What's your Ethernet or wifi transfer rate to your AppleTV

[jlasoon]

Activity monitor is showing my ethernet transfer rate at a measly 3.8MB/s while streaming a movie. For some reason my wifi N connection to the AppleTV is faster 4MB/s.

Before I star digging around and replacing cables, I'm just curious if anyone is actually getting the theoretical max of 12.5 MB/s transfer rate to their AppleTV using ethernet.

Does it stop playing and buffer? If not then why do you care?

Just curious...

Exactly. It's just 0.2 MB diff. Unless ur having a problem, why...?

Guess it depends on hour your movie is encoded/quality etc

DVD is around 6 - 10 MB / Sec so a compress m4v would make sure to be aroudn 3 - 4 MB / Sec

It's not a constant rate, I'm getting some serious dropouts as well. But I could swear I was getting near 12MB/s transfer just a few months ago. Don't know what's changed or happened. Just making sure I'm not crazy before I start digging around.
