Wireless Int' Access

I am currently using the Netgear 834g wireless router for my internet access. This runs at 54Mbps - I am currently on 512 broadband and am thinking of upgrading speed.

Will it make any difference to the speed that I download/upload, if I do upgrade due to me being restricted by the wirless speed of 54mbps?

I hope that made sense

Thanks
Steven

    Not a shed of difference :). The router is capable of working about 108 times faster than your current broadband speed of 512KB

    Your router will have no problem running the extra BB speed at all, and yes you will notice a difference to your up/download speed, it will be a lot quicker!!! :D
