Cheers.

1255662 2012-01-25 01:06:00 Wireless has more latency than Ethernet (usually), especially those thompson ones. When I was setting up some rural folks with boradband/wireless I was getting about 30%-40% signal (forgot the dB) at their office. Latency was at around 350ms, the router was <25m away, max sustainable data transfer rate was about 30kpbs. 10m from router yielded 80-125ms latency with a transfer rate of 400-600 kbps, only gained about 10% signal strength.
