You know sometimes Ethernet is better then wireless my game play lagged like hell so hope switching to Ethernet solves it.
Anywho anyoneknow about TREdnet ethernet splitter or whatever there called. I have one and was wondering if I used that if my connection may slow down I'll only have about 3 things on it

I love wireless, too many cables already.
If you are using N technology there is no such thing as lag _________________________________________________________

Wireless lag exists in any wireless tech especially if there's lots of wireless background interference caused by other wireless devices. _________________________________________________________

I got a 12ms ping on wireless, and a 5ms ping on WIRED. you know what im sticking with. lol
1 second is 1000ms so having 5ms or 10ms is pretty much the same...it's instantaneous _________________________________________________________

Not true, if i played wireless, i wont ever get host.. But when i go wired, that 7 MS gives me host nearly every single time, i can guarantee it. Host is always the person with the lowest ping from my experience.

Depends on the type of router you have I guess.

Speed matters too or better said as data transfer rates.
Wireless 300 mbps or wired 1000 mbps - you tell me.
See in my house we have all sorts of devices and computers using the home network like the VOIP phone, 360, 2 TV streaming boxes, computer backups to a server and so on. Wireless does doesn't cut it here so we do a mixed of both depending on the requirement but my 360 is direct to external firewall on wire so nothing interferes with my TV, movie watching and game play. _________________________________________________________ 10% VIP Discount (Coupon Code: HQ-VIP-001 ) - Signup for web hosting at www.TweakedHosting.com/clients/aff.php?aff=004 and earn the HQ network of sites recurring income!
