Jambo Has it slowed your connection down parthiban, or no difference? (I know wired is quicker, but are you getting full connection through it?)

It wouldn't slow the connection down!! The wireless is totally separate to the internet connection Smile

I meant the USB. As im guessing some only allow certain amount of data through. So if i was receiving 20mb/s, the USB might only allow 13 or something. Smile Never used one before so was just checking Smile

Well the theoretical limit of USB2 is 480mbit/sec so I don't think you're going to have a problem there. Most USB devices are limited by the speed of your CPU (they do a lot in the driver that should really be done in hardware, to save money) but I really don't think you'll have an issue.

You will be rate limited in university halls anyway! We limit everyone to 10mbit/sec here.

Toxo's already answered this, but yep no real loss - I had 54Mb network speed but with a 10Mb internet connection, so that was always the limiting factor anyway.

It'll be a shame if you are limited, remember when I was at uni late at night you had the full uni of london bandwidth at your disposal! :thumbup:
