Ah! well you've probably hit the nail right on the head when it comes to
the download speed if everything goes through the Humanware server.
Yep, the Wireless chip seems a little outdated but after all! we're
talking all things Humanware and for the blind here aren't we .
On 2/05/2017
In addition to what you said about the slow download speed of the Victor
stream second generation, I feel that the chip for the wireless receiver
could be more sensitive. Another thing I believe is that the internet
streams seem to go through a server controlled by Humanware for the most
part.
OK, that brings up a question. Whenever I try to add credentials to
the ABWA Australian library, the Stream only accepts numbers in my
user id. I got this username several years ago when Greg was
publicizing the access for users in the U.S. Are new usernames now

Works well with most networks, providing they don't use a web

manual from the humanware site or press and hold key one to read as
