You can add a 3rd problem.
For power managment reasons, APs are only allowed to send broadcast or
multicast traffic at specific dates, separated by a "DTIM interval". If
that interval is too big an the stream bitrate to high, the APs internal
buffers can overflow, resulting in data loss. The solution is to reduce
the DTIM interval or increase the size of the buffers in the AP
settings.
