Could you provide some more info?

How big is the stream? Clients on 2,4 or 5? WEP, WPA, WPA2? Does it freeze on all?

We are a company that provide IPTV solutions - and want to try to offer service on wireless devices. So we played with many parameters..

Video - streams about 4-6 Mbs

Clients - both 2.4 and 5 -- the 5 gave a clearer picture, but still when more clients were added the picture simply froze on all

Open network

I need help about streaming iptv with 7982, is there a way to contact to you ?

What I think happened is that you reached the limit when an AP stops converting mc to unicast and then on all of the phones the picture froze. There is a limit at which that happens. I think by default it's 3 or 5. It can be changed, but you must ensure enough BW is available on all locations where IPTV will be serverd.
