30 MB/s is way more than you need to stream a 1080p movie btw. BluRay is limited to 54 mbits (7 MB/s). 1080p downloads are typically around 8-10 mbits. (2 MB/s). So even 10 MB/s is more than enough to stream 1080p. If you are seeing stuttering or rebuffering, than that is due to something else (media issues, or possibly packet loss) - not the raw connection throughput.
Can you confirm that the duo is negotiating a gigabit connection? 10 MB/s is usually what you see on fast ethernet (100 mbit)
Also, if Anti-virus is off, the RN104 should be delivering about 2x the read speed you are getting.
