I'm changing my vote. I'm hardwired ... seems to work better for me, but I need a longer ethernet cable so I can cam in my bedroom.

wireless. The location of my box is too out of the way. Basically my cable line comes through an outlet near my ceiling and drops down. The box of course is on my TV stand, however it sits in my living room. I like to cam from my bedroom on my desktop.

Mostly hardwired, but go wireless sometimes (cables are my cat's favorite dessert).

my roomie/aka landlord says if I hook my laptop up to the wires that are in my room, it will be better? He said the modem's in the wires? Idk, so do I have to get that e cable or whatever?


He might be saying that there is a connection in your room that you can plug directly into. It might look similar to a regular plug outlet but instead has the ethnernet connection. That makes it where all rooms can be connected to the router by wire without having cables run all over, because they are run in the walls or under the carpet.

That's what my husband did in our house, anyway.

I am hardwired most of the time unless I'm away from home.

I want every single byte of upload bandwidth I can muster because it seems to help my traffic and I can make more $ faster.
