Got my CX-919. Few Questions

[iamafreak]

Got my shiny new CX-919 last week from geekbuying. It came pre-installed with 4.2 stock firmware.
Have been playing around with it for last few days.
Youtube works great. Wifi speed is decent. Have connected a powered 1 TB drive to test a few videos.
720p movies work very well. Havent tried any 1080p yet.

Some minor problems that I have faced so far.

1. When I switch on the TV and power on the stick, the wifi fails to connect. It gives me a message "Authentication Problem"
I have to switch off the wifi and switch it on again. It connects sometimes, sometimes not. If it doesn't , I have to click on my wifi connection and select connect. Again it connects sometimes, sometimes not.
It takes one or two tries till it connects successfully. I have other devices connected to the router, so i dont think its a problem with the router.

2. When I open some webpages which has flash content, like videos, live streaming etc. It gives me a message, that I need to update my flash player. I think the flash player that is pre installed in the device is the latest version. Is there any work around?

3. I would like to wirlessly stream some HD movies that are stored on my pc to my TV via the stick. What is the best way to achieve this. A detailed guide will be much appreciated. My internet speed is not that great. Its around 16mbps down.

4. I have been closely following the 4.2.2 - Finless ROM 1.4 and 4.1.1 - Finless ROM 1.4 threads. From what I have read 4.1.1 seems to be more stable. Would you recommend updating to 4.1.1 finless ROM?

Thanks for reading!
Cheers

I had similar issues with my fist stick ( Justop K9B ) and eventually tried a different router - now works every time. It may not be an issue with your router as you probably have other devices working perfectly ok on it, as I did with my old one. But my TV stick was very temperamental, until I changed to a newer router. Old one was b/g new one is b/g/n, It shouldn't make any difference but ti did for me.

Another thing to do is see if you can get a wifi analyser working and that you are not on the same channel as your neighbors.

Also make sure you have a 2amp power supply. Some of the supplied ones can also cause problems.
