My original query was if the receiver had an particular "optimal"
orientation. Thanks for all your thoughts, the findings for my specific
situation:

1) It didn't seem to improve flipping the horizontal plane of the
receiver vertically, in any rotation.
2) With the help of a 25' RCA cable I had in my stash, I found a better
location for the receiver, which I think the most important part is that
I moved it vertically, so that it is on the same horizontal plane as the
router. I went from 30-40% to 50-60%. It does vary quite a bit for each
"reading". 
3) I did not try the mods in the link yet.

I'm going to see how this does with regard to data streaming reliability
(buffering). I know I have options such as powerline, but probably the
best option is you can get a 100' ethernet cable for <$15 and pull it.

Something else but on topic, Through squeezebox information, I can only
get a snapshot of the signal strength. Has anyone, through a SB app, or,
say SqueezeCntrl (which I use) or similar, created a "live" display of
the % that the SB sees? Just curious. It seems like it would be useful
for tricky positioning.
