I have N66U with merlin 33 build and everything is wonderful on wired connections but video streaming is terrible and keeps buffering a lot both on 2.4 and 5 ghz bands even though I get full wifi signals and my isp speed is 50MBPS.
Any suggestions on things I can do to get my online video streaming working without issues on wifi?

Checked the speed on wifi using speed test app to confirm the speeds are close to wired connections. Movies seem to stream ok via browser but not through native YouTube app on Android, iPhone and ipad.

I'm having the same problem with Android devices, but only older Android. Android 4.x doesn't have the same choppy streaming issues as I've seen with 2.x devices.
