I have my AppleTV connected. I finally figured out how to stream and even that took a little while. The status bar showed very slow movement for a while and then, boom, the rest of my TV show was streamed and I was able to watch it. But I've been trying to sync for the last two hours and it's still on the same first episode. AppleTV has a wheel churning on the device panel in iTunes. On the AppleTV itself, it shows syncing but practically no movement on the status bar. Network strength seems fine (there were a few bars). What am I doing wrong? Also, AppleTV also shows practically empty. Please help!
Got a tip for us?

What is the speed of your network? The speed will vary on the type of router you have.
802.11b= up to 11Mbps
802.11g= up to 54Mbps
802.11n= up to 300Mbps
If you have a 802.11b router then it will take a long time to sync data.

I have to admit I have no idea. Probably 11b...I have the original Airport Base Station...the UFO looking like one.
Yep that is b

the data is going to transfer at about 110KBps on a good day. Your best bet would be to hook it in through an Ethernet hub or router. That way you could get 100Mbps (10 MB per second).
