Guaranteed Buffering (50sec In)

Stream is up: http://65.26.204.150:8000
Using: SAM Broadcaster and Shoutcast Server
Running @ 96kbps, High Quality, 44.1kHz Stereo with mp3PRO encoder (and various other comboss, read on...)

This stream has been online and running with no problems for literally months now. I've been able to support 5-7 people with my connection just fine.

Recently, I moved some of my hardware into a closet (to de-clutter my office). The hardware (and router settings) have not changed at all.

When I listen to the stream, it connects right away and is smooth, but then it starts to buffer quite fast at 50 seconds into the stream. When I reconnect, it plays smooth again, but then at 50seconds, it buffers again like crazy.

This all happens when I am the only one on the stream. I've tried lowering the bitrate all the way, to like 8kbps, and it doesn't buffer. Then I tried raising it to 80kbps/mono, and then it starts to buffer again at the 1 minute mark.

Set max users aside for a moment, and tell me why the stream can't even play straight for 1 person (me)? Yet, 2hours ago when I had the same config in a different room, it played fine for 7??
