It's not appealing at all. No matter which 'g' it is, wireless will never beat wired. It's simple physics. Wired will always be higher bandwidth, lower latency, and more reliable - less dropouts and more consistent speed.
Wireless is already a 'good enough' wired replacement for areas where running fibre is uneconomical, though.
