I know the speed comparison of 802.11 G is five times faster then the B standard for wireless Internet?

Question

but what is the comparision for 802.11 B standard to a typical ethernet conection. I am using a MotorolaVT2442 currently

Answer 1

Ethernet is 10/100 Mb/s OR 10/100/1000 Mb/s. Referred to as Gigabit Ethernet.

802.11b is 11Mb/s
802.11g is 54Mb/s
802.11n is 300Mb/s

So Gigabit Ethernet at 1000Mb/s is 3X faster than 802.11n.
The major concern is typically that you don't want cat5e cabling running all over your home. It's not cheap to have a professional install it correctly either at $100 per hour typically.

802.11n has a Max range of 70M indoors and 160M outdoors.

I do a bit of both.

My main computer and my server have Gigabit NICs that connect via cat5e cable to my DIR-655 D-Link wireless router's Gigabit ports. My laptop is 802.11n wireless adapter. My two printers user 802.11g wireless. My fiancee's laptop is 802.11g wireless.

Answer 2

By today's standard 11B at 11 Mbps is likely be way slower than today's Ethernet, here are the run downs of Ethernet cabling I know:

Thicknet/Regular '80s cabling: 2 Mbps, ancient
Thinnet alternative to Thicknet: 2 Mbps, ancient
Cat 4 Twisted Pair: 10 Mbps, ancestral to what we use
Cat 5 Fast Ethernet: 100 Mbps
Cat 6 Gigabit Ethernet: 1000 Mbps

Answer 3

802.11b is 11Mbits max. but the technology for wireless and "typical" ethernet are not the same because "typical" ethernet has less overhead. So if the speeds were rated the same "typlical" ethernet would still be faster. With that said Typical ethernet would be 10Mbits, 100 Mbits or 1Gbits depending on you equipment and setttings.

Answer 4

get on the spot n. the clarification why ? Draft 802.11n hurries as much as 14x swifter than on the spot G The D-link RangeBooster N™ Router (DIR-625) is a draft 802.11n compliant gadget that supplies as much as 12x swifter speeds* and 4x farther variety* than an 802.11g on the spot community collectively as staying backward nicely suited with 802.11g and 802.11b instruments. connect the RangeBooster N Router to a cable or DSL modem and furnish severe-velocity cyber web get entry to to dissimilar computers, recreation consoles, and media gamers. Create a secure on the spot community to share photos, documents, song, printers, and extra, from extra advantageous distances in the time of your total homestead or workplace. With D-link’s award-prevailing QoS engine that prioritizes time-delicate on line site visitors, this router facilitates tender cyber web telephone calls (VoIP) and responsive gaming

Answer 5

802.11b has data rates of 4.5mbit/s

ethernet has a data rate of either 100mbit/s
or 1000mbit/s
