Just checked it here, as I am at home. I knew it didn't work well enough to use at present. I was hoping that they would sort the streaming out by the end of the year.
I used Speedtest.net to check my Broadband speed on Orange - my PC is also connected wirelessly to the router, as is the Wii.
Download speed = 1058 kb/s
Upload = 376 kb/s
Basically it pauses approx 7 times per minute and each pause is over 5 seconds long. There is no lag or pausing on the PC.
At that rate, an hour long programme would take over 90 minutes to view!
Hope that helps. I really hope the Beeb tweak it and sort out the glitches as the idea of the service is great in theory, but is not working in practise.
Youtube runs flawlessly on the Wii, by the way.
