I've got a netgear router that i've had for a few years, pretty standard one, 802.11g i think........
My question is, is it worth upgrading to a faster 802.11n router? I'm on 10MB cable broadband, which does run consistently at 10mb when wired, and i run the PS3, a laptop, and the iphone occasionally..... Would it make the wireless noticeably faster? Or is there no point with only a 10MB connection? -------------------- |

From what I understand, as long as what you're connecting to the wireless N is N compatible and not just G, then yes, it's worth the upgrade.
Have you checked cnet to see what they say? They're a GREAT source for this kind of info and opinions. http://www.cnet.com --------------------  |
