Will plain 'G' gear be able to keep up with 15Mbs fiber?

I know the 'B' stuff will have now won't cut it and will be the limiting factor.


Thanks 🙂 Any recomendations for a router?

The real-world maximum is around 30Mbps for 802.11g so you should be fine. 🙂 I wish I could have FIOS, by the way.

I was suprised when they said we were getting it. Our damn planing and zoning commision says no to everything that isn't run by their friends.

i was reading tomsnetworking and "G" barely gets to 30. The new belkin PRE-N rocks at around 40. I am not sure if i can post the link, but check out tomsnetworking.com and search for "Do Extended-range WLAN technologies deliver?"

You are more likely to be limited by the network outside of your control or the ISPs control.

My parent's have a 100Mbps FTTH connection, usually tops out around 9-11Mbps on the wired ethernet ports, and they have a 802.11b wireless network which feels just as fast as the wired network.

Then wouldn't the dual channel 'G' be faster?

So long as your getting full, or near-full signal strength, you should be ok.

At 15 Mb/sec, your WAN connection will always be the bottlneck.
