802.11b USB Adapter?

[quote name='Sleepkyng']what are the real advantages of G over B?

if your house has cable, or dsl, isn't that going to bottleneck it anyways?[/QUOTE]

Distance from unit, speed, future use.

G is as low as Id go now. I think theres even Super G. (too $$$ for my tastes) Anyway, if you shop deals you can get G (on sale) for B (regular price) Why not take the best for same money I say.

Youd have to switch over your whole system to have it all run a G speeds but sooner or later you ll switch anyway. I say take it part by part.
 
i thought the speed change was negligible because the AP is the bottleneck,

i have B and G, and they download from the web at the same rate.

However it really bites when you're transferring files over your personal network from one computer to the other, so you might as well get G (which is nicely backwards compatible).
 
$5 this week at Staples for the linksys.

As far as the xbox one, the dlink bridge tends to run the cheapest but I had little to no luck getting it work well.

thats the router.

and a note on this wireless arguement. The only difference between G and B is if you are gonna be transfering files through a network. It really doesnt make much of a difference otherwise
