I agree - having moved house, it was no longer practical to have my
wireless router and the PC running SlimServer in the same room, so I
tried to run it wirelessly, with constant problems.  My solution was to
replace the wireless from PC to router with a new 85mps Homeplug set-up
(which sends ethernet via the mains wiring), and it works really well.
Not a cheap solution, but solidly reliable.
