Usually it has little effect.
Most current wireless kit works at 54Mb/s whilst my ADSL is 2Mb/s. If your wifi signal is poor it will step down to 24Mb/s, 11Mb/s, 6Mb/s etc. etc.
Do a speed test over wifi and one conencted to your router via a network cable to compare.
Lol, why didn't I think of that! Will do this, because I definitely think I'm not really getting what I'm paying for.
Nice bump, because I have an update.
Turned out, I wasn't getting what I was paying for! Got the speed upgraded from Virgin Media, and had an engineer come out to change modems, check wiring and have a cup of tea. After he left, my speed is much quicker! Woo-hoo!!!!! Getting the 10MB download speed I should be now
