ATTN: Gamers that play on wireless networks

As most of you know that gaming on a wireless networks via PC or consoles that the latency really does suck in a major way. This of course will always be an issue with wireless but I have to tell you that the new Wireless N Draft 2.0 access points/routers are making this a thing of the past. I just upgraded my homw wireless network and I am getting blazing damn speeds such as 150Mbps compared to my old G router that I would maybe get 36Mbps. The latency in games is improved 10 fold with the wireless N standard and I cannot be more impressed in the performanced I have received from browsing the net to playing on my XBOX 360 connected via a wireless N game adapter. This is just amazing for the type of speed increase you are going to see. Now for the wireless uninformed out there if you want the benefit of Wireless N out there you will need to buy a 802.11n or Wireless N access point or router and then buy a wireless N network adapter or game adpaters for your endpoints such as laptops, game adapters, PCI, PCIx, USB PC adpaters. Now if you just upgrade your access point/router to a G\N and you do not change over or ad a N compliant adpater you will still connect at the speeds you are used to.
