Jake Ludington has a post up detailing the method he used to get HD video streaming wirelessly, without interruptions. His method involves using two routers to isolate the connection between the Media Center PC and the Xbox 360:
"Each wireless access point creates the equivalent of a single wired connection to your router. The more computers you connect to a single access point, the more you fill up the available connection, potentially resulting in an overloaded connection. By putting the Xbox 360 on it's own access point, you are providing the full capacity of that access point's available bandwidth."
It apparently works for him; he's streaming 1080p HD content "without any hiccups." Showoff.
[Thanks, Jake]

Pretty good advice there. I currently have a secondary laptop with Media Center 2005 in my entertainment center and it's hardwired (ethernet) to my router which is also hardwired to my Xbox 360, so no lag and seamless HD streaming. But when I decide to truly go mobile with my WMCE PC, I'll definitely follow his advice. Great stuff.
