Faster than 75% of Finland, so the internet's about the same as the US over there then I'm assuming lol. I kind of want to move to Sweden one day (since I don't know a word of any foreign language and that'd be easier to transition to). I'd presume that it's roughly the same speeds since Finland is a neighboring country.

Edit: Nevermind, you're in Sweden! That's not bad at all.

YES. it cuts it in half, at LEAST.
Right......except not. Wifi's standard transfer speed now a days is 54 mb/s iirc. So unless your internet connection is faster than this, there is no difference in speed. Any reduction in actual speed would be due to other factors not a wireless connection itself. Food for thought.

I think what he's trying to state is that wifi isn't as stable, which it isn't, but yeah outside of 54mbs it's fine. I surf on wifi but I use wired to play games due to the instability at times. Depends where you live too, obviously, less outside interferences the better - but I live in an apartment complex so there's a lot of interference throughout the day. Probably a bunch of jerks trying to steal my connection to look at obscure pornography too!

So when I play someone using wifi and running nothing else except PC/PS3 and play that same person after requesting he hardwires it, that massive improvement in connection that I feel must not even exist. It's not real and I didn't see, feel, and notice it myself. Is that what you are implying?

Don't believe everything you hear. Wireless on Mame is absolutely unplayable, but a MASSIVE difference in connection improves when the connection is wired. That's a fact,.... you can argue with it all you want....but I have my own 2 eyes, thank you.

You can lock people out....that's what I did, it prevents anyone from leeching off you. I forget how it's done, but it's a setting in your router done through the PC.

I'm just saying it's not wifi itself. I'm not saying it doesn't have a difference, but it's due to external factors. Interference being the biggest. 2.4ghz is used by a lot of stuff.Trust the I.T. guy brother. ;)

Just bring them over and you can all look at the porn together! Then they won't need to steal your bandwidth later.

LOL When someone says you have a shitty connection it doesn't mean they are personally insulting you. Sometimes i think people who take it personal have mental issues. it's a fucking internet connection people.....it's not like someone just slapped your mom in front of you. WHY do people ALWAYS take offense to it?
because internet sarcasm works so well. I'm glad you think I have mental issues. Wanna find any other deficiency with me? Its like having a shrink, but not having to pay for one. Long story short: I have a really bad internet connection and there's absolutely NOTHING I can do to change it save for moving, which, unless someone else is going to pay for, isn't going to happen.

Hold on, Tennesse is the first place in the US to actually get their shit together outside of Los Angeles and New York? Does anywhere else even have FiOS? I can't seem to find any other major city that does. Maybe Philly. But yeah, the 'standard' in the US is absolute piss. South Korea, Japan and a bunch of other countries have great standards but ours is garbage, and there's even worse countries than us out there...

I would murder someone if I had to use DSL at that speed though...
I have fios in vt.

2 years later, anything below ten is unacceptable lol
