Mind you the "problem" seems to be present on lovefilm but she is totally sure its my RouterBoard that she is sure i have messed up (i would love to see her it qualifications) any other device works just fine, but she is the only lovefilm user.

Perhaps i should setup some torrents and the like...

I know what the others are saying about your ISP but i cant believe it is unable to stream video.
Had a quick google, suggested changing your wireless channel on the mac book pro.

Check the MBPro see if it is leaking bandwidth.

I suggest you try streaming video from other devices
