Where do you get this idea? Why in the world would I ever want to "wire" my house for the internet by running cat5 cables everywhere when I can buy a box that will do all the work for me?
- jamesaguilar 16y agoThe wireless I'm talking about is the 3G wireless. That's the wireless discussed in the article too. It obviously cannot be wifi that they are discussing because that is not a differentiating factor between this laptop and non-Chrome OS laptops.
- riprock 16y agoAs a gamer, I trust cat5 cables way more than wireless connections (I have both at home)...anything to mitigate the possibility of disconnection and higher latency. I also don't have any numbers to prove this, but I'm fairly certain my download/upload speeds are faster on cat5 than wireless as well. It's really noticeable when I remote desktop another computer on the network -- on cat5 I notice very little latency, while on wireless I get constant fps lag.
