Movies Cut Out After 5 Minutes

After retrieving the show and it starts to play, it goes off and starts the retrieving process again. It now takes 60 minutes to watch a 25 minute program! The long full length movies are now impossible to complete at one time, and not enjoyable. I have checked with WII/Nintendo support and have checked connection with wireless....all good.

Your internet provider is the culprit. A slow or dirty signal will cause this problem. You can have your provider check their equipment and you can check with them for a faster connection option. It will cost more for a faster connection, but it would be worth it if you want to stream movies.

Sounds like you have a slow connection. If you have DSL, this is what you can expect. If you have broadband, you should contact your provider to check your connection - you may need what is called a warm boot.
