Title: Wireless Network and AH
Post by: xanax on November 26, 2002, 12:51:04 PM

I was wondering if anyone has converted their home network to wireless and found any problems while playing AH.  Delay, packet loss and other  annoyances observed?

Thanks,

Xanax

Hi Xanax,

I posted this early in the week:

"I picked up the Linksys BEFW11S4  4-port wireless router ($99) this weekend and hooked up my wifes PC with a wireless Linksys PCI card. Easy to setup and works great. I played AH and Raven Shield on it with no lag. Seemed as fast as my direct connect. Now I will pick up a Linksys WET11 and hook up my Xbox wirelessly. My wife will be so pleased not to have a 30' network cable laying across the floor. "

I've seen no packet loss or speed reduction as compared to my direct connection. Overall I'm very pleased with my wireless connection. I never thought it would be this smooth.

Thanks for the reply, Makorov9.!

 I'm gonna give it a go.  Heading off right now to look at  that Linksys router.

 Thanks again,
