I assume that you used UDP (not TCP) to broadcast the stream. Wireless access
points/routers have two settings "Beacon Interval" and "DTIM" should be
adjusted when using large UDP streams. DTIM *must* be set to 1 and the beacon
interval should be lowered to less than 100 ms (experiment until you have a
good performance). A good quality access point helps too (e.g. Linksys) as
does a short distance between the wireless devices.
