| Question about SPEED I am a bit confused, if someone can please clarify. I use Comcast Internet which gives me a connection of 6mbps. 802.11b is 11mbps rate and 802.11g is 54mbps. If both standards are ALREADY faster than 6mbps why do people buy these faster routers. I don't understand. Isn't 802.11b more than enough already??? Can't figure it out? Thanks in advance if anyone can explain!!! Josell********.com |

| Re: Question about SPEED Because people don't JUST use wi-fi and wireless routers for internet. We already have wireless routers capable of speeds in excess of 200mbps (claimed). Why? For gaming is the biggest reason, as well as file transfer. Also, video and audio streaming takes up a lot of bandwidth for those that are into those setups for their home theatre. You can never have too much bandwidth/speed. |
