How do I speed up "On Demand" to be truly "on demand"?

I have been having very slow download speeds with my on demand.  It is taking hours to download a movie, and it is not possible to "Watch now" because it buffers so badly. 

 

I have CenturyLink internet.  Testing at 18Mbps wifi and 20Mbps wired.  I can hook up my DirecTv either way.

 

Current setup: I have the CenturyLink modem/router wired to the DirecTV cinema kit.  The cinema kit is then coax connected to the HR34 receiver. 

 

Any suggestions on ports to open (and description on how, if at all possible), firewalls, etc that might be slowing this down.  Should I connect right to the 34?  Is that possible? etc...

 

I see many people here with what looks like similar issues, but no resolution yet.  I dont need to it download a movie in 5 minutes.  But it would be nice to be able to watch it right away and have it stay ahead.

 

Thanks in advance!
