Should I be able to watch a 2 GB DVD rip streaming from one mac (both new UMBPs) to another Mac using the Airport Express? Currently, it hangs. The DVD rip is on an external hard drive connected via Firewire no one of the Macs.

Should be fine. Is there any interference or anything taking up bandwidth? Are you running on n-only @5ghz or in mixed mode?

Mixed mode...but onlyl N wireless devices on it right now. I have the dual band model which doesn't reduce speed even in G mode.
