Yeah, WiFi certainly seems the culprit here, and not a big shocker with
only a 35% signal.   :(
I can tell you I can stream FLAC without issue, but that's with a 78%
signal strength.  I've even seen posts in here of people streaming FLAC
using a double-hop WiFi setup (player and PC both using WiFi), but again
I'm sure their signal strength is quite good.

To be honest, I'm quite surprised you have so few interruptions
streaming FLAC with only a 35% signal.  Maybe one or two song cut outs
per day is about as good as it can get with your current setup.

Maybe getting a WiFi repeater?  Using DD-WRT or Tomato FW to boost your
signal?  Powerline Adapters (this would be my choice in your situation)?
