Hi!
Does anyone have experience about wireless N routers? Is that airborne 300mbps (theoretical) enough for Eve or should i stick with wires? - cel |

Hell yea it is. I use the older technology below N (I think it's 50mpbs) and have never ever had a problem.

Even 54mbit/s more than enough. -- Thanks CCP for cu |

Leaving updates out of the equation, and latency, a 56k connection is more than enough to play EVE on, there is very little in the way of actual amounts of data transferred. ------------------------------------------ FTW \o/ |

802.11n is fine for EVE, for FPS on the other hand.... no.

I have a pretty solid 100+ Mbps on my Netgear wireless n router running dd-wrt.com firmware. No issues with any games through it especially eve.

Hate to say it but I've been known to run eve over a flaky 28.8 modem connection before and it will even let you do high sec mining but I wouldn't suggest you do it often .
Btw fps isn't directly hooked to connection speed I've had 60+ fps with dial-up connections even when flying around in system or auto-piloting between quiet systems. Eve just doesn't use much network bandwidth most the time.
I wouldn't try something like PvP though where it does use more bandwidth and update timing is much more important -- Finds camping stations from the inside much easier. Been known to write some PHP code for API from time to time too. |

Guys? Don't you just felt into "best processor for internet"? It was pretty lame marketing step from Intel, made me laughing alot. Don't repeat it please here. Game FPS has nothing to do with your internet connection. -- Thanks CCP for cu |

FPS used in the context of "is my connection fast enough" usually means "First Person Shooter", the kind of game you want a really low latency connection for :p

I'm running EVE over draft-n wireless. The latency is kinda high, but EVE seem to be fine with that. |

Edited by: Thargat on 15/11/2008 21:30:07 I personally don't see much improvement at home compared to a 3G cellular connection (with 150ms average RTT and 0.384/7.2Mbit UL/DL). Im running Eve partly on a 802.11n wireless network (D-Link DIR 855) and a gigabit connection. I get some 270mbit/s with 1ms delay on the wireless (19ms towards the eve cluster vs 18ms on the gigabit Cat6 line). Basicly the bandwith is a non-issue as far as eve goes. A 4hr POS battle with caps n fighters peaks at some few kbit/s in bandwith usage. |
