Wi Fi and Hi Fi


Anyone in Audiogon land using Wi Fi (802-11b or 802-11g) to connect their computers to high speed internet?

Are there any issues with noise or interference with nearby high end audio components?

High speed is finally coming to our neighborhood via cable and I am looking at alternatives to connect our five computers.

If you can run CAT 5 cable rather than use wi-fi, you should have more consistent speed and certainly better security. Further, it strikes me that the fewer wireless signals that are generated in close proximity to anything (including the people in the house), the better off one is. There may or may not be interference (or health effect) from using wi-fi but there certainly isn't one if you don't.

Having said that, I have a 802.11b system as it was the only way to get hi-speed access my son's computer without doing things that would upset my wife aesthetically. Hmmm, WAF exisits with computers too.
