Hey all, I have an RBK50 system with router + 1 sattellite. These are connected via a cat 5e hardwired cable across my house. On the main router I have a Synology NAS device plugged in with...

Try a reset and set up from scratch. Run a quick test to see if streaming problem is resoved before applying last saved configuration.
Possible that the bandwidth of these files could be too high going from Satellite to NAS.
I would run a test as well and connect the player to the back of the router or vs versa, connect NAS to satellite with player and test.

Thanks.
This was all working fine before my switch to an Orbi based system, so if its too much for Orbi, I guess I'm abandoning ship.

let us know how it does after reset.
I have a similar set up however my streaming device and NAS are on the LAN side connect via Gb switch and not between the Satellite and router. I do have a wireless bridge connected to the Satellite which services a DISH Joey. Streams video fine there however the bandwidth I presume is way smaller than raw BD data.

I did a "factory reset" via the web UI and still experienced issues. However, reading more, perhaps I need to do a paper-clip resent on the satellite and router seperately?
For fun I unplugged the backhaul cable from the satellite and plugged it directly into the Blu-Ray player (so essentially the Blu_Ray and NAS are both hard-wired into the router). 1+ hour of movie and no pauses yet.
