i prefer wired because i get a better connection speed vs wireless. but i also like wireless cuz u dont have to be plugged up to the cables, you can also travel with a wireless connection, overall i prefer a wired connection when im at home and wireless if im traveling or at work yea i know i cant make a simple answer thats becasue theres benefits to both of them as well as downsides

what do you mean by travel? I don't think you can get wireless anywhere, you need to be in a hotspot.

Well, I don't know about your country, but over here in Sweden we have a special kind of "portable modem" from which you can connect to the internet from about 99% of the country.

No idea what sort of technology it uses.

Ours are cheap, maybe slightly more than ordinary broadband, but the speeds are abysmal. You can't even use Youtube with them.

The same can actually be achieved through a portable Phone, Zig.
Theres a feature on some new phones called "modem" where it acts as one and a wireless network.

Neat, huh?

@DM: so it isn't really worth it anyway?

@Neyro: phones typically have bad web browsers and most phones still need a hotspot to use the internet. also, i haven't heard about that feature, but I'd bet a lot of money that those phones are very expensive and that the feature costs extra money

Wireless Internet is horrible. I tried it and it was only a bit faster than dial-up.
Wireless Network(Thats when you have a modem but a router)depends on your wireless router. Don't buy a cheap one because it will make you want to kill yourself. Buy a linksys router.Some of the best. There is only a SLIGHT difference in speed.Hardly noticable. It never goes out unless there is someone close to you with another wireless network,which is to be expected. Besides that,the internet is perfect with that router. I hate that my family's internet provider is the only high-speed in my area.They run a monopoly and they get away with it by using different names.Stupid Home Telephone!

You mean like how with cable companies they can buy areas that only THEY can provide service to (taking away the people's right to choose)?

anyway, wireless signals interfere with each other? that must makes things much worse

Pretty much,yeah. Not all wireless signals mess it up.When another router is close,it goes out.

i would definately have to go with wired. Its much faster and more efficent. It may be more money if you have to wire a computer from a long distance but its definately worth it. If your not to concerned with speed and you just want a basic connection i would choose wireless

Lol. I so choose wired. I do use wireless network but thats so much different than wireless internet. Seriously, wireless network is the best. Only sacrifice a bit of speed to go where ever you want in your house. It's so worth the bit of speed loss. Wireless internet is just slow. It's faster than dial-up but slower than high-speed. And you keep losing your internet. You have to be near a freaking tower for you to have net. If you do have satilite its all good. But its extremely expensive to have sat. wireless internet. So, all in all, wireless network is better.

I use wireless on my laptop and can roam around the house freely...
(note - for this to work properly you need to have your router centralized in the area)

also I do torrents with wireless as well and all works great.

I vote wireless...

On games, Wireless can be better.
Depends on connection too.
Wireless tends to have less connection, but sometimes its good.
