My 4S is the only device that lags like crazy when using mirroring to an Apple TV. iPad 2 works just fine, so I know it's something with the 4S. Like the title says, how's mirroring with the 4S going for you?

Mirroring itself runs pretty smooth for me. Can be very slightly laggy at times, but it does it's job much better than I expected.
 
no problems here when tested.
also airplay-ing a 1080p video from iphone to appletv was flawless.
 
I love the concept, but it lags, and freezes all the time on the 4S and Ipad 2. More so with the 4S, I haven't complained to much, because I figure it will get better with time, but when I go on you-tube and see it working flawlessly I get a little upset. Not sure what the deal is. I thought it might be related to the fact that this apple TV is a distance from the WiFi, so I will try it with my other apple TV that is about 10ft away. Oh and I will also add that the lagging and freezing takes place on graphic intense apps like Modern Combat 3, other then that it seems to do ok. Best game ever, modern combat 3!!!!

Man, I wish I knew what my issues were. My router is a Time Capsule so everything in the equation is made by Apple. I called Apple yesterday regarding really slow upload speeds at home on my 4S and the Apple Store is looking at it Saturday. What's strange is that my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 get great upload speeds. :confused:
 
Pretty funny actually, I was playing Agry Birds on my iPhone 4S Mirrored to ATV2 connected to my 42" Plasma and the dogs could not figure out where the Bird noises were coming from, so instead of barking their ears all stood up and they looked goofy, I will try it again and take a small video of it, pretty funny watching 3 Pugs look for a bird :D
