some media extenders are picky.. and you said you're using it for HD content..

I have trouble streaming .mkv formats through my 360.. you may have to do some file container re-codes or audio setup or something..

what media extender do you plan on using?

what do you mean by that? is there something special to do when using wireless to stream hd?

Had the same problem, in the end I decided that I had to rip and decode dvd's into xvid format so I can then use a 360 to view any shows/movies that I have on my WHS.

I thought about using wireless but in the end decided to use ethernet over power -- so far I've had some good results on it, even on HD stuff. I do see some periodic pausing, which is a little annoying but for now I've decided to live with it; since I'm too lazy to just start the project of running ethernet around the house.
