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!!!

How 'bout you look at your other posts before you make a new thread.

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.

Bandwidth is the speed in which your Internet connection operates. A low
bandwidth means that smaller files will not be accessible. Despite what
many people will say, it controls more that just the speed of your
Internet Connection. It can control the size of the files you can
download or upload. The bigger the bandwidth the faster you can go.

About the routers, the 'B' is not the same as the 'G'. A 'B' router can
connect to other 'B' computers and router, but a 'G' router can connect
to both 'B' and 'G'. You can also use a WiFi router for more than just
the Internet. Many corporate networks need a fast connection so that all
the hundreds of executives can connect without a loss in speed. You can
also use WiFi for your Nintendo DS to play against Worldwide opponents.
The reasons for these super fast systems are varied. Some people like to
play games or watch videos with High Def picture and sound. Some people
are afraid that in a few years technology will change and what is now
high speed will become considered slow, so they get the fastest and most
expensive system around.

I hope that this answers your question.
