I noticed after the update to 7.0 i constantly have to restart my Apple TV 3 to get anything to play. After a restart everything works great, airplay, playing movies and so on, but after it sits for awhile, everything is slow to load and sometimes doesn't, after a quick restart everything is fine again, my internet is not the problem, all my other devices work perfect, i did a factory reset and same thing, anyone else have this problem?

No Wi-Fi problems here

I have not noticed any problems with my two ATV3s using an old Airport Extreme (first Gig-E/N version).

Addendum: As a test I streamed a movie locally, from my iTunes collection. It played fine. For a second test, I played a movie from iCloud - no problems encountered.

Yes, I have had this issue with mine off and on since U6 but it does seem to have worsened with 7. Particularly with Netflix. :confused:

No issues to report since I factory reset my Apple TV because it would not update to 7.0
