What would the difference be between wireless or wired? Save for a tiny bit of interference, even 802.11b wouldn't be the bottleneck on your connection since it's 11Mb.

There's a SLIGHT overhead of encapsulating TCP packets to 802.11. So, theoretically a wired connection would yield a higher (only SLIGHTLY) rate over wireless.

 If Cox ever upgrades the service in Vegas, my downspeed will get a LOT faster. They'll always be stingy with the upspeed I figure, unless I upgrade to a custom business account or something... --T.J.
