RE: Should I go wireless or not?
Okay, yesterday, or whatever day it was (too many parties) Johan helped me out with this

As general advice, get decent security, but if you have an iPod touch or iPhone, the max security compatible is WEP, so you may as well add specific MAC addresses to an access list so only specific computers may access the network.

Should you go wireless or not? Due to speed reasons, wired is better— but not much. Spend about $30 on a USB/PCI card and you should lose only about .1mbps of speed.
Example: my download speed is about 2.9Mbps wired from my computer. I downloaded the speedtest.net app for iPhone and tested the speeds on my iPod, and the speed varied from 2.01 to 2.9Mbps.

There is minimal speed difference, just ensure that you have a steady wifi connection, or just stay wired if you wish.

Turns out as much as I dislike I may be stuck with my old wired connection and placement. :/

I hate my shifter placement ._.

Currently cheating on TT with SO...don't tell KaraK pls
