Anyone have Apple TV?

Just bought one of these last night. I was able to stream a movie from my personal computer two levels above me just fine but when I went to preview a movie for rent it was extremely slow. I read I may have to play with the DNS settings on my router and will do so but I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this.

Thanks!

Does this happen on all movies you try to preview? It could be that the iTunes Store is just being slow...

I've had one for about a year and haven't had that problem.

Previewing worked for me the following day but I haven't tried renting yet. There's still a fair number of films on Netflix to keep me busy.

Lots of the stuff on Netflix, especially the old stuff, is low quality. Netflix also adjust quality based on the available bandwidth, I think. Apple TV doesn't make those kind of compromises. Could bandwidth be an issue?
