When you go to "available WiFi networks" from any of your wireless
computers do you see networks other than yours?  It would be best to do
this with a laptop at the same location as your SB3.  
What you are looking for is a strong WiFi signal broadcasting on the
same WiFi ch as yours causing possible interference.

General shot in the dark (but very easy to try):  change your your
routers ch to ch 1, see if it improves.  Then repeat for ch 11.  If you
and your neighbors are all on ch 6 (very common) then going to 1 or 11
can help you gain a signal boost on your network.

You may want to temporarily try your SB3 wired right next to your
router.  This will eliminate or conclusively prove a WiFi issue.  It
doesn't sound like you need speakers to test your issues (IR remote
sluggish, VU meter will show if station has dropped, buffering will
display).
