RE: [RT] wired vs wireless lan for trading

FWIW: I was trading at a Prop shop 3 years ago....and each workstation had a wireless capabilities that were soon replaced with Fast Ethernet.

Of course, the technology could have improved by now.

Subject: [RT] wired vs wireless lan for trading

I run a two PC workstation, wired to a router, collecting IB futures data for

Tradestation 2000i. Would a wireless router handle the load as well as what I've got now?

 

Soon, fortunately, my ISP will replace the current normal DSL with 100 mbps fiber. Might a wireless router be a bottleneck, more than a wired one?  Any other hardware considerations for fully utilizing a fiber optic connection?

 

Thanks for any ideas on this. For the first time I have a use for wireless LAN, but I don't want to sacrifice my data collection in any way.
