I've been wireless for a year. It's fucking great! I have a Netgear wireless router and access card for my laptop. With my cable modem attached to it I can get average speeds of 1.1mb on the second floor about 40 feet towards the back of my home through concrete walls!! I can get up to 1.5mb on my first floor when in the same room with the router which is just as fast as the wired connection. I can use it on the patio and at the coffee shop in the middle of the block! I love it!

I do have problems setting it back up after using it in hotels and other locations though. Some of the settings change when I do that. Then I have to call Netgear and spend time trying to break down what I am saying into easy to understand syllables for the overnight tech support based in India.
