Wireless G is fine for music and medium quality video (even full DVD quality if you get a good, consistent signal) but it's absolutely useless for HD video or if more than 2 or three users are using it heavily at the same time.

Obviously it's the wireless kit that struggles the most so you need very good quality stuff. My mate (who's installed a few media centres in his time) reckons that the Netgear wireless - N stuff works really well and can cope with HD video.

If there are any wireless laser's out there, don't you think the cost per sheet from one of those eventually pay for the higher cost of the machine and supplies, Thomas?

Not strictly a PC question but cyco is the man to ask....

I'm looking at buying a server for my house, for data storage, need to rip 1000+ cds.... would it be perfectly feasible to have said server hidden away somewhere with a wifi card in it and stream music to an external source? (ie my mac) can a wifi adhoc network cope with the speed of data needed for music? videos? etc......

Ideally I don't want to run a network cable for it!

ta!


Wouldnt a NAS do what you want, rather than a server?
Something like this: Lacie 3TB NAS
Cheaper than a server.

@Jc

Can you get wireless NAS drives? I thought they were still mostly ethernet?

If you can then yeah, might be easier!
