AirPlay via iTunes skipping when streaming to multiple AirPort Express's


i'm not sure if right forum this, know guys helpful , know answer.

i'm using itunes on 2011 macbook pro stream music. have 1 airport express 'n' in living room connected home theater, , 1 apx 'b/g' in bedroom connected pair of speakers on desk. when streaming music either 1 room or other have no problems. however, when streaming music both @ once occassionally experience audible skipping, or sound dropping out entirely several seconds @ time. intermittent, , doesn't seem correlate increased network traffic. in fact, there's no other network traffic @ when happens.

caused mixing b/g , n routers? upgrading older apx 'n' fix streaming problems? there quick fixes can increase network bandwith or otherwise improve network performance , fix issue?

appletv have 802.11n , possible use 1 instead of apx same functionality? (see, tied atv/ht forum there.)
 

i don't have answer, have similar problem may shed light.

have 2 ap expresses set airplay, , 1 of them has skipping problem describe. 1 skips 1 have set wireless base station, 1 doesn't skip used solely airplay. suspicion it's dual use wireless base station , airplay device causes choke.

incidentally, 1 has problems n router. 1 not have problems older b/g model.
