Attempting to go more digital so bought a Dacmagic today after of couple happy days using Spotify via laptop/headphone connection to my naim (Thread on Computer-based music)

Unfortunately while my wireless can cope with Spotify it's cutting out when playing 192k files from PC in bedroom , wireless router is Linksys WRT150N but laptop is only G , bedroom is only 6 metre away but walls are brick with chimney breast in direct line. Anyone recommend something suitable repeater/extender to allow FLAC/Lossless. Have a wooden floor so running direct Ethernet not very feasible. Ultimately If I like the convenience/qualty I'd have external NAS connected to router , HDD's in living room would lead to DIVORCE , only got away with DACMAGIC on the proviso it could possibly mean all the CD's could join the Vinyl in the attic..

Help please guys ..

Well I use the Linksys DMA2100 media center extender and it works perfectly. My router is a G+. My pc is in my bedroom and the Dacmagic is far further than 6m away. I rip music to WMA Lossless using WMP.
