Plex runs great on my wired connection to my PS4 and to the local TV where the server is connected (mac mini mid 1010, 2.4ghz core2duo, 4gb ram). However, wireless is laggy as hell and constantly buffers when playing to my Amazon Fire TV - I've played around with the playback settings from 4 mbps 720p to 1.5 mbps 480p with zero luck.

I've googled a bit on this subject with no luck, but it's pretty frustrating. Have any of you found a way to take care of an issue like this? Is there port forwarding available? Should I tell Comcast to send me a better router?

Although I have a stronger server, yours should be able to handle it. I have no issues on a FireTV Stick, so I'd point my finger directly at the lovely router you're renting from your ISP.

for me, the least reliable device for playback has been Chromecast.

The one issue I've had on the Fire Stick is that some files, albeit very few, have zero audio. Haven't been able to figure it out.
