This problem sounds like a WIFI interference problem. Could be a new neighbor, etc.
can you temporarily wire to router with ethernet (just as a test to make sure there is no problem with the BOOM itself). Keep in mind that simply plugging in ethernet cable doesn't switch the boom to ethernet, you have to go through boom menu to connect to ethernet network connection. If boom doesn't buffer with ethernet, then boom is fine and wifi network in the culprit.
download something like inSSIDer to see what nearby wifi networks exist, what channels they are on, etc. Use 1, 6, or 11 if possible and choose the one with the weakest number of nearby users of this channel.Location 1: VortexBox Appliance 6TB (2.2) > LMS 7.7.2 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet)
Location 2: VBA 3TB (2.2) > LMS 7.7.2 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio)
Office: Win7(64) > LMS 7.7.2 > SqueezePlay
Spares: VBA 4TB, SB3, Touch (3), Radio (3), CONTROLLER
Controllers: iPhone4S (iPeng), iPad2 (iPengHD & SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.7 on Win7(64) laptop
